10th Commandment: March 13

Mar 13, 2013

It’s that time of year again.  The save-the-dates are arriving and people are thinking about summer weddings.  Last week, I received an Ask Belle from Sera who is looking for a rehearsal dinner dress for her own wedding.  She’d like a flare skirt and a light lace or chiffon dress.

I also found this lovely lace dress and this light ruffle neck dress in plus size.  As for petites, have a look at this pretty cap sleeve dress of this flare skirt cotton dress with a v-neck and fitted waist.

    I have double digit weddings this year. The amount of dresses I need for weddings, bridal showers and bachelorette’s is appalling. Would love a post on items I could re-wear or re purpose.

    I just bought this dress for my August wedding rehearsal dinner: https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eliza-j-belted-lace-dress/3434958?origin=category&contextualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=&resultback=0

    It is absolutely beautiful in person, and its lace is a similar style to my actual wedding gown. It’s not chiffon, but it does flare a bit. 🙂

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The Find: Bright and Striped

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring.  I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far.  Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
