Total Basset Case: Fancy Pants

May 13, 2014

Fancy Pants

Remember a few weeks ago when I asked for everyone's votes on which dress I should rent from Rent the Runway? 
Well this past weekend was our big event and after much, much deliberation and waffling between choices, I made a decision. 
I allllmost did the purple or the red but in the end, I decided I wanted a short one.
I went with number 6!
Prom style photos in the front yard.

I was beyond pleased with my Rent the Runway experience and I will definitely be renting from them again!  The whole process was incredibly seamless and both sizes of dresses I ordered arrived in perfect condition.  Now I know what all the fuss is about. 

The event we had was a commitment ceremony for one of good friends at work.
It was SUCH a fun evening and we loved getting dressed up. 
The ceremony was so sweet, special and we loved being a part of their festivities.  
Our friends are originally from South Carolina so how cute are these individual cakes that everyone got?
It was a fancy pants, super fun evening.
And, of course, the food (and wine!) were yummy!

Can we go to black tie events every weekend?


*and a very special belated Happy Mother's Day to my mama and mother in law! 
Two of the very best ladies we could ask for in our life!
Thank you for all you do for us!!

I love the dress! I've always been so tempted to use Rent the Runway, but being 5'2", I'm kind of intimidated to rent any dress because I almost always would need to alter them!
