Vintage Whites

I love a soft vintage white with grey undertones.  Perfect for a winter or a rustic wedding, the colors set a perfect backdrop to a hauntingly beautiful white wedding.

A lot of vintage lace also often has either tea-colored or grey wash – and whether on a dress or as decor (think table runners, etc.), the pops of vintage lace really adds to the feel of the white wedding.

Tuesday Shoesday

Prepare yourself – these booties are not only awesome, they’re rose gold.  I’m completely taken with the rose gold trend, and I’m hoping it’s here to stay.

These Badgley Mischka’s also play double duty, both on trend with the glossy rose gold hue, but also the peep-toe bootie cut and wide satin ribbon lacing is a chic nod to vintage wedding booties of the 1920s and 1930s. And if you scroll down, you’ll notice the side-paneling of the shoes is actually lace.  A few studs, and these could be my dream heels.

**The Bride’s shoes are actually the Badgley Mischka Olaf Bootie Badgley from 2010.  Unfortunately, that style is long sold out, though I put together a guide to several luxe Badgley Mischka styles a few weeks back that might help …

Pancake Bar

In some small (or major) way, this post is probably me wishing it was still Sunday – but since it’s not, I’ll dream in brunch and eat microwaveable oatmeal instead (because everyone knows all good diet intentions start on Monday … by Wednesday I’ll be eating cookies, chocolate pudding, and popcorn for breakfast.)

Which brings me to this pancake bar.  Complete with fluffy pancakes, fruit and candy toppings, drizzles and syrups, and juice, this is a breakfast sugar high with my name on it.

Also, any table display that features chalkboard is awesome in my book. {Exhibit A}

Wedding brunches are a huge hit, because really, who doesn’t love breakfast?  Plus, the brunch can work either as the main event and/or the end to a perfect wedding weekend.  And a brunch can be gussied up with mimosas, bloody marys, even a coffee bar.  Get creative!

Remember when I talked about this adorable couple who served a sticky bun cake tower (in lieu of a traditional cake) at their brunch reception?  Genius, I tell you.
