Of course, while I love the dress, I’m way more obsessed with the
Once the celebration rolled around I felt totally comfortable in my new boots and leopard print dress, and the typically awful winter/spring weather didn’t bother me in the slightest. All in all, it was a great night, and for the first time ever I felt confident that my outfit could withstand anything winter or spring could chuck at me.
P.S Congratulations Charlotte! You are Legally Blonde made real!
