{shopping} hearts have my heart...

got these too, for the rehearsal dinner ensemble:

from free people.

{honeymoon} shopping success!

couldn't resist the urge to go to target and check out the suits...we first stopped by department stores and boutique shops where bikini tops alone were $68 or so. really? that's messed up..so on to target we went...and scored! the entire ensemble below was right around $60.

this thing is awesome! not only is it incredibly soft, but you can wear it as a dress or a skirt..i'm using it as a cover-up for my cute new suit! but beware..the sizes run big.

for some reason, this suit looks really weird in this pic, but i promise you, it is adorable on. it totally enhances my bewbie area and the drawers are not that big...the rings on the side can be adjusted making it more of a low-rider than shown here.

these flips are incredibly comfortable and affordable. we saw some yesterday for over $50. for flip-flops. does anyone else find this disturbing?

now all i need is a big red floppy hat..

on another note, i got this (only in gold) to go with my rehearsal dinner dress...isn't it super sweet?

from free people

{shoes} from betsey, of course!

while waiting to get my wedding dress fitted (i am always way too early for important appointments)..i casually strolled into betsey johnson...just to look...and walked out with shoes..

for the rehearsal dinner of course!

and a dress...


:)

{ideas} hey you..your slip is showing

..and i love it! how cute are these little pretties:



if you haven't yet discovered ysis, then go, now. and bring a towel for the drool. oh..and if you're a daily candy subscriber, then you already know about the 30% off especially for dc members.

{the dress} obsessed.

first it was shoes, then candles...now i'm obsessed with finding the perfect rehearsal dinner dress. now, i have one that i borrowed from a good friend of mine...and it's a super cute blue halter from j crew a few years back.. and it's beautiful on...but i kinda want my own dress...you know? however, things are kind of at a stand still right now (as far as employment future goes)...so in the meantime, i've been drooling over these (and am ever so grateful for the blue dress from my friend!):

anthropologie altostratus dress & viemoderne yellow brooch

BCBG cocktail dress

Valencia Boutique Dress

i know. i'm all over the place...and i'm okay with that.

what are you doing for your rehearsal dinner dress?
