Chiffon and Sequins

I'm loving Elie Saab, this time around is his Ready to Wear Fall 2011 Collection. I can only imagine any of these dresses for any encore bride out there.

For Japan With Love

For Japan With Love

We have all seen the destruction as a result of the Tsunami in Japan in recent days. A few blogger friends (Utterly Engaged and Ever Ours) have initiated a campaign to help those in need and provide shelter for families who have lost everything. Please click on the link below and donate, we are so close to our goal and every bit helps.

Providing Shelter:

ShelterBox provide emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies for families around the world who are affected by disasters at the time when they need it the most. Each large, green ShelterBox is tailored to a disaster but typically contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family, blankets, water storage and purification equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items.

Bloggers Day of Silence

In order to raise awareness and acknowledge the crisis in Japan I, along with other bloggers will not post anything on Friday, March 18th. I will post a reminder on Thursday, March 17th.  We will also Tweet the heck out of http://www.forjapanwithlove.com. Please join us, if you would like more information check out Utterly Engaged or Ever Ours (links above).

Thank you!!!

I'm A Wifey Now

I'm wifey-poo to Mr. E or should I say, hubby-poo. Since I'm no longer a bride I decided to update my new "status" and blog. How do you guys like my blogs new face lift? I've kept the template very similar since I like a clean and elegant aesthetic. I did a little spring house cleaning around here as you can see but I suspect I will add a bit more as we go along.

We are knee deep in house renovations, we have been painting rooms and will be tearing down a wall to open up the living room/dining room. After that we will be changing the flooring so stay tuned for the changes we are making around here.

Excuse the low quality pictures but here are our before and after pictures of our master bedroom walls. 

 Can you see that ugly blue on that walls? Goodness! Our walls are currently the biggest display on bad taste I've seen. Our walls are blood red, camouflage green, mauve torture and blue nightmare. The worst part is that all the paints are "gloss" on walls that are less than perfect.

As you can see we are in the midst of all kinds of changes, what do you guys think about the blog? What about my gray walls, a go or no-go?

The Honeymoon is over!

Dear bloggy friends, please excuse my prolonged absence, I've been trying to set up a routine and figure out what's next now that the actual honeymoon is over (I hate that!). Now that the wedding is over I am considering what to change around on the blog and what to do next on a personal level.

We did get a chance to escape to warmer weather and headed south. We enjoyed a trip to Epcot Center (Disney) since Mr. E hadn't been there. It was tons of fun!

Changes are hard but they are oh so good for you, who knows what direction the blog will go, all I know is that I want to keep in touch so I'll stick around.

Are there any posts topics you would like to see around here? Any changes you can recommend? I'm all eyes!
