Last week I got the opportunity to meet up with some awesome local bloggers at DownEast Basics for a fun night out. Each blogger got to bring a friend with them which was a lot of fun too.
I brought my friend Edna, and we carpooled over with Vanessa from The Sew-er, the Caker, the Copycat Maker and her friend Mary. We went to dinner first, had fun shopping at Down East Basics, and even made a stop at a Fabric and scrapbook store afterwords.
Here’s Vanessa and Mary browsing for clothes. I loved the little girls Rain or Shine Trench hanging right above Vanessa’s head. Too bad winter lasts about 5 days here in Arizona.
Here is Vanessa and I. I am so happy to have made a great ‘real life’ friend that I met through blogging.
I am not very good at shopping for myself. I am so indecisive when it comes to things for myself. I did see this really cute shirts that I just loved though. This is the Blooming Dahlia tee.
This shirt shirt is the Tandom top. I LOVED the pattern and the style.
Vanessa’s daughter came too and she was so fun to dress up. She looked really cute in the Fun Sun tank and the On Your Side top. I know Vanessa took lots of pictures so if she posts the outfits, I will link them up. Ah to be young and look cute in everything again!
I loved getting to see some familiar and new blogging faces too. I should have been a little more forceful with the camera. However I did get to see Jax(Jacquilyn Avery Photography) Kristyn(Lil Luna), Whitney(Home Delicious) plus I got to meet Wendy(Choosing Love). Next time I hope to be even more outgoing and introduce myself to more people.
Thanks DownEast Basics for a fun shopping night out!

I was thinking the same thing about that cute trench coat! “She would only wear it once!” It was great to see you!

Looks like a lot of fun! I like to go shopping with friends too – not only is it more fun, but I’m like you – I get indecisive and they help!

I went to a DownEast Basics Blogger Mixer last night. I found a cute top and a belt that I might just wear to Blogher next week.
