Time for an update!

It has been quite a while since I have made a blog update! This past year has been a whirl wind of changes in my life some of which were great and not so great- c'est la vie non?

I haven't really figured out a direction for my blog...I follow so many wonderful and inspiring blogs and I am just too indecisive to really make a directional commitment!

My best friend is getting married in August at her childhood home in CT. It is going to be a tented wedding with citrus colors (Orange, Yellow, and Green). Initially my friend chose yellow to be the color of the bridesmaids dresses which I think would have been amazing personally- some of the other maids were none too thrilled about the selection so she settled on Orange which is great too! I vastly prefer those colors over green *no offense to the green lovers*!

She is letting us pick the style of our dresses as long as it fits within a certain range of orange hues- I have fallen in love with this dress:



This is Alfred Sung from The Dessy Group! It comes in firecracker & fiesta- color swatches coming soon in the mail for the bride to choose! I am so excited I hope I look good in the dress because it is gorgeous!


As for Mother's Day I am not sure what to get my mom! For the past few years I have given her garden oriented presents but this year I want to try something different. It has been a tough year for my family and despite everything my family has been going through they are ever marching forward!

I was thinking of getting her this necklace from Dogeared:



Sorry I don't have an image saved of the necklace. It is the "New Beginnings" necklace from Dogeared. I love their website and I have been wanting to order something for a while.


Finally- my love of shoes survives...here are the latest shoes I am loving right now!

Sperry Topsider's Anglefish Slip on Boat Shoe in Linen/FLoral:

I am loving more shoes right now but I should save some for future posts!

With Love,

Chrissy
