Vintage Gloves

As the weather cools, I’m really into gloves, particularly wrist length, vintage or otherwise. They are easily findable on ebay and a fashionable way to overcome the chills.

All these adorable faux-fur toppers are under $50 from ASOS. Any favorites? I think I’m partial to the first one, although the fourth one is slightly amazing in a hilarious way.

Confections Abound

Today I’m missing New Orleans. It’s such a fabulous place to spend Halloween. Last year this time, my beau whisked me off to the Crescent City to spend time eating and drinking and playing. Thankfully he loved the city almost as much as I do.

Since there’s candy all around, I’m daydreaming of sweet treats from New Orleans Confectioner Sucre. They deliver!

I recently discovered the cutest little wedding photographed by Feather Love

The couple (Kestrin and Jonathan) look like so much fun, plus the bride is gorgeous and is in a band with the brother from Big Love called His Orchestra – they are great! Anyway, the groom’s sister is Flora Grubb and she shared their vows on her website. SO. Freaking. Adorable.

“Jonathan: I vow to love you
Kestrin: I vow to love you
J: to respect you
K: to always make fun
J: to be your best friend ever
K: to constantly generate a force field of awesome to guide and protect us

Also, please read the NYT write-up of their union. “Ms. Pantera, the former Jedi warrior, pledged in her wedding vows “to constantly generate a force field of awesome.” When asked about her hopes for the couple, the bride’s mother, Jan Pantera of Visalia, Calif., said, “I wish for them a good credit score,” revealing the origin of the bride’s practicality.”

The Weekend Style & Memories

I love the weekend because I can dress however I want. I can stay in oversize pj pants, driving moccasins and hoodies or I can dash about in a cocktail dress (whether the occasion calls or not). This weekend, I plan to do a bit of both. Tonight: cocktail attire for a charity party; Tomorrow: pjs & mocs; Tomorrow Evening: I may have to bust out my leather leggings in honor of Bikes, Blues and Barbecue. They helped me snag my sweetheart two years ago this weekend, after all…

You never know what the weekend holds!

The Weekend!

Kick up your heels! It’s Friday! I’m having my first little shindig at the new place tonight.

I’m planning to wear my new favorite dress from Maude (below).

I have lots of besties in town and we’re planning to make the most out of our time together. There will be eating, drinking and merry-making. We’ve also got a BIG football game that the whole town is excited about. I’m a happy girl!

Pretty la-belle-vie:  thedecorista:  fun fun fun!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend :)
