What I Wore Wednesday: Weddings

This past weekend NotBlondeHusband and I went to the evening reception for his cousin's wedding. Shock of all shocks--I wore a Cynthia Rowley dress--if it ain't broke don't fix it.

on NotBlondeHusband

Ted Baker Suit and Tie

Please ignore the giant bruise on my knee, at least it matched my dress right? I changed it up a little bit and wore an oversized purple flower corsage on my jacket and painted my toenails teal to match the dress. I love how versitle the dress is that I can wear it to work or a wedding but it would be pretty boring to show you the same dress you've seen a gazillion times over again. 

Today is NotBlondeHusband and my fourth wedding anniversary. We met 9 years ago this month, have lived together over 8 years and were married 4 years ago today. We both put up with each other's bullshit and I genuinely can't think of anyone else more perfect for me. We've had our ups and downs but after 9 years who hasn't?

I could say lots of things about our anniversary but instead I'm going to let the photos do the talking. I hope you don't mind my What I Wore Wednesday is a flashback but I thought it was pretty appropriate. You've already seen my purple wedding shoes but here is the rest of what I wore at my wedding. It is a bit picture heavy but it's my anniversary I think I can get away with it! All of the images below are property of White Photography in Cincinnati, Ohio.

What I Wore Wednesday: Toddlers in Tuxedos

So technically this wasn't this week but my sister just got her photos back and how freaking adorable do Blondie Boy and his buddy Leo look in their tuxedos? Blondie Boy was the flower dude in my sister's wedding last October and he and Leo wore these adorable tuxedos from My Tuxedo. The tuxedos are surprisingly affordable (packages start at £20!) and I love that the waist of the pants were adjustable and they came un-hemmed so BB will be able to wear them again in the future.

Tuxedos- My Tuxedo

Shoes- Converse All Stars

The only photo I have of myself from the past week (even though I had several proper outfits this week) is from Blondie Boy's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Birthday party so it will have to do!

T-Shirt- Dunnes

Skinny Jeans-Old Navy

Transatlantic Blonde was provided tuxedos for review but all opinions are our own.

What I Wore Wednesday: Wedding, Hotel du Vin Glasgow

Yesterday my Mother in Law got married! Apologies for the late post but we've just gotten home after a fabulous day and night at Hotel du Vin at One Devonshire Gardens in Glasgow. I posted a few weeks ago about the dress I got for the wedding but here we all are properly styled up!

What I Wore Wednesday

This technically isn't what I wore but what I'm going to wear to my mother-in-law's wedding and I need y'all to help me out with some styling suggestions please!

Embellished Frost Prom Dress- Oasis

First off; yes, I am too lazy to take off my boots and jeans when trying on dresses. There is nothing worse that getting all the way undressed (winter means layers) to try on a dress that doesn't fit. Not only are you defeated but then you still have to get dressed again-not fun.

I love the full skirt and pockets. I'd never normally wear this colour but I like it and it won't clash with NBH and Blondie Boy's kilts but I'm not sure how to style the dress. The wedding is early January so tights of some shade are needed. I'm not normally a fan of nude panty hose but would you wear black? What colour shoes? Do I need a faux fur shrug? So many questions! See I need your help! What would you do?

The Gallery: Black and White

I haven't done the Gallery in ages because well I'm lazy and I forget. This week's theme is black and white and since I've been missing my Grandparents a lot recently I knew exactly what I'd post. I'm very lucky to have three of my grandparents still living and it's hard being so far away from home. Below are my maternal and then paternal grandparent's wedding photos. 

 How awesome are the dark nails and a tiara! My Grandma Bess is the original Jewish Princess :) I also just love how genuinely happy they both are in this photo.

I have the exact same shape face as my Grandma Jane and I love her hair. Massive hugs to my Grandpa Lee who is in the hospital right now; he's a tough cookie at 93 and I know he'll be back to his old self soon. It's also their 66th wedding anniversary tomorrow! Happy anniversary! xoxo

3 Years Of Wedded This, I Mean Bliss :)

But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
