A very awesome day

My day yesterday was so unbelievably fun I just had to share.  I went to my first ever MN Fashion Blogger meetup and while it was a small group, it was so fun to meet some other bloggers in person.  Lindsey from Ruby Girl, Sasha from Fabuliss, Kasidy from the Fresh Factor and Chelsea from Zipped were all in attendance.  All wonderful ladies, it was nice sitting and chatting with them for a bit!  Thanks again to Lindsey for organizing the event!


Above is my outfit for the meetup.  Lindsey snapped some photos of us I'm anxious to see as well.  After the meetup I had some time left, so I headed over to the Two Birds event at b. (a resale shop).  I was so glad I did, sweet Megan and Nora had picked out a few things for me ahead of time!  I had a blast trying on fun clothes and chatting with them and also meeting Erin from Babes in Thriftland too!  I selected a few of my favorite things and while I have been trying to not spend money I think I did really well, I can't believe the amount of stuff I was able to get for the price!  Now I'm done shopping until Spring.  No more new things until March at the earliest if I can help it!  You'll see my goodies in future posts for sure!

I headed home after that and ate a quick dinner with the Pants Monkey and then we went to the Foci Minnesota Center for Glass Arts for his belated Christmas present of a glassblowing and beer tasting class.  It was a blast, we had quite a bit of help from the instructors but we got to make really cute pint glasses!  We'll get to pick them up on Monday, it'll be fun to see how they turned out.  Great Waters Brewing Co. supplied some beer to taste and also did a drawing to win free growlers - we each won one!  Pretty awesome indeed.  Below is an action shot from the evening!

Such a fun and awesome weekend, I have really enjoyed it!  Today is much more low key, just chilling for the most part!

Hope you are all having awesome weekends too!  Tomorrow begins day one of Layer Up week!

  1. i'm glad to hear that the blogger meet up was fun, i know i would have felt more comfortable meeting some local ladies with a group that small so i'm sorry it didn't work for me to come out today. the glass blowing sounded really fun too, and yay for winning a growler!
