Its no secret that I love me some polka dots. And it’ll be a safe bet that I will be sneaking some in to my wedding. Probably just in some details though. Some ideas? well of course…..

There is also this polka dot dress on Modcloth that would make an adorable bridesmaids dress, but the site seems to not be working for me right now. Maybe I’ll sneak it in later.

Greetings from good ol’ Chaffee, NY. I’m home for a few days visiting family and what not. I love Buffalo, I really do. But its snowing. SNOWING. Really Buffalo? Thats enough of that. But yeah, I love being home. Family, Tim Hortons, The Buffalo Sabres, and early presents from my parents (even though I’ll also be home for my birthday too) :) So far it has been splendid.
This is what I wore for my travels Saturday morning. Its pretty simple. But it was early, it was cold, I wasn’t feeling so good, and lets face it - traveling alone isn’t that fun. Easy peasy was the way to go.
Boo told me to “get excited. You’re going home and going to a Sabres game.” This is what he got out of me:
jacket: Theory via Saks Off Fifth
tee and pants: Gap
scarf: Snoozer Loser
shoes: Blowfish

Today is friday, which means I should be doing an Etsy Favorites Friday. But to be honest, I don’t know how I feel about doing those posts. Weekly, at least. Don’t get me wrong - I love the amazingness that is Etsy. And I have lots of favorites that I could share. I’ll probably do random ones here and there, just not regularly. I gave it a shot, and I wasn’t feeling it. So instead - I give you an outfit post.
Continuing my love for Pinterest, yesterday morning I came across this image re-pinned by Suze. I fell in love with the proportions - short sweater over long shirt and wide leg pants. A few hours later, I was re-creating it. In my version, the shirt maaaaay be just a bit too long. But I think I like it. Yeah - I like it.

I’ve really been loving red lately. I didn’t have a whole lot in my wardrobe, but I seem to have acquired quite a bit these last few weeks. New favorite color? seems like it. It might have something to do with my wedding planning. I’m going with a lot of reds and yellows. And some blue. And bows and stripes. So basically what I’m wearing is completely reflective of my wedding style haha. In a casual, weekend-wear kinda way, of course. I didn’t realize that. How silly.

I have a new obsession. And that obsession is Pinterest. Its amazing for organizing all of your inspiration- especially wedding inspiration. Its like a virtual corkboard. Now I can see my ideas all put together in one place. Its also a good place for finding new images/ideas. My favorites:
Amaaaaazing colors. Pretty much what I’m going for. I also stumbled upon a tutorial for making those circular lanterns. Perfect DIY!
How had I not thought to have a drink bar?! Lemonades, iced teas, fun straws. I neeeed a lemonade stand.

Lately I’m really loving: 1. my new Spotted Moth Doctor Doctor Bag, and 2. my Seychelles heels from Modcloth. I actually got these shoes for christmas. But seeing that It was a snowy, muddy hot mess these last few months, I was careful not to wear them. Now that it is a bit nicer I don’t want to take them off! Obvs, seeing as I’ve worn them twice in the last 3 posts.
These photos were taken in Boston. At first we weren’t going to do anything saturday except lounge around and watch movies. But then Boo turned to me and asked if I wanted to go to H&M. Um, YES PLEASE.

This skirt is one of my first vintage purchases from The Garment District in Cambridge. Its not something I would usually go for, but there was something about this scenic little print that I couldn’t resist. And being the length that it is, I originally was going to wear heels. But when I got dressed, you know, it just wasn’t a heels kind of day. But thats ok, because I think the oxfords look quite nice.
I wore this to run some errands and then have our friday date night dinner with Boo. Lovely evening :)
