It’s Wedding Week, so I thought I’d take a few moments to share my visualization of what I want on that special day. For starters, I want to look like a bride. I want a gown with high drama, glamour, and haute couture. I love the designs of St. Pucci. But you have to be careful with these dresses so that you don’t look like you belong on the cake!
I love the sweetheart neckline and the flamenco skirt. Pretty, romantic, and classic.
The drama of this dress is to die for! The detailing is just too exquisite for words!
Just lovely!
I want my “something blue” to be my shoes in a pale, pretty hue
And I’m wearing gloves, too
And my hair will likely be like this:
Or an elegant ballet-style bun that will show off the neckline and jewelry better:
I want a color this shade on my french tips to carry the blue theme further:
I also loved Naomi Pajon’s self-designed gown. Here’s a back view
And the front
What about you?
My baby boy will be turning one soon, but I will still need a diaper to tote on errands or when he visits family and/or friends. I don’t like diaper bags that look like such. I want something cute and stylish. Afterall, I have to carry it! Here are a few of my choices:
Wistful Weekends bag by Petunia Pickle Bottom $129
Petunia Pickle Bottom Sashay $119
Burberry Madison diaper tote $850
Burberry Check Heart Diaper Tote $695
Juicy Couture Rugby Stroller Bag $298
But who knows, I may even go with a budget friendly backpack!
As a self-professed balletomane, I’m loving one of spring’s trends–the ballet flat. They are versatile, comfortable, and most are affordable. The ones below are on the higher end of the spectrum, but reasonably priced and chic flats can be found all over.
Belle by Sigerson Morrison $260
Burberry $250
Chloe $475
Chloe Ankle wrap $525
Chloe Buckle $495
Jimmy Choo Wand Cut-out $350
Melissa Ultragirl Bow $130
Really cute and fun. The peep toe is an unexpected detail.
Miu Miu Jewel $630
Prada Madras Stripe $490
Ralph Lauren Umari Mary Jane $395
Classic shoe with the comfort of a ballet flat
There are several ways to use this accessory other than what it is labeled for. For picture taking purposes, I used my friend Barbie as a model.
#1: Around a ponytail
#2: Around a bun
#3: As a headband
#4 Bracelet
#5: Mock ascot. This is my favorite way to wear this particular scarf. It’s perfect for the neck and is an easy way to add color and style to most looks.
#6: Tie it around a belt loop
#7: Tie it around a purse strap for a punch of color
I went shopping on Sunday and got:
Peach lace scarf from The Limited $26.90. So feminine and pretty, I just had to have it! It looked gorg next to my milk chocolate shruken leather jacket but can be paired with most anything.
Perfect tee from The Gap $10 Crease T from The Gap $14.50 A wardrobe staple. I’ll be clutching my pearls in the v neck along with my lace Vita booties. Impatiently awaiting their arrival…
Belle du Jour cardigan in olive Macy’s $19.99 So cute that I have it on today! I love the wrinkled look and the netted details. Olive is a nice neutral color that goes well with most shades.
And a cute short sleeved crochet sweater by American Rag from Macy’s $49.99 (could not find pic)
Betsey Johnson has a new budget-friendly clothing line called Pink Patch. I love how she had real folks rocking her runway. Plus, she’s making fashion affordable for those of us 9-5er’s. I heart BJ.
Desperately seeking a pair of lush, peach stilettos. Must be at least 4 inches in height. Open to any fabric other than suede. Desired pair must be budget friendly–anything astronomically priced will be not be chosen–sorry. Peachy-beige or pale pink could possibly be considered. Open-toe, rounded, pointy, or platforms okay.
Literally. And I’m getting rid of anything that is ill fitting, is too small, too outdated, or things I no longer or will never wear.
The above picture features a shirt that I loved during my pregnancy. It framed my belly just so right, was comfortable, and cute! Now, not so much. I don’t want anything that makes me look remotely pregnant. It’s gone!
It’s just ridiculous to hold on to these items. I already bagged and passed on a slew of shirts for my 12 year-old niece. Mind you, I’m 33! A new year, a new me.
