Happy Friday! I am heading to Charleston early tomorrow for one of my dear friend's wedding and to see my family. I hope everyone has fabulous plans! Here are a few links for the weekend:

I just ordered this dress in onyx and whitewash at a steal! I can't wait to wear them with colorful accessories. (It also comes in red!)

The 100 Most Iconic Wedding Dresses.

Everything you might ever want to know about cheese. Incredible.

Amazing romantic comedy interiors.  

I admit I was a liiiittle skeptical about Marie Kondo, but then I refolded my whole T-shirt drawer and I'm a believer. (I also gave away some items that I was holding onto just because they were gifts.) Here are a few tips from Marie to get you started. 

Missing a piece or two of china or silver? I know where to find the replacements! 

Why We Need to Start Dating Again.

I do not get sick of beautiful wedding gowns whether I'm working with a bride at work or casually scrolling though Instagram. One line that continues to cause me to swoon is Watters. Between their presence in countless boutiques and BHLDN and their attainable price point, there is a dress for everyone! Here are some of my recent favorites:

I'm not even sure where I first spied this two piece stunner from Reem Acra, but I am IN LOVE. 
I love that the dress reflects the current two piece trend while also being somewhat traditional. For a bride who doesn't want to go so bare, I'm sure a seamstress could connect the two pieces with netting or lace.

Happy long weekend my dears! Anyone have any exciting plans? I’m planning to take it easy and get ready for a fun week next week: making my friend a birthday dinner, going to the Boston Ballet, and leaving for a wedding in Las Vegas. 

Here are some fun things from around the interwebs…

I’m loving this dress and this dress, but can’t come up with an excuse to get one.

Tory Burch stores are pretty freaking awesome!

20 adorable pups going home from the shelter. 

I tried two new easy dinner recipes this week and LOVED them. Orecchiette with Leeks, Peas, and Pecorino (I might add Pancetta next time) and Korean Beef Bowls.

I FINALLY read Dan Brown’s Inferno this week. Amazing as always.

An MBTA map of Boston/Cambridge bars. I agree with some, but not others. Thoughts?

I’m a fan of mismatched bridesmaids, but these lovely ladies in complementary glittering gowns kill it!!! Dare I say that they actually might wear their dresses again?? (Plus giving your ‘maids flexibility allows them to rent their dresses if that’s a better option for them!)
