casual night out!

<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 600px;"><div style="position: relative;">I'm heading out tonight with a friend after a long week of work, we're going someplace casual and seaside. Here's a typical look I might put on. It gets cool in Boston at night, so the little denim jacket is a must. I also love to layer necklaces. The key is to just keep the lengths different! Happy Weekend!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/casual_night_out/set?.embedder=3232506&.svc=blogger&id=49153249"><img alt="casual night out!" border="0" force="1" height="510" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/GrTzNPZZpaNF7IwH8r4GjA/cid/49153249/id/jOan_oE0SC_jV8SrYoy5rg/size/c600x510.jpg" title="casual night out!" width="600" /></a></div></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><small><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/casual_night_out/set?.embedder=3232506&.svc=blogger&id=49153249">casual night out!</a> by <a href="http://julieatshelter.polyvore.com/?.embedder=3232506&.svc=blogger">julieatshelter</a> featuring <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/one_shoulder_tops/shop?query=one+shoulder+tops">one shoulder tops</a></small></div><div style="margin: 0 auto;
