The summer dress.

If you run quick to Anthropologie you will probably still be able to snag this fabulous summer dress. On SALE too. I was meant to buy this dress. It was fate how I found it. Everyday for the past week I’ve been walking by the windows of Anthro admiring not this dress, but a different one. The original dress I thought I was meant to own was hot pink with an amazingly fun ribbon around the waist. I thought I was in love. I even dreamed about how I would wear it to reunion weekend, or a wedding this summer. But as soon as I saw the dress in person I knew I had been fooled. It was cheap looking. And their was NO ribbon (it was an added accessory, a belt turned backwards). AND it cost $98. Puh-lease. I was a little ticked off about the misrepresentation between the window display and the real thing that I did a quick 180 to walk out of the store. That’s when I saw the rack. The rack filled with these funky-cute summery dresses. Orangey and pink and navy blue. They were calling my name. And so, I listened and tried one on. And it was so perfectly adorable I decided then and there that this would be my new dress. My new summer dress. I love summer and I love dresses. And I love love love this $48.00 colorful, pretty, flowery, fantastic dress. Yes, yes, YES.

Gracey Bags

How adorable are these clutches that Bailey gave us as bridesmaids gifts?? They are all so fitting for each of us!

They are from Etsy (a true love of mine), a designer known as Graceybags who makes individual bags and also bags just for brides-to-be. (She also has a blog: Gracey Bags. The picture above is from her blog and I was so excited to find it because I didn’t get a chance to take a picture of Emilie and Lauren’s bags. Jackpot.)

The handmade bags come in all different fabrics. They are so colorful and fun!

Here is my bag…
Eee! LOVE!!!
Thanks Bails!!! Cutest idea EVER!

Photo Booth!

Fortunately I did not wake up with that monday morning feeling today. Probably because I am still on my wedding weekend high. After unpacking my things last night I forgot we had these fun pictures from the reception! Bailey and Kevin had a photo booth at their wedding for guests to take pictures and leave in a scrapbook. It was such a cute idea and we had so much fun posing for the camera. We even stole the bride away for a few minutes and got some pictures with her!
