Dear Gossip Girl,

Please never go off the air. Blair looked amazing (is it sad I want to be a character who is supposedly 17?) and Chuck is definitely starting to grow on me. But what the hell did you do to poor Jenny Humphrey? You should be ashamed of the eyeliner job you did on her.

XOXO,

Me

P.S. Dear Jordan, thank you for posting about this, hilarious and so true!

We have our dessert tasting next Saturday, I am more excited about the dessert I think than the food. I want it to be incredible! I think we have decided to go with the popular all white look, I suppose there will still be a lot of brown with all the chocolate but anything else will be white. The other fun part is picking our display pieces, what do you think?

One of these from C&B (on sale right now!)



A bunch of these from CB2, they look just like the plates in the Amy Atlas tables I love so much



We have a beautiful vintage green glass cake plate we got off of e-Bay (sorry I don't have a picture)

I think I may need some jars...what about any of these?



Both from C&B, I know the bottom jars are technically for the bathroom but the large size could work...

This website has great deals on apothecary jars, some for under $10!

I am lucky that I just so happen to have a friend at work getting married May 1st (just a few weeks before me) who is also doing a dessert buffet so we can split the cost of the containers and then either divide them up or sell them on e-Bay.

Congrats!

Congrats to Molly and Michael!! Molly is going to look so cute, I can't wait to see how it all turned out!

YARD SALE

I was going to list these on e-Bay but thought I would offer them out to all you blog friends first. These are brand new J.Crew Marsala leopard ballet flats, retail price was over $200 at J.Crew. They are genuine calf hair, made in Italy and adorable. Sadly they are just a smidge too small for me. They have never been worn but I do not have tags or original box. Perfect for fall!

If you are interested please comment or e-mail me.

Oops, I know that is hard to read and I didn't mention it, they are a size 8. Thanks!

Congrats!

Congrats and good luck to Tina and Andy!

Sneak Peek: STD's

STD's are in the works! Here is a sneak peak, obviously some info was erased but I am sure you can use your imagination.

Top image will be the front, address will go inside the design, bottom image is the back, post card style. We found the design online for only $14.00 and we plan to use it on invites, programs, etc., totally worth it if you ask me!

Thoughts?

Homebound

Remember my PSA about going to the dentist? Well my root canal turned into me having the tooth pulled today and it was HORRIBLE, seriously HORRIBLE. On the bright side, it leaves me time at home to obsess over wedding details and blog about it!

I can think The Bride's Cafe for my latest obsession, is this bride not gorgeous! I love, love her hair and veil. I originally was thinking no veil but now, I might try and make this whole birdcage thing work.




Here are some great finds on Etsy and affordable too! My only small concern is that the birdcage veil/fascinator trend is all over the place right now but I still love it!

The popluar Twigs & Honey shop, she isn't taking custom orders right now but maybe soon, pieces run $50-60.



qgdesigns, veils run $60-75 and the pins are detachable so you could always use them again.



Sweets n' Lo, pieces run $40-50, more pins/fascinators than veils.



Portobello, $40-70.
