Sparkles and Shoes Birthday Brunch

08/10/18 | blogging, Fashion Friday, Free People, Prada, S and S Birthday, Vince Camuto

Free People Just Like Honey Lace Dress and Prada Bag

On Saturday a handful of friends joined me in Little Venice for a delicious birthday brunch. I reserved a table on the outdoor patio at The Waterway and friends – both new and old – joined for a few hours of merriment. We started with a few bottles of bubbly and split the mezze platter (hummus, grilled halloumi, red pepper fetta, olives, and pita bread) as well as some delicious sashimi avocado tuna tartare.

Then for the mains everyone whether own way – some going the brunch route with the poached eggs with smoked salmon with hollandaise and others went the entree route with the Crispy Szechuan duck salad.  The bubbles then gave way to iced coffee, tea, and Aperol Sprtizs which are never a bad idea in my book. After that we had a few delicious desserts with candles including the chocolate brownie, honeycomb cheesecake, and the apple tart which were all delicious. Take a look at more of our day and what I wore to celebrate:

    I love the whole outfit on you. This dress needs to make your top 5 looks of the year. Also the blue high heel sandals are perfect for this outfit. The camera lady should have zoomed in on the shoes for one of the highlight pictures. I love the Prada bag too.

    I adore the color of the shoes. So fun

    The neckline and straps of the dress are so interesting. I think that the whole look is perfect.
