(The last shoes were my sisters… I just liked the picture)

I bought my shoes at Bandolino at the Irvine Spectrum, on sale, for $40.

Tip: Buy shoes you love! I wear mine all the time to work now and every time I do I am reminded of our day!

I need one more day off. Tomorrow can’t be Monday already… can it? Ugh.  The weekend went by so quickly.  We went up to Ventura for a memorial, had dinner on the pier and then I spent a good portion of today shopping and then eating at my moms house. A weekend full of good things, but a busy one. I now need a day of rest. Let me get to the stuff you are interested in before I bore myself, and you, with more boring details

Some gorgeous shoes from the one and only J. Crew

And a wedding filled with gorgeous details by the one and only Matthew Morgan.

(buy them here, saw them here)

it is hump day.

you know, cause it is in the middle of the week.

anyways.

I may have to check out these shoes (via High Street Love) at payless today…

I love me some Lela Rose, but to be completely honest, some of her payless line shoes are really uncomfortable.  I wonder how the designers decide what things to sell at payless or target and which ones to sell a Neiman’s. I mean, do they design something fabulous and then say “oh this one is for payless? ok lets remove the pretty bow and stick on a little ribbon thing, and take out the comfort strip” or do they have nothing to do with the design and rather just sign their name to something that some beginner designer drew up?  I wonder.

Also, a new save the date I just designed for a bride whose theme is black and white stripes and green

I am loving this bridal shoot over at Evoke Photography.

So close it hurts people. J. Crew, grey peep toes with a bow! If only it wasn’t orange…. sigh.

(Buy them here, first seen here)

Good morning!  Well, this weekend was another one of those where I got a lot of wedding stuff done without meaning to! Some things I/we accomplished:

-Tasted pastries from the bakery we are going to order our cakes and other desserts from. Current leaders are a raspberry shortbread, peach custard, apple pie and german cheesecake. mmmm
-Started designing the programs (Super simple but fun!)
-Started designing the kids booklet (to be waiting for each kid at the kids table at the reception)
-preliminary napkin designs
-found out that the florist by night girl I had met with is about half the price of a professional florist. Score! 

Today I will be in and out… I have to go to the labor board (or something like that) to file my wage claim since I still haven’t gotten a paycheck and then my friend Lauren is coming over to check out her wedding invites! I am excited about them, they turned out great if I do say so myself!!  But I do have a real wedding for you a little later from an awesome photographer, Missy!  Here is just a taste, check back later for the whole thing!

I got a few questions about this brides shoes.

Are you ready?  Old Navy. Seriously.

My new 2009 calendar from Linda & Harriet (it is gorgeous and I looove it!)

And my new Kate Spade shoes! Ok, these were more of a gift to myself They were on sale for $164 PLUS another 30% (down from $370!) so I had to buy them I made it ok cause the money I will get from a job I  just finished covers them (Yes I spent the money before I got it… I don’t see the problem… )  I do realize they are marigold… but they are too cute to save for the wedding!

No traveling for me this year, instead a much needed staycation! I’ll be back at work, and blogging, on Monday. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!
