Outfit:

Love Sam blouse (Marshalls, Williston VT), $14.00

This blouse was originally $298 at Anthropologie, selling on eBay for $100.  I had never heard of the brand, but I instantly fell in love with it!  And for under $20, it was an easy decision.  This ultra femme shirt has a burnout, velvet, floral pattern with a cold shoulder.  I love the sheer sleeves with the tie at the bottom.  Velvet has made a comeback and I am happy to find something in my budget to join the trend.

Occasion: Lilly’s in White Plains

 

 

While home in NY, I tried out this restaurant in downtown White Plains, with my good friend, Abbie, that was PHENOM.  It was tapas style…and actually filling!  The sweet potato fries were up there among the best, and they came with chilli oil, whipped ricotta, honey, and herbs!  So flavorful! The cauliflower had a delicious muhammara sauce, and the burrata with arugula pesto and black mission figs hit the spot!  Love Abby(ie) squared dates!
