Happy birthday! Wow, two years...

Favorite Things: feeling like I have an idea of what's going on in the fashion world without having to follow all the seasons and shows myself, your shopping posts, your humorous writing, Polyvore outfits, love or loathe... I kind of like a lot of things...

Least Favorite Things: Do I have to choose something?? Not that I particularly dislike them, but I rarely check out the Etsy shops/Vintage shops of the week.

Awesome job keeping it up for this long- it's gotten so much better over time and I'm sure it will continue to do so. Bravo!!

One of my college roommates sent me a book called You Can Wear It Again: A Celebration of Bridesmaids' Dresses by Meg Mateo Ilasco. I must admit I uttered those words to my bridesmaids. The best burgundy fabric we could find was a butterfly brocade, so we ended up making Chinese-style tops (no strapless, backless bra required) and gold skirts. My roommate (on the right) actually wore the top until the zipper died, so maybe I wasn't quite as delusional at these other brides.

The pictures in "You Can Wear It Again" can be a whole lot of fun with a gabby group of girl friends. I plan to cover the pictures in snarky post-it notes and pass it to becca (who will not make me wear satin polka dots and a floppy hat) to do the same. When it makes its way through all our friends, we'll have a great collection of comments.

Just click with you want a better view of these horrors committed to fabric and friendship.
Note to brides: It is unfair to make your sisters, cousins, and b…
