Saks 5th Avenue Wedding


If you haven't noticed, I'm really drawn to rosettes. Here's a great, off-the-rack informal wedding dress from Saks. Adorable!

Oscar de la Renta-inspired wedding wear


So I've been trying to decide exactly what type of little jacket I want to wear over my simple sleeveless cocktail dress. Mostly, I've been looking at boleros and shrugs. This was what i'd decided on previously.

However, I keep toying with the idea of adding some type of embellishment to the dress as well. Now I have another option! A sheer little gauzy, ruffled, Oscar de la Renta-inspired jacket like this one above. AND the model is wearing the white gloves I want to wear! But I think I'd have to have it custom made. I might take a look at Etsy's Custom request feature.

Yellow Bridesmaids Dresses

Yellow is a controversial color to wear, I know. However, yellow and gray are our wedding colors and there are soooo many cute yellow dresses out there these days.

This one shown here is a Maggy London from Macy's. It's one of my favorites so far. I love the unique neckline. In general, I like the really girly dresses with stiff ruffles and lots of unusual stuff going on around the neckline.
