Reston Visit

If you are ever in Reston, do yourself a favor and go to Lake Anne for some pleasant shopping and dining. I know the bright lights of the Reston Town Center will lure you toward midtown, but this quaint little shopping center with excellent restaurants, cute shops, and scenic view of the lake makes for a way nicer afternoon or evening.



The vintage/consignment shop at Lake Anne Plaza is Vogue to Vintage.
11414 Washington Plaza West
Reston Va. 20190













The sister got this colorful scarf. I love colorful scarves...you can wear them all year and they can act as the statement piece of the entire outfit. Just pair it with basics and you've got a stand out ensemble.



I got a few pair of earrings and was deeply pondering this purse...

Cute, right? It was only $7. And 2 pairs of earrings only cost $9. So the haul was a purse, and 2 pair retro earrings for $16. I think that's a pretty good bargain!

Granted she did have some more expensive stuff, but all in all a great little place to check out.

And if you're at Lake Anne, you've gotta stop into one of my favorite restaurants (and old place of employment), Jasmine Cafe. The food is AMAZING. Trust me, just go eat there and you can thank me later.

There is also a great little Used Book Shop with a very friendly staff and pretty good selection.

So check out Lake Anne Plaza in Reston, VA! Reston Town Center has great shops too, but Lake Anne has more of a rootsy, European feel.
