Outfit of the Day: Out to the Movies Again!

We must be on a roll now!


This past weekend Tim and I treated ourselves to another movie night date night. This time around we headed out to Alameda which is home to our favorite movie theater, The Alameda Theater and Cineplex, an old historic theater which dates back to 1932 and which was newly renovated and reopened in 2005 with all the modern sophistication of the big box theaters (plus a couple extra perks including movie posters which play live trailers), while still keeping the form, look, and details of the beautiful original.

We met up with a friend there, loaded up on popcorn, water (for me), and beer (for the guys), and enjoyed a night of The Avengers 2. I never say no to anything Joss Whedon makes! After the movie, Tim and I popped into the classic arcade museum across the street, High Scores Arcade, which is not only a museum but is also a fully functioning arcade. After that we finally made it out to dinner at the cute local 50's diner Ole's Waffle Shop. I was tempted to order the pecan waffles but instead feeling like I should be a little better and eat something more substantial I got the tuna melt... though in hindsight I don't know if you can really call it something better. ;) Though we didn't plan it this way, there was a definite theme going on that night. Alameda is so full of culture and historic touches. It's definitely one of our favorite towns in California. Hopefully next week we will be back if they are playing the new Poltergeist remake at the Alameda theater!


Outfit of the Day:

For this night's activities I was more concerned about staying warm than anything else. It is getting into late May but lately we've been having a bit of a cold spell. On top of that, it always gets colder here at night! I had to get out my warm winter coat to go out that night. I picked something out that would go with my red winter coat since I actually haven't gotten around to taking it in to the dry cleaners to retire it away for spring and summer yet. I opted to wear my Trashy Diva Sweetie Hearts dress which matched my coat well. I paired it with black sweater tights, black flats, and a red cardigan. I was warm for at least most of the night. ;)

  2. I'm in envy of that sweetie dress, I've been eyeing it for years!!

    I have a few red coats now, I like bright colours when it's a dreary day. I just bought a slightly red-orange one in the car boot sale, it's a beautiful cashmere coat, only £8, practically new!
