Happy Birthday, Mode!

It was a dreary weekend in Oklahoma, but it didn't rain on Mode's parade.

I was so excited to attend their first birthday bash on Saturday with my girl Ashley from Sass & Satin! I had the cutest spring outfit picked out but the weather had other plans....umbrellas are not my favorite accessory, you guys...

Luckily, upon entering Mode, I was instantly transported to a warm summer day. Sandals and crop tops and cacti galore! Literally, cactuses everywhere you look. It is the most adorable (and affordable!) boutique in Midtown OKC and it always puts a smile on my face when I stop by! The staff is so friendly and helpful and the owner (also named Amanda) is the absolute sweetest. They are fashion forward with just the right mix of boho vibes and class...basically the straw to my berry.

For the party, they had a DJ, a photo booth, goodie bags and prizes, champagne and cactus cupcakes from ButterSweet Cupcakes. Pictures, champs and cacti....if that doesn't scream "Amanda's Favorite Things," I don't know what does. All that was missing was their shop dog! After sipping on champagne and taking a turn in the photo booth, Ash and I perused their summer collection.

Note: everything in the store is hanging on rose gold hangers and raw wood polls. Insert heart eye emoji here. 

I found oh so many things that I wanted; it was insanely hard to narrow it down! I settled on an embroidered off-the-shoulder bell sleeve crop top (so on trend right now), a casual t (super soft and perfect to wear with cut-offs) and a beach hat. I'll be shooting them on vacation soon - I can't wait to share them with you! Ash got the most adorable black maxi dress with an open twist back and some click heels. I miiiight have to borrow them both. So nice that we're the same size ;)

Below are a few adorable outfits I didn't buy. But let's be real here...I'll probably go back and snag the two-piece set. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it!
