From the Weekend

July 19, 2011October 30, 20121 Comment

It was quite an eventful weekend. We got a cake sample for our wedding cake and it tasted as good as it looks. .

A new and exciting sponsorship opportunity from BeBop Clothing. I got some goodies in on Friday and couldn’t wait to try them on – more to come!

Karaoke with Ro, my brother Hampton & his brother William. I couldn’t stop myself from singing “Alone” by Heart but regretted it later…

Ro’s mom came up bearing gifts! Including the below four poster bed frame for our room & a dining table. I’m obsessed.

Some sweet friends threw a stock the bar party for us and it was incredibly lovely. Here’s a picture with my mom. (dress – vintage from the grey dog)

Spoils from the stock the bar. Planning this wedding has certainly shown me how many people love us. I feel very special.

I hope you had a lovely weekend!

I adore these sugary-sweet images of pretty girls in hats and gloves eating confections. What’s more fun?

Taking the Pixie Plunge

I have always, always wanted to chop ALL my hair off. I have never come close to actually doing it but it remains in my list of things I ‘have to do’. So who’s transformation is the best? I’m a big fan of Michelle Williams’ short hair but not quite as short as below. Et tu?

I adore this combo (red & white). There are so many ways to pull it off and I am constantly drawn to the colors together.

Hello Hollywood! I love this breezy lookbook with gauzy fabrics, muted hues and platinum locks.

Shall we dine?

Mealtimes are my favorite times. It’s not just about eating – it’s mostly about conversation and wine and the art of a beautiful table – but it is also about eating… One of the things I aspire to create for my home is a welcoming/chic eating area.

The Duke And Duchess Of Cambridge Canadian Tour

Or am I alone here? We all knew how good Kate would look in jeans but just the whole visual of them in rodeo gear makes me laugh. Check out the full gallery at the fug girls.

Let them eat cake

July 7, 20111 Comment

Yes it’s seven weeks before the wedding and no I hadn’t even thought about the cake until recently. It’s not that I don’t love cake, believe me…I do. I just had left it out and waited until I knew how the budget was going to shake out. Anyway, in one of those serendipitous happenings that you always wish for when planning an event, I found a baker in my price range and we made a deal.

Here are my inspirations.

I love these outfits for inspiration when the days are oh-so long and hot and you’d so rather be at the pool than in the office.
