Winter white or wedding white? You decide! To be honest I am not a big white person. After having to wear countless white outfits during my sorority days I just disliked white. But, now as a future bride I am warming up to the idea of wearing white ensembles again.
This Loveshackfancy x Target dress ended up being a great purchase because I will probably wear it a ton for engagement or wedding events. It was super affordable too! But I will link similar options below if you are looking for something similar. Naturally I will do a white dress round up soon as well! I paired the white dress with this gorgeous white mixed crystal headband from Lele Sadoughi. This headband is the perfect bridal headband in my opinion. It really sparkles and can complete any white ensemble. To tie the iridescent theme together I carried this super cute bow pouch as a clutch from the Stoney Clover Lane x Hello Kitty collection.
Merry Christmas Eve friends! Today I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas. This month flew by. I had all of these plans for cute holiday content and the month escaped me. I guess that is what happens when you get engaged, go on vacation, and have a busy work month. Oh well! There is always next year. However, today I wanted to round-up some of my holiday looks and posts and link everything. I love picking up holiday items on sale at the end of the season. So, you never know you may be able to score a good deal on some of these items for next year!
Hi friends! Some exciting news here..... I am engaged! If you don't already follow me on Instagram this is big news. But, I got engaged while on vacation in Florida with my fiance. It is still weird to say that! But, it happened and I am so excited. I can't imagine being with anyone else forever. Here are a few snapshots from the engagement!
So, this will be the first post to kick off a ton of wedding content! But, had to give you a little context before I started posting all about weddings randomly. Yesterday I went dress shopping for the first time and I think I found my dress. We are touring one of my favorite venues next week so things are starting to come together. I will for sure do a post on my wedding planning tips as I am planning to do everything myself. Except maybe a day of planner! But, we will see. In other news Happy Christmas Eve Eve!
Let me know what wedding content you want to see below!
