Summer Brights

As if I wasn’t already dying to go to the beach…now I want to go wearing giant rock necklaces and tribal crop tops.

A seapool. Could this be real? If anyone knows…please tell me and then we can move there.

That’s Amore

My love affair with Italy continues with this editorial featuring the ever-stunning Natalia Vodianova in Venice.

Tahiti & Tulle

A gorgeous setting for white dresses, bronzed skin, the sun, the sand and of course tulle. I’ve become particularly fond of the floral wreath and it looks stunning with her dark hair.

Weekend Getaway Checklist

I thought this weekend getaway checklist from Daily Candy was too fun not to share.
For a summer weekend away, I would add a swimsuit, a pashmina and a pair of thongs. You could remove the cardigan and jacket depending on your destination.

Way down yonder in New Orleans

My bags are packed! I’m ready to go! It’s hard to believe that I’m heading to New Orleans to celebrate my bachelorette, see sweet friends that I haven’t seen in a long time and get excited about my wedding in exactly THREE MONTHS from tomorrow!

The weekend has already started nicely, my dress was delivered today! I haven’t opened the box yet but I’m so excited.

I hope you have a lovely holiday weekend! I’ll leave you with a little picture of the future Bridewells.

Bridal Inspiration {Our Honeymoon}

We booked our honeymoon! AHHH! I’m so excited. We are going to Italy (Rome and Positano) for eight days. We’re staying at the Marcella Royal Hotel in Roma and Hotel Buci de Bacco in Positano.

Rome…

Shall We go to Paris?

I love, love, love these short films by Live the Language. I didn’t need convincing to know I want to go to Paris.

Also check out London, Beijing and Barcelona.

NYC/The Dress

NYC was wonderful. It was fabulous to be with friends and family and I felt very spoiled. I’m a bit exhausted today but so thrilled that I found the dress!

A few pictures from the trip…
