Etsy Finds: Wedding Dresses

If I were to plan my wed­ding all over again, the one thing I would most def­i­nitely change is my dress. While I liked my dress, I wasn’t overly con­cerned with the whole thing dur­ing the shop­ping process. I was never one of those peo­ple who expected a mag­i­cal “this is the one” moment. I really just wanted some­thing that I felt comfortable […]

Inspired by: The Pre-Fall Collections

I’m super inspired by some of the gor­geous dresses shown at the 2011 Pre-Fall Collections. Check out a few favorites below. Monique Lhuillier Oscar de la Renta Reem Acra

Our Wedding: Attire, Hair and Makeup

We were so so happy with our hair and make-up the day of the wed­ding. Everyone looked gor­geous… Our hair was done by Stacy Pitt of Styles on B. She and her assis­tant did an amaz­ing job get­ting us all done up so early. (I think the first time slot for hair was around 6am  —  I […]

Fashion Week Inspiration: Blues

From what I’ve seen, there hasn’t been a whole lot of blue on the run­ways this sea­son. But it is still the color fam­ily I grav­i­tate most towards, so here’s a few that did hap­pen to catch my eye. 1. Carmen Marc Valvo, 2. Rachel Roy, 3. Monique Lhuillier, 4. Derek Lam, 5. Ports 1961, 6. Jason Wu   […]

Fashion Week Inspiration: Metallics

I’m not a much of a neu­tral girl. Yes, they’re nec­es­sary to break up color, but I don’t nor­mally grav­i­tate towards them in large amounts. However, I do love me a good metal­lic, and there have been lots on the run­ways so far. 1. Badgley Mischka, 2. Luca Luca, 3. Elie Tahari, 4. Jenny Packham, 5. Lela Rose, 6. Monique Lhuillier

Fashion Week Inspiration: Patterns

I’m not a fash­ion­ista by any stretch of the imag­i­na­tion, but as a visual per­son I’m always inter­ested in see­ing what comes down the run­ways dur­ing New York Fashion Week. It’s a great place to draw inspi­ra­tion from. So I thought I’d gather a few of my favorite looks together. It was tough to nar­row them down to one post […]

Peppermint Milk

Well, hello there. I have been out of com­mis­sion with the flu the last few days, which is why this blog has been absent of posts. But I do have some fun things to share, like this shop out of Perth, Australia: Peppermint Milk. Not only do I love the whim­si­cal fash­ions and acces­sories, but I LOVE the super […]

Emmy Fashion Inspiration

I very rarely watch the Emmys — which is sur­pris­ing because I watch far too much TV  —  but when I do I’m not usu­ally thrilled by the men’s fash­ions. As some­one who rarely wears black and white, the tux  —  although it looks great on pretty much every­one  —  was just never my thing. This year though, I was impressed by the lit­tle bits of […]

A Modish Wedding

Have you seen Jena’s (of Modish fame) wed­ding dress? While it doesn’t exactly fit my per­sonal style, it truly is a work of art  —  the details are amaz­ing. You can read more details about the Elizabeth Dye cre­ation right here. Can’t wait to see how the rest of her wed­ding details come together!

Bridesmaids Dresses: Check

I real­ized that I haven’t been shar­ing as much of the my own per­sonal deci­sions with you lately, and as we head into the six month stretch, there are quite a lot of them. I went back and forth between dif­fer­ent dresses and dif­fer­ent col­ors ver­sus the same dress for all, since there’s only three of them. And […]
