Red Dress Run




So Bryan and I decided to do this event on Saturday called the Red Dress Run. Basically you put on a red dress and run from one bar to the other in the quarter. It was lots of fun. We had lots to drink and met some cool people. They were offering beer at the bars but I'm not a beer drinker so I ended up having Gray Goose and tonic all day. We got there at 1:00pm and didn't get home til almost 7:00pm. It's absolutely hilarious to see grown men in red dresses. Some men didn't even bother to make sure their dresses fit they just left the zippers open. I ended up getting a shift dress from American Apparel. I was in there getting my dress and they didn't have a large only an extra large (yes, their stuff runs small). Well I was going to take the extra large and this random guy at the counter was buying the same version of it but a large but really wanted an extra large. We ended up swapping. He was obviously going to the Red Dress Run too. I ended up rocking a total 80s look with a wide leather belt and big hoop earrings. I looked cute. Bryan rocked his dress too. So here's some pictures of the event. It was sooo hot and humid. It is August in New Orleans
