Opa Blue






Had I known that the dinning experience at Opa Restaurant was so superb I would have done an actual feature on the new Greek Restaurant (photos and all) but I didn't go with that intent so I'll just share a quick synopsis of my night. 
 The atmosphere at Opa is very intimate and homely , the decor ; simplistic yet artistic and the staff was beyond kind and attentive. I was so skeptical about the menu offering because I've never tried Greek cuisine before but the food was so good I ate my okra and tomato vegetarian mix and had half of my date's Greek pizza too. 
As we were about to leave all the staff members came out singing and wishing me a Happy Birthday (with a slice of desert in hand) even though my Birthday was over a month ago ,  needless to say ,  I was pleasantly surprised and  particularly impressed with how warm and welcoming the Opa family was.
 It's fair to say I found a hidden gem in the heart of Kingston that deserves nothing less that a 5 star rating for the overall fine dinning experience offered.


For the night out I wore a sequin mini , attempted to be modest with a furry wrap draped over my shoulders and accessorized with random silver jewelry. I think a white furry piece loosely thrown over the shoulders with a simple dress is such a youthful yet classy look.

Wild

I know its not throwback Thursday but I am throwing it back on this here Monday with this wild animal print dress I wore sometime in 2014 on a date.


Did my usual re-working on this vintage piece and shortened and penciled the once flared dress , did a triangular cut out in the back , added shoulder pads for structure and black lining around the neck and along the bodice for a little definition.

I'm not a make-up guru but I tried my hand at a sexy black and grey smokey eye and dark red lips. I'm planning to experiment more with my make-up this year and when I do get it right share short tutorials.






This picture does the scenery absolutely no justice but the view of the city lights across from Morgan's Harbour is breathtakingly beautiful at night. Anyway little darlings , hope you are all having a safe and peaceful Easter Holiday.
