Drop it like it's hot.

I found all these drop-style earrings on Etsy.com. I've become a little obsessed with this website because it allows everyone to be an artist and to actually cash in on their hobby. How awesome. I have yet to join in the pilgrimage for the extra cash flow; guess I'm still trying to figure out what I can make. I don't think people would buy mod podged collages of skinny magazine models. Moving on. So my favorites are the feathery earrings. I picture my great elegant dress paired with unexpected accessories. And then have some of the same unexpectedness used in the centerpieces and other areas of decor. Also like the idea of my accessories matching my bridesmaids' dresses.

Latest and greatest

Save the dates are in. Catering tasting tomorrow. Finishing website this weekend. Vegas in October, possible trip to Mal Pais for the holidays... I hope I have time to soak in all the fabulous things that are happening around me. Work has been so stressful lately and it's been hard to find the positives. Until this moment, I didn't realize this was making it hard to enjoy the positives in my personal life. Will work on this. Tonight, arts and crafts with a glass of wine and Grizzly Bear (a band I've recently discovered. Thanks Tim!).

Filet Chignon.

Aren't these so pretty? I really like Lauren's little braids that are mixed in to the low chignon; they add a bohemian-ness that I love. Not digging the center part. Could be perceived as too 70's. Rhianna's hair kind of looks like my every day 'do, but I love the big side sweeping part and volume at the crown. Taylor's front wingies might be too "prom" for me, plus if my hair frizzes at all, the whisps/tendrils could fall flat. Jessica's platinum locks look so sweet and shiny. It's a little plain but a bright flower could be just the ticket. The model at the middle bottom, her chignon is VERY neat. Does anyone think it might be a little too rigid/50's housewife/Joan Clever-esque? The middle top picture has a very complicated bun thing. I like the subtle messiness paired with the complexity. Sounds a lot like my personality. Or a really good glass of wine.
