Somehow I always struggle with what to wear for a night out with the main man. No surprise that he really could not care less what I wear but I still always want to look good. With the recent move to Brooklyn I find this whole concept a little more difficult. Unless you've been living under a rock you know that Brooklyn is experiencing a sort of life revolution that hasn't been seen in who knows how long. This is great for my home-ownership status but complicates my Saturday night wardrobe decisions. Although the idea of "cool" in Brooklyn is definitely something happening I am definitely not a hipster and therefore feel like I pretty much always look like I don't quite fit in. Thus the difficulty with dressing for a local Saturday night out.
When I was living in the city I always dressed up. Even if we were just going for pizza around the corner I always always dressed up. There is this idea that you just might never know when you're going to end up at some random bar downtown at 1 a.m. with a whole group of people, therefore you must always be prepared. Moving to Brooklyn has definitely changed this. When we decide to keep it easy and go local for a night out I find myself really struggling with what my previous self would do and what actually looks normal and not over the top. I finally decided that skinny legging jeans, a blousy white t-shirt, wedge sandals, statement necklace and bright pink clutch was the right kind of casual Saturday Date Night look.
