Happy Fashion Friday!
I am finally starting to feel so much better. I still have a small lingering cough, but it's finally almost gone. This week has been all about catching up from traveling and getting ahead for my next trip.
This weekend I'm hosting a party with all ALDI ingredients! I've got all sorts of yummy recipes planned and I'll be sharing the shopping, prep-process, highlights on Instagram Stories Saturday. It should be a good time.
Couple of blog notes...
Make sure to check out my post sharing the highlights of my New York Trip and the best eats on the trips first!
There are still two giveaways happening on the site. First an EPIC $350 Value NOW Foods giveaway and a pretty awesome QALO Ring Prize Pack. QALO rings are super fun silicone wedding rings that are great for travel and an active lifestyle. It's free to enter and there are no strings attached, so make sure you put in your name. Directons to enter are on both of those posts.

Fashion Friday
In keeping with my theme of all things NYC on the blog this week, I took Fashion Friday on the road to the craziness of the city. I wore this outfit to see the Broadway show, The Great Comet. I know not everyone gets all dressed up to go to a show, but I can never pass on an opportunity to pull out something nice.
This is a dress I've had in my closet for a season or two, but it has been super useful for events like this. It's Betsy Johnson and I found it our our Dillard's Clearance Center for a steal! I think it was less than $30.
For accessories I went with large gold chandelier earings and a bangle bracelet.
The shoes are one of my most favorite recent purchases. They are Sam Edelman heels. I love the way they tie and believe it or not they are actually pretty comfortable for what they are. I had no trouble walking in between our hotel, the restaurant and show in them.
I have had amazing luck with Sam Edelman shoes lately. They are a little pricier, but SO much more comfortable and wearable than a lot of brands.
I think a classic dress like this is one everyone needs in their closet! You can wear it for years and keep it current with the shoes and accessories. Happy shopping and have an amazing weekend!
Shop the Look:

So nice to see you today. Have a great weekend and come back Monday. I'll be sharing more about ALDI including three different ways to make their fabulous quinoa with ingredients found in their store.

You look gorgeous! I triple love your outfit and the accessories. I LOVE Betsy Johnson, but find the price is usually out of my budget. Nice job finding it clearance! I need to try clearance shopping more, this is totally motivating.
And those shoes! Why not splurge when the dress was such a steal? Love the bracelet too.

The perfect little black dress look!
Linda says
From an old New York girl now living in SC I can tell you that you look like you fit in perfectly. Your dress and shoes are so pretty. Glad you had such a wonderful time in the city and took in all the great attractions.
JulieWunder says
Thank you Linda! That means so much... I always feel like a fish out of water in a big city!
Emily says
It's beautiful. That's incredible that you got it for such a good deal; it's also so beautiful and perfect for a show on Broadway.
JulieWunder says
Thanks you so much Emily!
Farrah says
I love that dress! So pretty (and hooray for clearance finds)! <3! I have yet to see a show on Broadway, but it's definitely on my bucket list!
Blane Sherer says
Love the outfit Julie ( smile ).
Glad you are feeling better.
Hope you enjoy your weekend !
Kimberly Hatting says
Very cute! It seems like little black dresses never really go out of style...even "vintage" ones have a way of looking current with the right (modern) accessories. And those shoes! Love them!
Annmarie says
What an absolutely gorgeous dress, you look stunning!
Lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
Such a cute dress. Looks very comfy! But those shoes do not. I'm sure you weren't walking around in those for very long.
JulieWunder says
So I swear the shoes are comfortable for what they are!!! I walked maybe a mile in them throughout the whole evening. Sam Edelman shoes are da bomb.
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
I love your outfit, you look great! I'm glad you're feeling better! I haven't seen a show in NYC yet...which is crazy because I'm not that far!
JulieWunder says
That is crazy! It was so much fun.
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
Love love love! Going to read all about your trip now!
