Wedding Wednesdays: Claire La Faye Vintage Wedding
Morning lovelies! Happy Hump Day! Sorry I didn't post yesterday. I spent the day cuddling up to my doggies and watched bad soap operas while the rain poured outside. Seriously - do those people EVER age? I haven't watched it in years but they ALL still look the same. All in all, it was a pleasantly relaxing day.
I also spent the day browsing my favorite wedding blogs and came across one that took my breath away. This one is from Style Me Pretty and the bride's dress is nothing short of AMAZING. The designer, Claire La Faye, is new to the wedding world but is already paving the way for success. The label has a "heavy nostalgia for romance...old Hollywood glamour with a modern day silhouette...luxury with an edge." WOW. When you see this bride's dress, you will see every bit of this. LOVING the rustic vintage theme, the doilies and lace, the birdcage headpiece from La Boheme, the wonderful lampshade decor, and one of my favorite pieces, her rosary necklace from Waxing Poetic

Top Pick Thursdays: Dolly Pearl
Happy Thursday my loves! So looking forward to my last day at work before the long weekend. Here's a few awkward+awesome happenings in my life right now:
AWKWARD: T took the dogs for a walk yesterday and good 'ole Tyson decided to eat a bird in his path. A LIVE bird. The size of a PIGEON. Actually, he SWALLOWED it whole after my hubby tried to choke the life out of him to let the bird go. A WHOLE bird people! How is this even possible??? Ayy...Thanks for hydrogen peroxide, he yacked it up. Eww. Is it ironic that I wrote about a bird/feathered theme yesterday too??? Weird.
AWESOME: WOW - SO MANY:
(1) Seeing MY blog on other blogrolls is pretty freakin' awesome (and flattering).
(2) Being able to eat wonton egg noodle soup for lunch is even MORE awesome. YUM!
(3) Watching 'The Voice' last night and cheering Javier Colon on! So glad he won! I LOVE seeing talented people succeed and he TOTALLY deserves it! Did you know our wedding song was by him? YUP - we are true fans. YAY Javier!!! Click HERE for the post.
(4) And, the grand daddy - my top pick for today is the awesomest of them all.
If there's one thing I love, it's seeking out motivated people that constantly inspire me EVERY DAY. Even in the face of hardships and roadblocks, they stride on and push forward...and that is amazing. The designer of Dolly Pearl is just that...AND SOME.
Vi Hoang is the beautiful face behind Dolly Pearl and she one talented superwoman. She's also from Houston and although I don't personally know her, I follow her on twitter and she is so great! EVERYTHING about her collection is stunning. From the exquisite silk draping to the detailed soft ruffles, every single piece of clothing is made with care and I LOVE ALL of it! Seriously, there isn't one outfit I don't like and that's hard to do. Dolly Pearl is ALL about the elegant sophisticated woman and her line seeks out this unspoken romantic theme which leaves me in complete awe. And did I mention she has a bridal collection too? O.M.G.

Has your dog ever done this?? I'd like to know...

Trendy Tuesdays: Lace
Out of ALL the trends going on right now, this is my absolute favorite. Do I even need an explanation? My goodness...what girl wouldn't LOVE to be consumed, wrapped, or curled up in one of these beautiful pieces? I'll keep this post short...with a love story.
I'd win him over with one of these...
And dress myself in this for our wedding...
And on the night of our big day, I'd wear this to bed...
And lay my head here...
...and live happily ever after.
THE END

Wedding Wednesdays: Alex Perry
Good morning my lovelies! I've got Australia on my mind today. Oh what it would be like to visit this beautiful country, meet all the wonderfully beautiful people, and frolic along the sandy beaches while watching the waves roll in. OH YEA...and did I mention that RAFW (Rosemount Australian Fashion Week) is going on right now??? I am painstakingly jealous of anyone going to this fabulous event. I've always known Australia is awesome but the fashion industry there is out of this world! I've found SO many wonderful designers and can't wait to showcase their work.
One designer I found last week whom I've ALREADY fallen in love with is Alex Perry. He's only the MOST glamorous fashion designer in Australia and I can see why. Born from Greek descent, he graduated from East Sydney Technical College in 1984 and began working as a model agent. He dabbled in design, but it wasn't until 1998 when he started his first women's ready-to-wear collection at which point his career skyrocketed shortly after. I'm super excited he is starting a Bridal Collection and can't wait to see more of his work. Here are some of my favorite pieces from Fashion Week you could pull off for your wedding.

Wedding Wednesdays: Vera Wang Spring 2012
Picking the PERFECT wedding dress is something a bride should start planning right away. One thing I quickly learned after getting engaged was the long waiting period after placing your order. It takes between 4-6 months for this to happen not to mention another 4-8 weeks to alter your gown for that perfect fit. Luckily, Vera Wang, the queen of bridal collections has unveiled her 2012 collection and it is TO DIE FOR! Take a look at this eye candy...
