Date Night In (+ The Rocky Barnes Collection at Express)

For the first time in the history of Ever, Andy and I had a date night in, and it was amazing!  We very rarely do anything just the two of us but after our anniversary trip we decided we definitely need to make the time.  We make a million excuses when we even think of doing something without Sophie – we’re too tired, we don’t have a sitter, we can’t decide what to do… yada yada, and that has lead to years when we literally DON’T have a single. date. night.  Yeah, it’s bad.

I know it doesn’t sound like much but just taking a bottle of wine out to the boat with some good music (and a fishing pole haha) was so nice!  And no, we didn’t even leave the dock haha, but it worked.  Andy isn’t big on fancy dinners out and I’ve become more of a homebody myself over the years so this was exactly what we needed – and I could still be in bed on time lol.

Since we were considering this an actual Date Night I was excited to wear a cute outfit, just as I would if we were going somewhere.  It was so fun and I think Andy appreciated it too!  I mean, who doesn’t love a black bodysuit and leopard print shorts?!?  And these have to be the most comfortable ever!  I have a love/hate relationship with bodysuits – I love that they stay in, no fussing with tucking in your shirt over and over but they can also ride up in the back if you know what I mean… This one however does not!  Bless it!  That coupled with the high waist (stretchy) shorts, was the perfect comfy combo!  The shorts also have pockets and both items are true to size, I got the XS in each piece.

Both of these items are part of the Rocky Barnes collection from Express.  I was able to get a first look at the line when I was out in Dallas and could not wait to get my hands on it!  All of the items in the line are so fun and I love how you can mix and match so many of them to create a bunch of different cute looks!  This weekend all of the items are included in the BOGO $19.90 SALE so make sure you check it out!  I’ve linked all of my favorites below including the leopard slides I’ve been wearing.
