to dress up or not to dress up?

so, it's friday again and we're off out downtown on saturday night. since we have moved to nova scotia the hubby and i have found that people tend not to dress up too much to go out over here. unless i'm going to the wrong places, it's almost like people nip into town in the afternoon and end up stopping out in what they are already wearing. the hubby has embraced this, thinking 'well if no-one dressed up then i'm not!' but i can't put myself in that frame of mind.

a night out has always been the only time i get to dress up and wear my really nice stuff. i have worked with people in the past who always look fabulous, and when they go out they don't look any different. i'm one of those people who turns up to work like they've just crawled out of bed (don't panic, i wouldn't turn up to meetings like that!) and then transform into a more stylish version of myself at the weekend (i sound like ru paul there!)

so, i've been thinking about what too wear on saturday night now, do i go for something more casual and blend in with everyone else or do i become the weird brit, over dressed but incredibly stylish???

i'm thinking of my pink, quite girly dress from asos (it's last seasons so i'll try and take a pic) with my wet look leggings and some fabulous bootandals (my word for a cross between a boot and a sandal!) - i don't actually have the bootandals but persuading the hubby to go shopping on saturday won't be a problem (might cost me a pair of new trainers for him though!)

i found the coolest blog whilst searching for images - based totally around wet look leggings, ace! - http://wetlookheaven.blogspot.com/
