J&R's Wedding

As promised here are some pics of what people wore to our friends wedding. I will hopefully also post a pic of the bride but I thought I'd give her veto power and as she's currently on her honeymoon.....

First and most importantly here's me! I got the dress at Macy's, and the wrap from Amazon. My jewelry's from Shane Co. (Can you believe I forgot to wear my wedding ring?). My sunglasses are Dior but I got them from Ebay. Dave didn't get my shoes in the picture but they are silver and from Chinese Laundry.

I don't know who this woman was, but is this not an awesome outfit? I could never pull it off but on her it was fabu.
Here's the dress I LOVED! I didn't get a great picture of it and again I don't know who she was but I was in love. I wanted to ask her if it was vintage but never got the chance. Now this one I could wear. The description that comes to my mind is vampire chic. Not goth that's to costumey.
Here's a better picture of the dress but not quite so nice of her. I hope she'll forgive me if she ever sees my site.
And here is an absolutely gorgeous vintage ring that a lady names Cheryl was wearing. She said it had been her grandmothers.

Sleep Deprivation Isn't A Beauty Enhancer

My Mother in Law came to stay with us for a few days starting last night. She's an awesome lady who I like very much this isn't going to be an in law rant. She lives in another state so she doesn't get to see Fiona that often and we'd been telling her how happy and well behaved she is now. Yeah that was stupid of us. We jinxed it and she was a complete brat all last night & I mean ALL NIGHT. So I was barely functioning when I got dressed, be happy nothing actually clashes. As a result nothing new today. Editor pants and the teal sweater from Express. The Capelett from Newport News. I will mention that the earrings are from Shane Co. which I don't think I've mentioned before and my purse is from Coach and I bought it at Macy's a couple years ago.

Attempting the Grey Eyeshadow Dark Lips Thing

Lets take a moment to talk about my boobs (Oh the hits I'm gonna get from that ha ha). I'm not sure if it comes through clearly in the pictures but this shirt has a ruffle down the front which is usually something I avoid like the plague (Strange phrase. The plague is pretty easy to avoid ruffles less so) because lets be honest my boobs don't need any enhancing. I was a D cup before I went in to high school and for some unknown reason I gained another cup size a couple years ago and then I got pregnant (sigh). This shirt strangely actually minimises the scary hugeness of my chest and as an added bonus makes me look thinner than I really am. Which is why it's important to occasionally try something you would normally avoid.

The shirt is from Newport News. The pants are (you guessed it) Old Navy. You can't really see my earrings but they're from Shane Co. The shoes (which you also can't see very well ) are black Mary Jane's from a company called Soft and are pretty much my every day work shoes because they are so comfortable and versatile.

I was reading an article over the weekend in Lucky about dark lips being in so I'm being brave and trying it out. Generally I go for very natural makeup and only do red lips if were going somewhere in the evening. The whole effect today is a bit goth or vampy which is cool with me I feel kinda sexy and I've already been told three times today that I look nice (sweet).
