Totally Awesome

I heart my friend Martha who is a wickedly awesome graphic designer. Yay for her as she is getting married in October! Just check out these incredible Save the Dates she sent out that had us drooling: No, your eyes do not deceive you. Yes, that is letterpress, designed by Marth herself, done by the lovely Alee & Press, stitched by Marth onto fabric by Amy Butler. Clearly we are on the edge of our seats for the official invite, and of course, the wedding!!

Full Disclosure

I am a HUGE Archie comics fan, and I have been since I was about 8 years old. I spent all my allowance at the comic shops (do those even exist these days??), treasured every copy sent to me at camp (thank you Mom) and saved every issue in perfect condition and proudly displayed them on my bookshelf.
But alas, these days my only Archie interaction is a quick reading on the sly at the grocery check-out.
So imagine my indelible surprise to read in this article that our favorite red-headed freckle face is about to propose to one of his long-time lovelies.
Shocking news!!!
Which one will it be?? Well, let's be honest folks, in today's economy the good "guy" always wins. My money's on Betty. I am envisioning her wearing this gorgeous dress by Built by Wendy when he pops the question:
But it's a long time since I've caught up the trials and tribulations on Mr. Andrews. Perhaps these hard economic times have hit our hero as well? If so, marrying the wealthy Veronica would be a quick fix....Though a bit abrasive, she does have some serious fashion sense. I picture her in this number by Laeken:
Who will it be???? The suspense is pretty intense folks. I guess we'll all have to wait till August though. The big event takes place in issue no.600 due out then...

Tis' the season!

For weddings! Summer not only means beach and sun, but it is also that time of year mailboxes are full with wedding invitations. This year, I have a wedding to attend in July at the beach. I am horribly indecisive even when deciding what to eat for dinner, so picking a dress for the wedding is truly a challenge for me.

Here are some options I am thinking about:

Option 1:

Lauren Moffatt Long Sleeveless Dress

A maxi dress would be ideal, because I'll want simple shoes walking around in sand. the colors on this dress are vibrant and amazing...a definite option.

Option 2:

Dallin Chase Greg Dress

I also loooove this dress. The color of the flowers are perfectly suited for a night beach wedding, and the flowing layers are exactly what I'll need for dancing.

Option 3:

Built by Wendy Window Pretty Dress

First of all, this is my favorite color. ever. This dress is a little more casual, but can totally still work. I would probably wear my hair up in heidi braids.

I hate making decisions! But, hey, if this is the biggest decision plaguing me today, I guess its a good day.
