A Stand Worth Taking?

I was talking to my FF about cakes the other day and trying to drag an opinion out of him. (J/K baby, ILU). To my surprise (and horror), he said he hated cake stands. Well his exact words were "That cake is fine, but I don't like that thing its on. would it have to be like that?"

I kind of hate when this happens. I adore vintage pedestal cake stands. They are so precious and really complete the image of my perfect wedding cake. Am I crazy?

If I was having a huge 200 person wedding I would not dream of putting that cake on a stand but I'm not. I'm having a small intimate wedding and I think that a smaller cake deserves to be put on a pedestal so it can get the attention it deserves.

Retail heartbreak

I fell in love with these ASOS dresses but they don't carry US SIZE 2!!!!


I am so heartbroken...This was the shortest love affair of my life. I am not sure what to do. I suppose I could put on some weight.

** Edit they DO in fact carry a US size 2! I am an idiot an misread their size conversion chart! I apologize for the drama!

Surf Board Love

I'm not a surfer so I think it would be a little ridiculous to have a "surf" wedding but there's something about a casual beachside surf wedding that always catches my eye every time. This wedding is particularly special because the FF and I were just talking about having a bonfire on the beach at our wedding!

It seems like all the good ideas are taken... sigh. Well it's still an adorable wedding with another stunning couple.

Inspiration Boards

I adore inspiration boards. I have not been able to create my own inspiration boards because I am not a creative person. So now these inspiration boards are my inspiration. Not for my wedding but just to create inspiration boards :D

Inspiration: Bridesmaids Dresses {ASOS}

One: I am done with finals!!!

Two: It's summer!

Three: SHOPPPPING!!!

While I was at the law school the other day I saw this gorgeous little 1L in an amazing maxi dress. It was a halter with a deep V in the front, a kind of ridiculously low back, and the most spectacular summer print.

Since then I have been on a hunt to find a similar dress for myself... although I haven't found the perfect maxi dress, I DID find ASOS!

ASOS is a UK based online shopping website, and shipping is only $6!!! I saw these gorgeous pink dresses and almost melted. The best part is that they are super affordable... ALL these dresses are less than $100.



I obviously couldn't just look at bridesmaids dresses, especially because my e-session is only 10 days away!
I obviously went straight for the floral dresses. I love floral dresses. There is nothing more spring and more lovely than a gorgeous floral dress.

These are some of my very very favorites.


They even have an amazing selection of shoes, jewelry and accessories... I'm in retail love ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥


I plan to make my first purchase tomorrow and hopefully everything will go smoothly. I am not particularly tolerate of bad sales practices or slow delivery times. When I order something I want it in the mail and at my front door ASAP! I also do not believe in retail second chances.

Inspiration: Caaaaaaaaake

I just finished my last paper!! WHOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOO. Tomorrow is my last final then I'll be free to blog to my hearts content until I start work on May 24th.

Since I was taking a short break to eat lunch and get re-caffeinated, I thought I would blog about something I love.... CAKE. Here are some gorgeous cakes that I adore (I apologize for the limited colors/styles... I am extremely biased when it comes to cakes):

Better than a black and white cookie

In honor of my own biracial nuptials I knew I had to put this wedding on my blog. Although the wedding isn't really my style, the bride is gorgeous, and the pictures are amazing!!!

Enjoy
