it's my birthday!

Yep, today is my birthday, and to celebrate the occasion, I wore my J Crew bow top.
Had an amazing seafood dinner (succulent jumbo prawns on a bed of garlic butter noodles) at one of my all time favorite restaurants, Crustaceans/Thanh Long.
Then did it elementary style with a pizza/ice cream/cake party...(my dad thought it was his special day and got to the pizza before me, and my camera!)
And topped it off with some yummy sangria made by yours truly.
You can't go wrong with family, friends and food :)

wearing: j crew top, urban pants, matiko wedges, f21 wallet, michael kors watch
worn to: my pizza party (at home) & nordstrom rack to pick up my bday gift to myself

NEW YORK PICTURES & TRIP DETAILS UP NEXT!

    thanks for the kind words, i bought the F21 top about 4 months ago and their shoes are fab (thank the Lord they they have a site)! They're a little hard, but you get what you pay for. but it's nothing insoles can't fix.

    Happy Belated to a classy sista.

    That seafood dinner isn't fair. While looking at the pic, I could almost taste the meal.

    Too funny @ your dad's actions.
