I love this lighthearted editorial about getting ready and going out on the town. It definitely gets me in the mood for the weekend!

The Proposal

freja-harry-winston

We’re engaged! I am still in shock, completely. My sweet (fiancé – gahhh!) Robert asked me to get hitched on Friday night. I was totally surprised. My mom was in on it and lured me out to the Fayetteville square on the guise of taking family photos. He was completely caught off guard when the square was full of people, horse-draw carriages and even camels. We started walking around and he told me I was the love of his life – to which I said “you’re the love of my life too babe!” I did not get it until he dropped to one knee. I couldn’t believe it and collapsed onto him, hugging him. We are out-of-this world excited. His family honored me with his Great-Grandmother’s ring. Many more details to come!

Looking Chic When It’s Bleak

I rhymed! I think I post about girls looking fabulous in winter garb at least once per day. Only because I think it’s a far greater feat to look fabulous while braving the elements. Most style-conscious women can look adorable/lovely/chic in the summer with the zip of a simple dress, a few baubles and a tan.

When skin is no longer sun-kissed and cheery brights have moved to the back of the closet, the best way to be captured on film is in black and white…
