Okay, good... Now that's over and we can move on.
This past Saturday was my lovely sister-in-law's birthday and we planned a last minute rescheduling trip to Tunica, MS! It's just about an hour away from us, and a Southern Vegas style atmosphere.
If you're ever in the area, you should visit... Lots of fun.
Women in my family, whether by blood or by law, love to dress up! And we took the occasion very seriously and put on some duds to rock the casino floors.
(Plus, you enter in free drinks & video poker and I could never leave.)
at the casinos, with the bday girl
To honor her birthday, I wore the hairpiece we wore in her wedding to my brother.
{dress: ROSS | shoes: NINE WEST | ring: TARGET | peacock clip: ETSY, gift}
The pictures are not that great, but I was bound and determined to get pics in before it got dark, hence too much flash and poor quality. I got so many compliments on this dress at the various casinos we visited... it cost me something like $14.99 at Ross! I love the "cupcake" fold top part, I call it that anyway, I am sure there is a proper name.
I hope my readers liked this post, I found out over the weekend that I have a whole slew of readers (aka my extended family in AL...if you're reading now HEY Y'ALL!)
I did not know about, and that makes me happy :)
If you need an outfit fix, may I suggest you check out the Daily Dani, like daily?
She is doing the 30 for 30 challenge and not only is she my BBFF (blogger best friend), she has the best outfits on the west coast. Go! Now!

I've never been to a casino before but it looks likes you had a lot of fun. I can't believe you found this dress at Ross for $15! That is a crazy good deal. I love the top of the dress as well!
