Love in the Air

floral5

This weekend has been so busy yet so fun.  I had my monthly meetup with my three best girlfriends (us older women can only plan for once a month!) and went to two birthday parties.  There are so many wonderful events in the near future that it's both exciting and exhausting.  Baby showers, bridal showers, weddings, and bachelorette parties.  I feel like it's all happening at once!  What I'm most excited about is my brother's wedding.  He won't be getting married until May of 2014 but we are already putting this wedding in order.  I have been selected as a bridesmaid and their photographer for the save the dates.  I had the chance to take those pictures yesterday and I'm excited to share those with you sometime soon.

Dress- c/o Deb Shops
Shoes- Forever 21
Hat- Forever 21
Bracelet- Swarovski

This Deb Shops dress is the epitome of summer.  I love the combination of florals and lace so picking this dress was a no brainer!  Since it's been so sunny lately I've been wearing hats (especially this one) pretty much everyday.  If you haven't noticed, I'm pretty pale and I burn really easily.  Sunburns are the worst and so are wrinkles!  Added plus: it also covers my crazy grown out roots.  I think you'll be seeing more hats over summer :)

  5. Love this! The hat looks super cute on you! Oh wow I had no idea that was one dress, it's adorable. I'm the same way my paper white skin burns if I'm in the sun for only minutes! If outside too long I actually get rashes it's really sad haha

  7. Holy shit! You look absolutely stunning in these. Not that you don't always, but the second/third photos are so perfect and wonderful. So much so that I even showed my sisters, haha.

    Your friends/family have so much going on and it sounds awesome and exciting.

    And yeah, take your time on that dress because I still have your sequin one because it's perfect. I might need to borrow it sometime again because I love it.

  21. You look adorable in hats, I wish I could pull hats off!! I love this dress, so perfect for summer, nothing better than lace AND florals!
    My girlfriends and I can barely make once a month happen, we're all so busy it's ridiculous. But it's so important to try to get together at least once a month.
    I'm excited to see the pictures you took for your brother! I wish mine would get married, it'd be such a fun time

  22. I simply love how your hair just compliments the rest of your outfit. It matches so freakin perfectly.

    oh, and the skirt is perfect.

    I feel like I"m saying the word "perfect" too much.

    Naw, I'm not. ;)

    love,

  28. I'm searching for such a hat, looks amazing on you! :)

  29. The stripes and the florals = :D . And it IS harder when you get older to meet up - moving/cleaning/work/life everything takes up more time than I can imagine. I just saw a friend of mine that I hadn't seen since Christmas! I didn't even realize it had been that long.
