Ever after

IMG_4017 IMG_4024 IMG_4028

The wedding yesterday was beautiful…I started thinking about how fast time passes by and how I remember being a part of different school teams/committees together, how we just recently finished our undergrad University degree….etc…and now she is married to this great guy who J and I both love and it really was the perfect fairy tale wedding….Next will be J and I! I am definitely going to go for a very simple look…we’ll see when the time comes nearer… I don’t have any shots of what I wore to the wedding so I will just tell you …I wore a plain black deep V neck dress with my patent red heels, vintage sequin envelope clutch and new Kenneth Jay Lane gold and crystal necklace…very simple but I think very nice for a wedding.

Anyways….today was a sweltering hot day….I changed into this near the end of the day …the morning (we went to McDs for my fave muffin…fruit and fibre ..mmmm)  consisted of jean shorts, a tank and some flip flops…. This corset skirt is the cutest thing that I have recently thrifted….it was in the children's section which explains why it looks so teeny tiny! I wore it with a pair of bicycle shorts which I have been doing a lot of lately…that way there are no “mishaps a la Britney” when getting out of the car etc…I'm thinking I might get a gold pair ;) …and yes, still wearing that cuff from Winners…I wore it to the wedding too and it got stuck in the brides hair when I went to hug her :s… little wee bit embarrassing

Well off to eat some lychee and pass by our favourite Turkish restaurant…maybe go for ice cream later too and then its back to a hectic work week….thankfully…in a couple weeks we will be off to New York!!

Outfit: All thrifted , Purse: Nicole Miller (thrifted), Shoes: Stuart Weitzman
