When you host a party in February in Northern California you never know what kind of weather you’ll get. Last year’s Wine, Women & Chocolate barely espcaped a winter rain storm, while this year it was sunny and unseasonably warm. A new knit dress in a spicy coral print was a perfect way to enjoy the springlike day.
I already have so many dresses, but I loved this one from Boutique 4, a Bike to Shop Day participating shop.
- The knee-length A-line skirt is my favorite silhouette for biking. Full for movement but stays in place.
- A deep surplice neckline compliments my curves frames a versatile white and gold multi-strand necklace.
- My woven bike basket carries so much it is starting to break from the strain. Time to buy a new one!
I was too busy at the party to take many photos, but here’s a panorama of the group that rode together from the Caltrain station through downtown San Jose to the party in historic Naglee Park. If you have photos from the party, please send them to me at . For higher resolution of the photo, Click here.
