This past Saturday...

Saturday I had to work on my summer job stuff. It was fun and very nice seen some of my co-workers and students from last summer! At the end of the day I was going to meet my friend Maria for dinner and beers at my favorite English pub.

Maria and I started our friendship about 2007; we were friends with someone else that introduced us and we became very close and hung out a lot. Back then I had 2 jobs, I had just started to work on my Masters and had a lot more expendable money to go out and have adventures.

For way too many reasons; Maria and I have not seen each other since 2009. We have kept in touch through emails, phone calls, text messages and the great Facebook!





We said our hellos and went straight to the bar area and order our beer and ice tea!
The beers in the back are bar decorations not our future comsuptions!


 


A closer look! This is made out of plastic and it looks very realistic and drinkable!

 

I love the beer dispensers!



I wore this outfit back in February with red accessories.
I wore a black and white flowery cardigan that is in the back of my chair.
When Maria saw me she said, "you still dress weird".
My shirt is from Target, my skirt is from Steinmart and all 
my white necklaces and bracelets are also from Steinmart (4 years old).

 


Dinner! This salad was made with very spicy chicken. This 
is an English pub with a great Jamaican cook!

 


Neither one of us like this picture but we agreed that
is better than the ones we took!



My favorite sign! It was directly on top of our bar chairs!

 


Here we are listening to the band and trying to sing along!!
It was a lot of silly fun mix up a lot of serious talking and cathing up!!

Ofelia--you look gorgeous. I love all the white jewelry against your skin. I don't think it looks weird at all.

I'm not much of a beer drinker, but DH would definitely approve of the beer lamp!

What fun! I think it's been too long since this girl had a night out. You do not dress weird(ly) at all. Very unique, very edgy. I don't drink beer but I got thirsty just looking at your photos. Now I will snap a pic everywhere I go. Love your blog. You seem like an extraordinary woman. My impression. Cheers.

Ola Ofelia, since I do most of my blogging when I should already be dreaming one of my bizarre dreams, I don't aways get it all in from a bog visit. I just discovered you live in Southern Florida. Me too. I also saw you are interested in tattoos. Me too. I have 6 and have planned some more. All my tattoos are from NYC. I am in need of a good tattoo place somewhere nearby. Hope to find a good artist nearby.
bye for now.

What's weird about a skirt and top??? How rude! I think you look lovely!

I'm struggling to think why your mate thinks you're dressed weird! You look great as always. (Iggy and the Stooges are playing a festival in the UK this summer - I'm more than tempted - Lou Reed and Patti Smith as well - sooooo excited!).

Judy C said...

Ofelia, you dress just fine. I would wear everything I have seen on you. Including your smile.

Ofelia said...

Terri, thanks! I love my Guinness! Is one of the few beers I drink because it remains me of malta; which we use to drink with condense milk when we lived with our grandma!!!!

Ofelia said...

Paula, I get together with my girlfriends at least 2 a month, if I can!!!!
Yes, I do live in South Florida! I'm getting a couple of tats in a couple of weeks and I will let you know how good or bad is the shop and the artist!!!
We should meet sometime for some music and dinner!!!!!

Ofelia said...

Sarah, you so lovely! I think Maria meant that the flowery jacket and the print in the skirt did not match (from her point of view)!! I just laughed about it because this is the way I dress and that's it!!

Ofelia said...

Loo, she is a classic (and simple dresser)!
I'm so jealous of you for getting to go see such amazing and influential rockers!!!!!

Ofelia said...

Judy, thanks so much!!

Ofelia, my sweet sweet friend, I am so happy that you got to reunite with a friend! Looks like such a lovely night. Oh, and if your dress sense is "weird" I am here to tell you it is my fave kind of weird-chic. I <3 you!
