#30daysofdresses - day 13

Friday night I hosted an event for work and wore one of my favorite new dresses.The little yellow belt was in play again, and I wore nude colored heels. This is also the dress I wore during the wedding weekend last month.H picked it out for me at Forever 21 - he loves the cut of it, I love the color and texture. It feels way more expensive than a $25 dress at F21. Also, the back has an interesting opening though I don't have a photo of that to share with you.The event went really well - mostly b/c I made the executive decision to bump up the budget and cover everything well enough. Cutting corners is just not working for our events anymore. And I had my temp overseeing two volunteers - and the three of them rocked check-in, so I didn't have to spend a moment dealing with the door.It was the first time I felt like I hosted an event - instead of running around like a crazy person (but I already said that in Saturday's post). Yay me. #levelupOh - and the bracelet is Alex and Ani (a trend that has yet to hit the west coast) from my awesome coworker (a thank you gift for helping her with her crazy event in June). While I'm not into super trendy things, I love that it's from A and also that it means energy which is EXACTLY what I need when working events, and reminds me to protect my energy levels as much as possible.Short post for a short dress ;)
