I wore this to a very fancy bachelorette party in nearby Staunton – a lovely little mountain town – for high tea and a production of Jane Austen’s Emma.

I think as an adult, it can be really hard to put yourself out there to make friends who don’t share much context with you. But the bride managed to bring together a group of really lovely people, people I bonded with – even cried with – and I miss them now that we’ve all gone back to our lives in separate states.

It’s a good reminder that a little risk, and even a little scheduled mingling, is worth the initial awkwardness.
