Things I Love: The Royal Wedding

History was made early this morning and I didn't let a 3am wake-up time scare me. I was determined to watch the royal wedding live and make a morning of it. Armed with cucumber sandwiches, tea, and donning a fascinator and Louboutins (a nod to Mrs. Beckham) I was watched the Royal wedding in awe. It was all that I imagined and the dress was just perfect! Kate has so much poise and grace; she is a perfectly regal princess.. Growing up I remember seeing footage from the Diana's wedding so I was most excited about finally watching a royal wedding. I grew up adoring the family, my middle name is even Diana because William and I were born just a few days apart, and this event seemed to bring everything full circle. It such an exciting morning!

Getting up at 3am was rough -- but worth it!

What are your thoughts on the royal wedding? Are you royal struck like me?

Things I Love: Pretty, Pretty Princesses

In my books, 3 am (us West Coasters had to go hard core to watch it live!) has never been so regal or glamorous before. I am still glued to the TV and am in awe of the world's newest Princess but all I can say is wow, just wow. Princess Cathrine was stunning. Still waiting for the kiss. I'll be back later when I have had more tea and have more thoughts! Cheers!!

Look of the Day: Elbows Up, Side to Side

When I see stripes, I must buy them. And when I am at a loss of what to wear, I wear stripes. There is just something about them that makes me happy and put together when I wear them. When I saw this black and white striped sweater with elbow patches, I knew I needed it in my collection.

And maybe it's all this royal wedding talk buzzing in my head but the elboh patches made me feel ahh bit British. Crickey! You aaare lucky you aare readin' this, because one is writing this in their best (worst) English Accent, can't one tell? I'm terribly sorry but one could not be more excited about the royal wedding tomorroh, one plans to make aah deay out of it. Complete with cucumbah sandwiches and tea. So shall we tweet together tomorroh about the wedding? One does hope we shall. Splendid!
Now I just need to decide on the perfect Royal Wedding viewing outfit.
Temperlay? McQueen? Oh the Choices...
