Another weekend in quarantine in the books for us, and like most people around this country our community pool is closed for the summer due to COVID-19.

Anniversary Dinner
This past weekend we celebrated our second wedding anniversary–time flies when you’re having fun! We had a romantic dinner at Morton’s The Steakhouse Reston–located in the heart of Reston Town Center. I completely forgot that I’d purchased this maxi tulle dress earlier this summer. Turned out to be the perfect dress for our dinner. I love this look because it’s the epitome of high/low casual style, which is totally me. SHOP THE LOOK
