Outfits of the Weekend: Celebrate Good Times (and the Coolest Cake Ever)

There was all kinds of celebrating going on this weekend: The American Craft Beer Fest was in town on Friday (I didn't actually go since I'm not a fan of beer, but I met up with all of my inebriated friends afterward), MIT had a 150th celebration party last night, and today is SO's birthday.

Even though it's been unusually cold in Boston this week, I went ahead and put on a summery dress that I've been dying to wear on Friday night:

Dress: Va-Va (from Hautelook)

Shoes: Tory Burch

Last night was, in a word, AWESOME. MIT hosted "Toast to Tech," a 150-year anniversary celebration which also coincided with graduation weekend. Complimentary cupcakes, champagne and fireworks show? Yes, please.

A not-so great shot of the Prudential Center--so much cooler in person!

Okay, now get ready for pictures of one of the most interesting and detailed recreation cakes I've ever seen. Seriously...

Neat, right? 

Unfortunately we didn't get a cupcake or a slice of cake because there were way too many people crowding around the tent as they were serving. You would have thought they were handing out fifty dollar bills or something judging by the crowd. The way I see it, though, I can eat a cupcake any old day. At least I walked away with pictures of it!

Oh, and here's what I wore (it was super-chilly last night):

Dress: Rachel Pally

Vest: Splendid
Tights: TJ Maxx

Shoes: Cole Haan

Necklace: Cartouche
