No... I Am NOT Getting Hitched



But one of my best friends is getting married this summer... And she asked me to be one of her bridesmaids! I am so excited for her and can't wait to be part of her special day. With that being said, I don't know of anyone more clueless about weddings than I am. So when she needed help researching wedding gowns, I jumped the gun... Because THAT I can help with!

In the midst of my research, this dress caught my eye. It's KILLER! And I found it on eBay! What I really love about it is the back... Which makes this a consecutive post about off-kilter bows (Disclaimer: I have an obsessive personality when it comes to fashion and food). What I like about off-kilter bows is that they are delicate and feminine without being too fluffy or juvenile (Imagine a six-year old girl's dress for her piano recital). Photo credit: eBay

ABS Dress

My new dress, I can't wait to wear it! Love the off-kilter bow. Bows are supposedly one of the hot new trends of 2009!

Stacey Lapidus


My Ongoing obsession: Headbands

Stacey Lapidus' hair accessories are beautiful! I haven't become one of the legions of die hard Gossip Girl fans (yet), but I do follow the fashion trends sporadically and a number of her creations have been featured on the show. Mischa Barton also collaborated with Stacey to create a limited edition line of headbands. More of my favorite pieces from her collection below:

The Little White Dress (LWD)

I love Cheryl Cole's white appliqué dress from the 2009 BRIT Awards. Such detail! The rest of "Girls Aloud" group looked fantastic as well with their coordinated pastel tones.
