On Sunday, Mitch and I met John, my brother-in-law, at Birreria, Eataly’s rooftop bar and restaurant across the street from Madison Square Park. I can’t believe I’m in sleeveless dresses in October, but hey–not complaining! Lovin’ this indian summer we’re experiencing in New York. (And I love any excuse to wear my favorite Julie Brown dress!)
Anyway, John (and his adorable fam–you can see their cuteness in the wedding video) live outside Milwaukee, so we were super excited to hang out with him. We had a great afternoon catching up, laughing, and reminiscing about the summer. (There was a lot of reminiscing goin’ on this past weekend. ;) We’re a sentimental bunch.) Later that night, we had dinner at Blue Smoke, and met up with Gregg, my BFF from college. Gregg just moved back from London, where he’d been working for a few years. So fun to have two of my favorite people in NYC at the same time!

Hello dear! I love this blog! Your dress is very beautiful and your shoes is very very nice!!! Do you like to visit my blog? Au jour le jour shirt with Kenzo tiger hat
Nice dress but it’s the kitten heel shoes that caught my eyes! Your husband and brother-in-law look like twinsss! haha
Linh! Thank you! OMG. I got them for $40 on sale, and they’re the most comfy heels I own. Granted, they’re tiny heels, but I walked 30 blocks in them over the weekend without pain! That’s a lot for a girl with major foot probs ;) Thanks, girl! :)
Looks like a fun-filled weekend! Your dress is absolutely perfect – love the color and the bow print! I also love your bracelets and watch! What a great stack of arm candy :]
Thank you, Deborah! It was such a nice weekend. And thanks for the kind words! :) You have to check out Julie Brown Designs… She’s incredible! :)
