Do you want to see the prettiest wedding gown ever? I mean – this thing is stunning. The way it moves is kind of mesmerizing… and it also took 3,900 hours to make and is so costly (both in time and money) that the design house – Ralph Russo – will only make one per country. […]

I’m Lusting After… High-Low Dresses
Call me late to the party, but I’ve recently become obsessed with high-low dresses. I love that they’re as effortless as a maxi dress, while still adding a bit of glam and chicness to an ensemble. Dress them up with a pair of high heeled, strappy sandals, and some bling, or keep it casual with […]
RIP Grama

Wedding Wednesday | Engagement Photos, Part 1
Our engagement photos are coming up this weekend, and all I can say is… how random. On the one hand, it feels kind of like being back in school for picture day (What will I wear? What if my hair doesn’t cooperate?!), and on the other it’s one of these wedding moments that make the […]
