Jimmy and I have an annual tradition around Christmastime. It consists of going to see the light display at a historical mill (click here for info) about 40 minutes from where we live, and then going to a little pizza place in a tiny college town close to the mill. We've been doing it for five Christmases now, and I love it every time.
It was dark by the time we headed out, so I didn't get a great photo, but here's what I wore:
Sorry for the mirror shot. And don't mind the gift wrap box and paper behind me. I decided to wrap presents in the bedroom this year.
Outfit Details:
Black Maxi dress (worn as a skirt) - Fashion Bug
Purple Print Wrap Top - Lane Bryant
Denim Jacket - Avenue
Black Boots - Avenue
Our awesome self-taken photo sitting in a booth at the pizza place.
The interior of the pizza place. It is so cute and folksy.
Here's a shot of the main building at the mill.
Do you have any Christmas traditions? I'd love to hear about them in the comments!

FYI, I added Disqus to the blog a few days ago, and I am still figuring out all the settings and tricks. I like that I am able to reply to each comment (and I will try to do so), but please bear with me while I work out the kinks.
I'm going there for the first time on Thursday! I'm excited. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're going to the mill tonight. I haven't been since I was a little girl. I can't wait to see my kids' faces light up. Was your attire warm enough? This helps because I had no idea how to dress.
ReplyDeleteIt actually wasn't too chilly when we went on the weekend. I did wear my winter coat and gloves and a scarf, but with only tights on under my dress I wasn't freezing to death. I was happy to get back in the warm car,though. One warning: Be prepared for the crowd. It gets super, super crowded the closer it gets to Christmas! Make sure that the kids know to stay close to Mom and Dad.
