You may now kiss the PRINCESS!

Rise and shine, lovely ladies! It's 4AM here on the East Coast, and I am decked out in my own bridal jewels and ready to attend the wedding of a lifetime from the comfort of my own home. Today is the blessed day on which William and Kate will say I do, and Kate will become a Mrs. and a PRINCESS! I cannot wait to swoon over each and every detail and of course to finally see THE DRESS! The long-awaited day has finally arrived, so let's enjoy while sipping our tea and nibbling on our scones.

Sending love and congratulations to the Prince and Princess from Pink Champagne! XOXO

(Actually, these warm wishes are coming from Lady Vivienne Goldie-Brook! What is YOUR Royal Wedding guest name? Start with either Lord or Lady. Your first name is your maternal grandmother/grandfather's first name. Your hyphenated surname is the name of your first pet, double barrelled with the street you grew up on. Play along, pretty please!)

Post-wedding update: SWOON! Kate was the epitome of the princess bride - classic, elegant, and gorgeous. And that LACE? Le sigh.

A Dress for a Princess!

Perhaps the aspect of the royal wedding that I am most excited about is THE DRESS. Do you all remember how much I obsessed and swooned over my own wedding dress, ladies? The dress is a BIG deal to this lady. And this dress? This is a wedding dress fit for a princess, and I cannot wait to see the gorgeous gown Kate makes her debut as a Princess in!

There has been a great air of mystery around the dress, who the designer is, and what silhouette it will be. More mystery = even more anticipation!

Will her gown have touches reminiscent of Diana's stunning dress with a long train and pouf galore?

Or maybe she will channel Grace Kelly's classic elegance in lace?

Perhaps a more modern take a la the fit-for-a-Princess stunning lace Vera Wang worn by Ivanka Trump...

The time is almost here... I am getting positively giddy in excitement! XOXO

Hats Off to Kate: Wordless Wednesday



Happy Wednesday! You all KNOW I have lots to say about the upcoming wedding of the Prince and Princess-to-be... but in playing along with the lovely Daphne's rules of Semi-Wordless Wednesday, let's reminisce about (and swoon over) Kate's fashions and HATS over the years in photos. Play along too, pretty please!

HATS OFF to you, Miss Middleton! Only two more days as a single lady! XO

Week of William & Kate

It's this week, it's this week! You all know what I'm referring to ladies... William and Kate are tying the knot this week! My dear friend, fellow Anglophile, co-worker, fellow Lilly lover, and gym buddy the pink prep and I have decided that this week will be ALL about the wedding. (You would not believe the giddy chatter that goes one between the two of us everytime the royal wedding is mentioned... and quite frequently, believe me.) If I were in London, this royal wedding map would assure that I was in the perfect position to spot the happy couple and most important DRESS!

Stay tuned the rest of the week for much more princess fairy-tale wedding gushing! XOXO

Happy Easter!
