just merried.

One of my favorite couples, Lisa and Alex of Chicago, were recently hitched last weekend. It was a beautiful wedding, complete with readings from a dinosaur love story, gourmet burgers and lots of cakes and pies. It was a recipe for success. 

I hate dressing myself for weddings -- I never know what is appropriate, and spending money on a dress I won't wear again is hard to stomach. Luckily for me, I wandered into Anthropologie one day and found a killer neon yellow dress with sparkles. Kind of Bollywood and not anything I would typically pick out for myself, but I decided to try it on.

I fell in love. It was a decent length and the color looked fantastic on my skin tone (both are next to impossible to accomplish). I snatched it up, needless to say. I think I would wear it again, for sure, as it's not too fancy that it can't be tamed down for work or play or whatever.




Me with sweet Chelsea.

Congratulations, Lisa and Alex!
