Beaujolais Nouveau 2014 & Fancy Gowns

The church that I work for is gearing up for our third annual Beaujolais Nouveau release party, where we partner with The Currier Inn & the Weld Food Bank and do you know what that means?

I get to wear a fancy outfit!

Below, I've styled a few options for a fancy wine release. Both are vintage-inspired, but pulling from different decades. While I'll likely be wearing something re-styled from my closet, I always find it fun to pick a theme and build an outfit around it.

If you're wondering why a church would throw a party centered around the release of a wine, please check out this short article on the subject. If you live in the Northern Colorado area, please consider attending the free event on Thursday, November 20th from 7-9pm at The Currier Inn. It's one of my favorite social events of the year and officially marks the beginning of the holiday season around these parts. I sincerely hope to see you there!

You could have just as much fun picking out an outfit as I am!
