the main event.

Today I am super excited because I get to go watch Marisa try on dresses for her wedding! I feel very honored/special that she asked me to come along. The dress is such an important part, setting off the tone for the entire wedding. And pretty much since the second she asked me, I haven't been able to stop looking at wedding dresses myself. (I don't think the release of BHLDN helped with this either, which I shared earlier this week.) It makes me feel a little silly to be looking at these dresses all day long when I'm nowhere near having a wedding or a husband of my own. But the dresses from Vera Wang, they are all so gorgeous.

here's just two that I'm in love with from Vera Wang's Spring 2011 Collection

Erica

I think that this one takes the cake for me.

Totally drool-worthy.

Farrah

Couldn't you just die?!

I'm off and looking forward to seeing what this day brings. Hope your day is lovely as well!

parks and rainy days.

on wednesday i took the day off to do wedding errands with sarah. she took me to the venue for the first time. it's going to be gorgeous, i can already tell, even though when we went it was rainy and windy. it's such a simple yet beautiful space. it's right next to the san gabriel mission, so it has that very old town feel and these great brick walls surrounding it. we went to measure for bunting and to get a feel of how and where everything would be set up. it made me so so excited for may. just get here already!

here's a few little sneak peek pics of sarah's wedding venue:

after the rest of our tasks for the day we felt sleepy and it was raining. so we rewarded ourselves by getting cozy with coffee and a game of crossword cubes.

i'm sorry, i'm not usually a fan of dogs in clothes, but Cleo was just too cute in her little rain parka, complete with hood. and how cute is that liddol puppy face with big puppy eyes?

so excited that it's a three day weekend. i have a lot of little things to do, but i hope to get some nice rest and relaxing in there too. and i have real exciting plans for monday, can't wait to share with you all. what are your plans for these next three days?

Put Your Paws Up

I don't know about you, but I love the Gaga. I know you're probably thinking, "what? why?" But I've succumb to Lady Gaga.

Yes, she's a bit out there, a little (or more than a little) bizarre, but I love it. Did you see her entrance to the Grammy's? She came in an egg/womb. Now tell me, who else could pull that off?

I saw her on Jay Leno and 60 Minutes and was actually surprised by how much I liked her when she wasn't performing. She seemed genuine and had a good sense of humor.

And I can't get enough of her new single, Born This Way. I woke up singing it this morning and continued to sing and hum it to myself all da. I don't care if you think it sounds like Madonna because I like it.

i hope you can share my love. at least for this song.

guilty pleasure confession: I'm actually really into a lot of the pop music out right now. I can't help myself. I'm a sucker for upbeat and semi-cheesy pop music.

xoxo

p.s. I can't wait to see the new Britney video tonight.
