What Wendy Wore: A Quick Trip to Chicago

June 12, 2013 by WendyB

I was in the Chicago suburbs for 36 hours or so to attend my stepson’s classical-guitar recital. It was in a chapel, so I wore this Jason Wu dress. My sister, Terri Berry, who also attended, described the dress as very “appropriate.”

I enjoyed encountering some matching flowers.

But no flower compares in beauty to my niece, Sabrina Berry.

It was good to see her and my nephew, Sebastian Berry, before and after the concert.

      Thank you! I actually got the dress to match a particular jacket and then I forgot to pack the jacket. Oh well!

    Awww! How sweet! Your Berry relatives are all sweet.

    Also your dress is really cute, and very appropriate for the event.

      Something about “appropriate” cracks me up but it can be a necessary evil!
