My Husband has just had a very special birthday, he probably will kill me for this but he has now reached 40!
For the adults to celebrate we organised a meal with friends at Mu Mu, followed by drinks in the bar and the following weekend had a family lunch with all the children invited too.
Then came the important bit- what to wear??
I traipsed around the shops with a good idea of what I was looking for but didn’t have much luck until I visited Phase Eight. The shop assistant was so helpful and even suggested dresses that I never would have tried on without her advise. In fact she was so helpful that I couldn’t decide between two dresses and so with a little coercing, convinced my husband that I needed both.
Now with two dresses in hand I had to find the perfect pair of shoes to match. This is not such a difficult task as I work at The Golden Boot and always have my eye on the next pair I want to buy. I love Peter Kaiser shoes so they were a natural choice and found two that matched the dresses beautifully.
For the evening in Mu Mu’s I decided on the peachy rose dress paired with Herdi. The sand patent colour highlighted the warm beige detail in the dress and I always think that nude shoes elongate and compliment your legs. I am not very tall but my husband is over 6 ft and so I always feel more comfortable in a high heel, in fact I wear heels most of the time.
I always find Peter Kaiser really comfortable and Herdi was no exception. I was on my feet a lot, and even had a dance but the slight platform is cushioned under your foot and I can honestly say I was comfy all night.
For the family get together I decided on Peter Kaiser Pallia in black to match my lacy dress from Phase Eight. The heel was just a little lower so I felt more confident running after the kids who were all extremely excited about the meal out. Luckily I already had a matching Peter Kaiser hand bag, which although formal has enough room so you can take everything you need, even candles for the cake!!
