dressing an officer's wife

Other weekend happenings? Well, there is that newsflash that my hubby left to do his final phase of training to become an officer. He’ll be gone 17 days. If you’ve been following our story, you know that I’ve come a long way since his 2009 grueling training schedule. Anyway, 17 days seems like a piece of cake compared to that crap. He gets back on a Sunday and I leave for another work trip the very next day for 9 days. The week I get home, he graduates and commissions to become an officer! Yay!


I’m leaning towards this dress for his pinning ceremony? Thoughts? What jewelry should I do? Earrings only? Layered chunky necklace??? Help!
