a few things...

I can't remember what I was going to blog about, but it wasn't this. I just couldn't resist bragging on these wonderful wedding vendors featured on this inspiration shoot featured on Style Me Pretty.

They borrowed my FAVE dress from our shop right now, and it is magical!

I'm particularly ecstatic that two wonderful vendors from our very own wedding, our photographer James, and our baker from Intricate Icings got to showcase their talent :)

Some of you may recognize the cake from the inspiration board?!

Check out the shoot and video!

I like to craft it-craft it

happy weenie Wednesday from my little velvet jellybean, Eva :)

The rainy weather today and tomorrow is perfect for cleaning, crafting, movies, and soup and sandwiches!

 in my down time, I try to make things to put in my mom's little antique shop.

This little hair clip bloom was so simple!

 I made a HUGE silk bow headband for derby parties 

or any other event you automatically want to make more fabulous.

 ruffles. I LIVE for ruffles!

 My dear friend Amber, with her baby Dexter, humoring me in a ruffled tank I made for her 

I made this apron for my friend, Zahra, who should open up a cafe, she is such a gifted cook & chef! 

She is always slaving away making us goodies...

Lastly, on this crazy wednesday post, I so appreciate your positive words and thoughts towards my mom. Our family feels them and a doctor gave us some promising news this week <3

Please keep the prayers coming, you wonderful people!

Have a FAB rest of your week darlings.

A wedge between David and I

Literally.a Wedge. Between David. And I.

What is it about vacations that make me want a whole new wardrobe?! It's something about wanting everything about your trip to be extra special.
David? Does not share this sentiment with me. If you want to see live entertainment, put David and I in the Roman Coliseum NOT with spears, but with my laptop, and A debit card. Bickering and pouting will ensue like you've never seen, as I attempt to save my "life" {read: convince David this Piperlime sale ends SOON and I need to act on these wedges something fierce!}


David's metaphorical spear back to me was "I trust you to make the right decision, love."

UURRRRGGHH!

So I did. I went to my shopping cart with said wedge, and clicked PURCHASE


Don't make that face. It's why he loves me :)

The wedge between David and I

You see, it really was a great compromise in the end. What I really wanted, were these Stuart Weitzmans that my girl Jen Aniston has been wearing around town...

on another note, I believe the Missoni- Havaiana collab flip flops and espadrilles just came out-and are all SOLD OUT. Would you consider spending upwards of $60 on this fun collaboration?

On another completely different but worlds more important note, now that I have you, my mom has been dealing with some pretty serious health scares, and I know my whole family would appreciate any prayers for her health sent our way:)
love you mom!
