what i wore

Pants: Level 99, similar; Top: Anthropologie; Shoes: Urban Outfitters; Leather Bracelets: Leather store in Wisconsin; Gold Bracelet: Anthropologie; Earrings: Goldie O (website coming soon!); Lipstick: NYX in Shocking Pink

You know those mornings where you stare into your closet, your hair still swept up into a towel and soaking wet, for days?  Okay, maybe not days, but long enough that you’re forced to skip that much needed cup of coffee?  Well, I’ve had too many of those days lately, and it’s not for lack of clothes.  So I thought I might try some outfit posts to catalog what combinations work and what I haven’t tried yet.  I like to force myself out of my comfort zone every once in a while, so hopefully this will help with that too.

ps – Have you tried NYX matte lipsticks?  They are my new favorite.  They go on smooth, last all day, and come in some great colors.  And they’re only $6!

All photo cred goes to my lovely and talented sister, Audrey.  Thanks, lovey.

yes to long skirts

so glad long skirts are here to stay. i’ve become quite attached to mine, even in these hot summer months. i love how versatile they are – just look at these photos. paired with a tailored button down or crisp white tee or layered with an oversize sweater or leather jacket, i’m loving these looks.



joyeuse photography

happy monday, dears! over the weekend, m and i pretended to be models for a bohemian-styled photoshoot with joyeuse photography. (isn’t m handsome? and the light!) it was so much fun to work with tahni – photographer, stylist (she handmade the boutonniere and headpiece!), world traveler, visionary – the girl is a powerhouse. and, ahem, her own wedding was none other than Green Wedding Shoes most popular wedding of the year! we were so glad to help her business, and i think it helped us feel more comfortable in front of a camera (less than 3 months until our big day!).

if you are a creative, vintage, or bohemian bride-to-be and would like to work with someone who shares your unique vision, i cannot recommend tahni more! head over to her website to check out more of her work (and to enter her anthropologie giveaway!).

sweet bridesmaid gifts

one of my favorite parts of the wedding celebration is the bridal party. all of your best girlfriends in one place at one time, dressed fabulously, dancing the night away. and since most of my bridesmaids are far (as in far side of the world! hello, readers in italy and africa!), i am especially excited for my wedding weekend. just the opportunity to share a meal, toast our friendships, and share in the blessing of the wedding ceremony together – i can hardly wait.

each of my friends is a beautiful, trusted lifelong friend. i plan to honor each of them in her own unique way with a small gift. though i can’t reveal what i decided to get each of my maids, i thought i’d share some ideas for you brides!

this fashion print is just so sweet. and this etsy artist will custom draw portraits for you in the image of your dear friends!


i love these sweet clutches that you can fill with fun little accessories. bonus: you can be certain no maid is found without a stylish bag with all her essentials – lip gloss, blotting papers, tissues, mints, etc!


this print is simple but beautiful. i love it!

do any of you brides have any other ideas? i’d love to hear them!

finally BHLDN

when natalie sent me a cryptic message displaying a simple url, i had no idea what to expect. but when i clicked on it and the webpage appeared, mimicking a pretty letterpress invitation and fading into gorgeous close-ups of lace and cloth buttons, i knew.

the time has come.

anthro is officially launching their bridal line.

i know; pick me up off the floor.

february 14 (how appropriate) will mark the big day. the wedding line, called BHLDN (pronounced Beholden), will launch online followed by a boutique opening in August of this year. their motto, Be You, Be Loved, is so very Anthro, wouldn’t you say? romantic and breathless. i can’t wait to see what they’ve come up with. the website preview is already swoon-worthy. lots of texture, lace, fringey poms, glitz, and glam.

AND it’s just in time for my wedding. perhaps i’ll be able to pick out a few bridesmaid dresses and accessories for the big day. i’ll have to steer my eyes away from the wedding dresses. if only.

BHLDN will be featured in the April issue of The Knot, and, small Cville claim to fame, Easton Events will be coordinating the photo shoot along with Rock, Paper, Scissors, who will be designing the paper products. these two companies are incredibly creative (check them out!), so i’m sure the trio will produce an amazing shoot. and yeah, Charlottesville! i love this town.

you can sign up for their email newsletter here: http://bhldn.com/ and if you have any more insider details, please pass them my way!
