I am so excited to share these photos! An event that I have been looking forward to since I heard about it was the Tall Ships coming to the Buffalo waterfront for Port of Call Buffalo. It is the first time they have been here to Buffalo so I had big expectations and I was not disappointed! I spent the day with my husband, mom, dad and brother and despite the heat and long waits we had a fantastic time. I had heard some complaints that the event was poorly organized, but I definitely disagree! I thought it was well organized and worth the wait. There were three "zones" or areas with the Tall Ships, and your ticket to get into the area got you a passport with information on all of the ships that you could get stamped on each boat. There were a lot of people because they day before was a washout with some much needed rain, and Sunday was the last day, so I was expecting a crowd. Thousands of people came, and for good reason, I really enjoyed going on and seeing the boats. I do however a pretty nasty sunburn from the spots I missed with sunscreen. Due to the long waits, we chose to go on the boats at the Canalside area, with the War of 1812 replica ships, and then we took a drink break and walked along the waterfront to see the others but we did not go on them. I had so much fun and took so many photos. If you made it to the event, or have been to see the Tall Ships let me know what you thought! I now really want to go sailing!
outfit details:
My dress is Vineyard Vines for Target. Back when this line launched, I looked ahead online and this was the dress I knew I would want, but I did not go to the store early or log online early enough to snag one, so I figured it just wasn't meant to be. Well, my mom and I stopped in their local Target on Friday and there was a rack with a few items somehow still left over, and this was one of them, in my size! I'm obsessed with it, it fits like a glove and is actually really good quality in my honest opinion. The timing was prefect for the Tall Ships, with its nautical striped ribbon. I paired it was my basket weave slides and basket bag from Target. It was the perfect summer day!
