What We Wore // The Zoo May 29, 2014 | We spent Mother’s Day at the Zoo and had an absolute blast. Unfortunately, there’s not a zoo in Charlotte and the closest one is in Columbia (about an hour and a half away), so this was Landry’s first time. She is smitten with animals right now. She only wants to read animal books, point at animals anywhere she sees one and suddenly burst out into her favorite animal sounds…it’s hysterical. Needless to say, we knew she would love the zoo…and we were right on. She had the time of her life seeing all of the different creatures up close and it made my Mother’s Day that much more special. Also sharing what we wore and my favorite black maxi dresses aka my summer uniform. The carousel was the highlight of the day….she absolutely lit up with joy when it started moving up and down and then around. She immediately began to wave at anyone who would wave back and squeal with excitement at every time around. The Zoo had the most beautiful succulent wreaths…trying to scheme how I can recreate them, although I’m unsure of the watering situation. Be still my heart… Shop Me // Black Maxi Dress // Forever 21 (Similar. I have this one too and I LOVE it!)
