December is always a special month for me not only because of the holiday season, but because of my birthday! For my birthday, my husband took me to one of the restaurants I’ve been meaning to go to for a while called Vernick.  It’s located in Center City Philadelphia (the downtown area for those of you who aren’t familiar). The food was AMAZING and I can’t wait to go back! You can check out my YELP review here.  My husband also took me to King of Prussia mall and spoiled me with wonderful gifts – he’s honestly the best! On Saturday we celebrated my birthday with our friends which was so much fun! It was definitely a memorable and special birthday!

For my birthday celebrations Saturday night, I paired this gold tweed skirt with a simple long sleeve shirt and added a glamorous asymmetrical teardrop necklace.  What drew me to the skirt was that it’s made from a thick tweed material with an inverted-pleat and also has pockets! (Seriously, who doesn't love pockets?!) The material of the dress is absolutely perfect for cold weather.  I really wanted the skirt and necklace to stand out so I paired the look with a plain black long-sleeve shirt. I added my Saint Laurent bag which was the perfect touch.
