Macarons... to Wear?

Happy Christmas a day late! I hope you had a great one and that all your wishes came true. Tad and I both had to work Christmas day but we did get to spend all of Christmas Eve together and it ended up being a beautiful, wonderful day. We woke up and went for a morning run with our dogs, gave each other our gifts, and went to lunch at one of our favorite places, Gyu-Kaku. We then spent the evening celebrating with family and friends. It was a perfect Christmas eve!

This was my Christmas Eve outfit- not very "holyday-ish" but I just couldn't resist wearing it! You see, I stayed up late into the night finishing this dress so that I could wear something special to celebrate the day in (please pardon the wrinkles...we had a very long lunch sitting down).

Outfit Details:

Dress- made by me!

Not only do I love eating macarons, I apparently love to wear them as well! This dress is called the Macaron Dress and it took me about 12 hours total to make but I just adore it. The color reminds me more of spring than winter but I just couldn't help putting it on! Beside, it pretty much felt like spring, with the weather being a beautiful, sunny 73 degrees! Who needs a White Christmas anyways?
