After the winters day that we experienced yesterday (I honestly do not think the rain stopped at all during day light hours and it was so chilly) I did not feel like risking bare legs today!!
I do, however, feel that it is just a wee bit early for the tights and feel that this look is very dark for August.

Today's look is:

Skirt - Charlotte Russe
Cami - Primark
Jumper - H&M
Shoes - Christian Louboutin

I had a fabulous weekend with my family - the weather was not great but we still managed to get out and about and have lots of fun together.
On Saturday we collected out wedding pictures (the proofs) from the photographer, we then went to get a birthday gift, afterwards we went to a local farm park with tea room for some lunch and a play outside. Sunday was spent at a family birthday party.
This weekend will be quieter and I am very much looking forward to it.

Here we go again...... I am going to try and get back into the swing of posting here. I make no promises that I will be here everyday, but I am going to try for at least once a week.

I almost did not post today as I could not find the cardigan that I wanted to wear with this dress. This dress needs a cropped or short style, I love my little back bolero - but can I find it anywhere?? I spied this little number in the drawer and decided to give it a go. I do not hate it with the dress but it just does not feel right!

Today's look is:

Dress - Vila
Cardigan - New Look
Shoes - Christian Louboutin

We had a fabulous family weekend, we had breakfast with friends on Saturday (on their deck, please let us have some summer like weather for at least a month more). Saturday afternoon we went furniture shopping as we are about to re-vamp our lounge.
Sunday we headed down the coast for a picnic on the beach and walk to Culzean Castle. Miss O had a ball and loved the adventure playground in the castle grounds.

Wedding!!!

The time has finally come for me to have a catch up post and tell you all about our fabulous wedding day!!

** This will probably be long and very picture heavy!!

Saturday 14th July 2012 marked the day that I became a wife and had the most fabulous and perfect day, wearing the most beautiful dress that I have ever owned!!

We decided to get married in a local hotel (that is very family friendly and has a fabulous outdoor space for kids). We decided that fancy bridal cars were not us so myself, Miss O, my mum and my bridesmaids all arrived at the hotel very early and used the bridal suite to get ready. The morning was great, we had fun drank pink champagne, got our make up done by a pro and enjoyed the sun streaming in the window!!

The ceremony was at 2pm and was just lovely. I had no nerves, I was just so excited to finally marrying the perfect man for me. After the ceremony the photographs began - wow, it takes a lot of the actual day getting the photographs done!! In between shots we drank champagne and tried to mingle with guests. Thankfully, most of them knew each other and the day was so gorgeous, warm and sunny that everyone was happy to sit in the garden and enjoy drinks, canapes and the candy buffet!!

The meal and the speeches were great, the food was just fantastic, very yummy and lots of it. After the meal my hubby and I got a little time alone to just chill, then it was time to start greeting the evening guests.

For the reception a friend who is a DJ provided the entertainment. After the formal first dances, I got to dance with my girl to some of her favourite songs (Beyonce - Single Ladies and FUN We are Young). Then the real fun started. There was a dance off!!! Stags V's Hens. I have never laughed so much in my life - what a fabulous ice breaker and great way to get everyone ready to dance the night away. The Hens of course stole the show and beat the stags hands down!!

My perfect family!

THE DANCE OFF!!
