Outfit and Occasion

Outfit:

Atmosphere Sweater (Replays Thrift Shop, S. Burlington), $10.00, Mossimo Jeans (Platos Closet, Williston), $8.00, Dolce Vita Shoes (gifted), “Be the Change” necklace (gifted), Lucky Brand Scarf (gifted)

Finally explored Replays Thrift Shop, a perfect weekend activity!  This shop is kinda clued in on their more expensive donations and tailor their price tags accordingly, but you can still find great deals!  It also does not have the overwhelming nature of the Goodwill so you can check each and every item within an hour shopping spree!  This maroon sweater is soo soft and cozy for the winter!  Excited to add Replays to my list of local thrifting options!

These sleek Dolce Vita booties were a gift from my sister because her friend works for @shopdolcevita and sometimes gives my sister their samples!  Lucky me!!  THANKS JESS!

Occasion:

Bleu Seafood

With nothing specific to celebrate, Tom and I decided date night was in order anyways!  Bleu Seafood is a part of the Marriott in downtown Burlington.  It blew me away! Tasteful menu pairings that were matched in flavor.  We started off right with a crusty baguette from Red Hen, assorted and juicy olives, and delicious mussels.  For our entrees, I ordered dry cured ham wrapped monkfish with chickpea polenta fries and Tom had wild mushroom pappardelle with scallops.  My dish had a tinge of spice and everything nice!  Tom’s pasta was homemade and dressed in a creamy, oh-so-spectacular sauce.

This little gem of a restaurant may have entered my top 5 for Burlington eats…and with a town full of delectable delights, that is saying a lot!
