Royal Wedding Bliss!!

This morning i woke up to the excitement of Royal Wedding  bliss!!

It's no secret that i love all things British and all things romantic! This wedding was simply amazing! And that second kiss was so sweet, and the whole world wanted it.

How happy they look!

 I thought her dress was PERFECT! It was romantic and elegantly simple. And her vail and tiara were beautiful. It had the most perfect touch of new and old combined.

 Stunning! She is really so Beautiful...

There is a grace about her that i long to carry in my own self. I felt like a little girl this morning watching a disney princess story. And i am not going to lie when they drove together in that navy blue convertible i teared up a lil bit :) 

Because of this royal wedding excitement it got me thinking about past brides and other weddings.

They are all perfect in there own way and completely breathtaking. 

Happy Royal Wedding Day Everyone!

Pinkberry and Tacos.

Alysa and I got some tacos the other day at Paco's, they were delicious!

We have a fun time together hanging out and being girly girls and taking pictures... 

im sure any body watching us thought we were crazy...

Pinkberry is my all time FAVORITE place to get ice cream / frozen yogurt! I cant get enough of it, i don't even consider myself a ice cream loving person :)

Side note: I'm listing to Frank Sinatra sing come fly with me... and it's a beautiful day and all i want to do is be in New York  out side drinking a latte :)

My Dream! of a weekend

This past weekend we celebrated the life of my dear friend Charis!

We went on a lil road trip to Atlanta, where we literally shopped till we dropped!

I can honestly say this was one of the best lil trips ever! Short and sweet, and memories were made.

 We went to Ria's Blue Bird for brunch, it was perfect.

There pancakes are to die for.

Brunch on a Sunday is always the BEST! 

Seriously i love these girls! 

They have been one of the best things that has happened to me since i moved to Charlotte!

My Dream....

 Thanks to Charis's amazing husband Luke we stayed at the W hotel.

It was beautiful and a lot of fun! 

As i am writing this i keep telling myself in my head that this was seriously one of the best weekends!

 waiting for our ride to dinner...

WE got the party really started at PURE Taqueria :)

So goood!

 Thanks Charis, Raechel, Jessica, and Ginny!

You guys are the BEST!

and Happy Birthday to one of the best girls i know!!

Fashion Crave

I confess! I have developed a lil crush on the 1950s....

I have always loved every era of fashion from the 1800 to 20th century. I think where we have been in fashion has most definitely brought us to where we are today.

But since a recent discovery of a tv show called mad men, I have re- fallen in love with the 1950s  early 60s.

From the pencil skirts to the lovely hair styles and the most beautiful red lips, I simply love it all!

They really knew what they were doing in the 50s...
