More Little White Dresses

After celebrating another one of my best friend's engagements last night at Villa Blanca (how gorgeous is this restaurant btw... it was very appropos for the occasion due to its all white, and very bridal-esque, decor ;)

I am put right back in the mood for pretty wedding images, and in particular, more pretty white-themed bridesmaid dresses like these featured today on Style Me Pretty...

Maxi Time

A) I want to be on whatever sidewalk she is on right.now.  Those little posts along the edge mean only one thing: Europe or somewhere equally far away from the old US of A.

Saks and Bags

Bags by Marc Jacobs that is.  Right now Saks is having their Friends and Family event, which means that we get 20% off our orders with code FRIEND7... INCLUDING BAGS BY MARC JACOBS (though it excludes Marc's apparel and shoes).  These are my absolute favorites and I wish 20% off their prices would be enough of a discount that I could justify one...

just because...

Love at First Sight

Confession: I stopped by Nordstrom last night on my way home because I couldn't stop thinking about all the pairs of heels that I had found online and I really just wanted to see them in person.  These were my favorites of the Steve Madden ones I previously posted about:

 

They also looked really cute in the blue:

BUT, when I went upstairs to the Salon Shoes section, I had a minor heart attack and fell immediately in love with these:

I literally have no words for these pumps by Pour La Victoire... The color is basically perfect for fall and they are seriously so comfortoable.  The are very YSL-esque (but at a very non YSL-esque price) and I am obsessed.  They dont have this color online at nordstrom.com, but they had them in the store... and now I have them in my closet :)

Shades by Karen Walker

A few of us recently bought one of our besties a pair of these Karen Walker shades for her birthday... needless to say she loved them.  I am waiting for my own helter skelters to arrive in the mail... (muchas gracias to shopbop for the 20% off coupon last week).  If you haven't tried Ms. Walker's sunnies you are missing out! Here are some of my current faves:

Hunting for Pumps

I have been on the lookout for a new pair (or two) of platform pumps.  I bought this pair by Pour La Victoire from Shopbop when they had their 20% off coupon code and I think I need a half size bigger (annoying)...

So now I am trying to see if I can spend less than $200 on a pair of equally cute pumps... here are my favorites from Nordstrom that are all $170 or less.  The Steve Madden ones are all $100 or less, what a great deal!

 

Snood at Work

Apparently my co-worker already knew about the snoods.  Hmmm she could have let me in on that secret a while ago!  Anyway... here is a shot of her snood at work... from urban outfitters - so cute!  (btw, she did not know that they were called "snoods," even though she already owns several). 

 

 And here are some other cute snoods from urban outfitters too:
