OH and we realized we are leaving for the Cape in a week - umm, where did June go? This is a great thing - I'm super excited, can't wait b/c it will be just FI and I there (usually bits and pieces of families hang out too), beach etc...bad news, this requires us to get invitiations good god DONE. and get packed, and get plans/car ready and buy a new bathing suit...you get the idea.
Oh well, on a better note, we are getting ready for my brunch and shower this weekend. I can't wait to see all of my friends - I know its going to be a special time. I have a fabulous Lilly dress I got last fall on sale which I have never worn and a great outfit for my friend's luau. I got some great frames on sale at Hobby Lobby (love that store! except everything is ALWAYS %50 off - people, I get the marketing, just make the prices lower) and printed off some of Fiance's handiwork - pictures of my hometown (where the showers are) to give to all of the hostesses.
Pick up this dress on sale - woohoo - finally Anthropologie. finally! I've been eyeing since they put it out, oh in March. I just purchased for 60.00, thats a deal for Anthro. I figure I can wear it on the Cape or for some parties.
Still working on invites, but found a fantastic craft site where we are gonig toorder our vases from (we wanted such a specific vase, I thought it would be easier/cheaper to buy them)
I'm one of those people who always knows what to wear. Its an aggravating quality, Iknow - my friends and mother have been telling me for years. I never spend time inthe morning figuring out what to wear, I just know - either I've thought ahead towhat I want to wear or have just put on a "go-to" outfit. In fact, this delightedFI when we first started dating b/c I really don't take that long to get ready. However, when I do get stalled on an outfit, its bad. Its really bad. I'll spend agood hour going through each article of clothing I own and end up a useless,indecisive puddle. I'm getting stalled on rehearsal dinner dress. I just CANNOT makeup my mind, I'm sure you all are sick of looking at the 50 million dresses I post -I sure as heck am tired of looking at them! (This was one of the reasons for theuneccessary aggravated mood today) - I simply don't have the time to trek to amall/good shopping area to try stuff on. We live 45 minutes from a decent mall but Ijust haven't had a day to take to go look for a dress, shoes, undergarments. OY!This is why I'm not working for the month of July. Amen.
On that note, I hope everyone has a great weekend and a Happy Father's Day. I'll see you after this weekend.

I like the dress and I am jealous you always know what to wear... do you ever try something on and it just doesn't work? or look good? I hate when I have THE outfit in my head and then I put it on and it doesn't work.
I LOVE the dress! The colors are great.
Have a good time at the Cape. I was wondering if you could let me know about that craft site - I told my mother I wanted a "Kate Spade inspired" bridal shower which will involve a lot of DIY and I have been looking for vases to make centerpieces.
Maria, when I get back to my saved links, I'm going to post about that craft site@!
