weekend + minneapolis

I'm back from my mini trip to the cities. I finally got see Leslie's new place, shop at BlackBlue, eat good food (duck confit salad at Barbette is out of this world), see my dad, have breakfast with Steve, watch dumpy television with Pam, and spend too much money. It was a much needed break before the Holiday madness, but I must say I am getting SUPER EXCITED for Christmas!

BlackBlue

Leslie told me about this new clothing boutique called BlackBlue that recently opened it's doors in St.Paul. I can't wait to check it out. It carries mostly menswear, but from the looks of their blog they definitely have some great women's clothing and shoes too. The shop itself has the best decor and look- simple and classically cool. It looks like they're having quite a lot of fun too. I love how they take pictures of their customer's and post them on their site. I'm also excited to have a place to bring Ben....I bet he's really excited too :)
