Spikes and Studs and Sushi OH MY!


What I wore for a Date Night Done Right...



Cozy details did me right for my Saturday date sushi night! 



Last night we decided to go for a bit of sushi...again!  I could eat sushi everyday no problem!  Since it was our 'date night' I decided to try out the DIY studded plaid shirt and cardi that I  had crafted earlier in the week.  I bought the shirt and the cardi both a size too big as I plan on washing them (obviously) and since they were both VERY inexpensive I KNOW they will shrink.  I paired them with the black zippered leggings from forever 21, my new old school Casio digital, my 'eye've got my eye on you ring, and my trusty ol' platform shooties.  I actually bought them for My manfriends photo exhibition that he had in March 2012.  At the time I thought that they would not get much use..but I'm finding that I can pair them with a lot of different bits and they'll make any boring ol' everyday, run of the mill outfit 'come to life'

So here is what I wore to eat some fabulous sushi on Saturday night date night with my love:





These leggings proved to not only be comfy but WARM as well!  I went without a coat last night or a ...wait for it...without a SCARF!
I know, can you believe it? It was pretty chilly out side but I was all warm and snuggly in the oversized cardi, shirt and leggings.  I know these $12 finds are going to make it into many 'what I wore' photos and will get plenty of wear at work this winter as well.  













The zipper detail on these leggings is what sold me.  Not to mention the great pattern in the material as opposed to some plain cotton ones for the same price!  Love Love LOVING my new Casio watch..!





Do you have any 'go to' clothing items for date night?  

Leave me a comment below I look at, appreciate and reply to every.single.one of them!  Thank you for visiting my blog!

  4. Awwe..Gay! and not like "GAY" but like "awwwe..Gay!" ;) you pickin' up what I'm throwin' down?

    Anyway, thank you so much..I've been putting ALOT of effort and time into this and honestly I can't even believe how dedicated I've been to it..Now that I think about it, it's probably one of the few things that I've 'stuck with' and have MORE fun as I go along...I love having my own 'space' on the interweb and am really happy that others are enjoying it..I did not go into it thinking anyone would be interested in 'what I'm wearing or places I go'. So it's very exciting and I'm having so much fun with it! Glad you are enjoying it and thank you for the kind and encouraging words! XOOX - and....I WANT MY PINK SHIRT BACK!

    1. Thank you Elizabeth! It took me back when I was putting the studs on...I'd done this in middle school way way back! I like that it was so much cheaper than buying one with studs! I got the shoes in March of this year..from Zappos.com I'll have to check the brand..but I think they were around $65-$80 and they are SOO comfy!
