accessories

i'm pretty lucky, i love the 2nd pair of shoes i tried, i thought i was going to be in an endless return cycle with zappos, but happily, that was not the case. they're cute, 2.5" heel which is manageable, and i love the bit of sparkle on the top!



i never thought i'd get a tiara, but once i started browsing through them i knew i wanted to at least have the option, and this one is cute and sparkly and i'm having a hard time restraining myself from wearing it randomly around the house. not sure yet if it'll end up being worn on our wedding day, but i hope so.




and finally, the rings. not really 'accessories' but since it's all the same timeline this feels as good a place as any to put them.

mine is 1/4 ct diamond band:

and dan's is a tungsten & silver two tone band:



that's all for now!

the invitations

sometimes i really am scatterbrained. i've gone through a few proof cycles on my invitations and each time i submit changes, the proofs are no longer available online. and even knowing this, i approved the finals without taking screenshots of each of the various elements. grrr!!

anyways, i did manage to get a screenshot of the invitation, and it's so cute! the orange is the perfect shade (i'm still having a hard time selling orange to people, but i love it) and it's a nice, clean, contemporary look. i didn't want all white or embossed or script font. i wanted simple and colorful, and i think i achieved it :) now i just have to wait for those to be delivered and the envelopes i ordered, and i'll be in business!
