DIY dress

For the past month or so, I've been greatly anticipating the Farm Chicks show! I'm super excited it's almost here! I remember going with Julia last year and falling in love with this dress but was a bit hesitant to splurge at the time. 

I was kicking myself in the pants when I got home and tried to buy it online only to find it was sold out. Fast forward a few months, I stumbled upon this tutorial on a knock off dress. I set out with high hopes to make this dress but then would end up frustrated and putting the project away before picking it back up several months later.  This past weekend, I decided to finally finish off this dress and although it doesn't have the a-line like the original dress I was quite happy with the end result.I added a belt I already had instead of attempting to make one. Now I just have to work the courage up to wear it in public!

Bridesmaids' Dresses Round 1

One of my best friends is recently engaged and wowie, the wedding is in early spring! She had us order this dress from JCrew. I'm not sure if they are going to work out because they didn't have a lot of sizes left, but oh I hope hope hope it works out! I may be keeping this dress even if she doesn't choose it :)

bachelorette mayhem

My best-ies are throwing me a bachelorette party and I have no idea what the festivity entails, other than a postcard I received in the mail that said "We may all be miles apart...". I'm still not sure what I'm going to wear to the shindig but this is a good candidate:

Let's Rehearse!

I got my dress in the mail today and I LOVE IT! I intended it for the rehearsal, but come on let's get real here - do you think I can make it almost two months without wearing it??
