Maxi dresses, PJ's and crab legs...oh my!

Ok...so I've gotten several e-mails asking why I don't post pictures of myself on my blog. Well, I didn't in the past because of my career (if you've read for a length of time you know what I do). But....I thought I'd show you my birthday outfit I wore to dinner tonight! Now....this picture may not be up for long, but maybe now, you'll be able to put a face with The Pink Owl! Please pardon the hair (I'm growing it out) and the serious, ridiculous lack of a tan (you may need sunglasses, just sayin').

The dress I'm wearing is a gray maxi dress from Target. Not sure how I feel about the whole maxi dress look on me, but I love it on others! However, the dress was soooo comfortable! I put a little black cardigan over it, but I forgot to put it on in the bathroom self-portrait.

Speaking of Target, tonight I got the most amazing, comfortable PJ's I've ever had on! They are Gilligan and O'Malley (the makers of the Magic Pants that now have a loyal following in blog land--including myself who now owns about 8 pair of them). The PJ tank was on sale for $4.50 and the pants were on sale for $6.50!! I got the coral color. I have them on now, and they feel like heaven!! I plan to go back and buy two more pair tomorrow, as they will be perfect for my beach vacation this summer with my family.



Birthday dinner tonight was delicious and Joe's Crab Shack is a pretty fun place. My 3 year old nephew loved crab legs!?! After dinner, I took myself shopping and may or may not have purchased a new handbag...to me, from me!

Adorable! So what kind of shoes did you wear with the maxi dress? I've a big dress fan, but haven't tried a maxi dress yet mostly because I can't decide in advance if I'll like the look on me at my height (I'm only 5'5") & don't know what shoes to wear.

Happy (late) birthday! I love the dress on you...it makes me feel daring enough to go get one myself. I'm all for comfy clothes! I LOVE those GOM pants from Target too, I have several pairs as well. I even went as far as wearing them to work when I was a teacher...what? They KIND of pass for real pants :-)
