Last night, I got to dress up a little and head out to the Tristan fragrance launch. I thought this cute brocade dress with leather trim on the shoulders was the perfect number to throw on. Vintage-esque with a hint of edge, and the cut out detail is just perfect.
My hot ‘date’ for the night was a good friend of mine, Monica, and we shopped, browsed and basically just had a blast thanks to our lovely hosts and their delicious cupcakes. Personally, having been home most of the day struggling between finding time to edit photos on my computer and wrangling a toddler in the midst of a temper tantrum, I more than relished the chance to get out and not have to put a human being into a corner for time out….again.
Needless to say it was a welcome diversion, and the scent is lovely; light, crisp, and fresh. It’s a scent that makes me think of Spring. Which is rather bittersweet considering how far, far, away we are from Spring. Ugh, such a freakin’ tease.
