Went to an "engagement party" this weekend. First off, I've never been to an engagement party before. Who knew? The party was on a cruise down in Boston on a big ol' boat called "The Odyssey". Now, I was going as a guest of a family member of the bride to be, and really didn't know what to expect. I did know it was a dressy affair, but not formal or anything over the top.
I also knew that Hanna the storm was messing with our weather. So - here's what I was thinking. I'll dress so that I won't be cold on a boat in a storm out on the water. I looked nice with a dark brown short sleeved turtleneck and light tan linen pants (I'm not a dress person). I also had this adorable short dark brown jacket...it was a pretty nice outfit if I do say so myself.
As I drove from rainy Maine down to Boston, it got warmer, and warmer and sunnier and sunnier.
By the time I got to the boat (a really nice one in Rose Harbor) I was sweating my ass off in my TURTLENECK! It was 85 degrees...and that includes out on the water too! Oh sure, I looked amazing, with my forhead collecting sweat like I had just run a marathon.
But the lucky couple looked gorgeous and the food was amazing! Speaking of food - I also wasn't sure what the food situation would be so I ate a huge breakfast. Sometimes my doofessness even amazes me.
