Happy New Year!

Ok, ok, I know, I have been gone for like three weeks. But I was out of town and the only computer I had access to was DIAL UP! Can you even imagine? Crazy. So there was no way I could blog. But I am back and very excited about the upcoming year.

Sooooo, my first post of the new year is about THE WEDDING! Yes, I finally went to the wedding I have been talking about and I wore my new, long blue dress with an ivory t-shirt underneath, three strands of pearls, aquamarine and diamond earrings, an aqua marine cocktail ring, and two diamond bracelets. I matched all my bling to my silver shoes and silver clutch.

The dress was kind of Grecian looking, so I decided to base my hair on Jessica Alba's hair from last year's Academy Awards

I braided my hair in the front, just like she did, then I separated the hair into two ponytails which I then teased to give it fullness and then wrapped into two messy buns. I left a few pieces out and braided them, then I twisted the braids into the buns. It didn't look as good as Jessica's hair, so I ended up adding a feather barrette that my friend Chana Malka made for me. It looked really pretty with the hair.

The wedding was AMAZING and I was totally going to take pictures of my favorite outfits, but I chickened out. Man, I am totally kicking myself for that. If I get around to it I will try and draw a few of my favorites from memory.

The bride looked beautiful in her gown. It reminded me of this gown:
but it obviously had sleeves and covered to the neck.

The chuppa was beautiful with white roses, orchids and hydrangeas and hanging crystals. The colors were white (all the flowers, table settings, etc) and midnight blue (the bridesmaids dresses) It was incredibly elegant and sophisticated. My favorite part was the crystal curtains and beads everywhere. So you could say I had the best time and it was an incredible experience. I am helping with the Friday night dinner this week (I cant remember what it is called in Hebrew) for the new bride and groom and I think it will be lovely. Man, the Jews can really party.

Stay tuned this week for a post on the new awesome shoes I got from Neiman Marcus ON SALE and the beautiful new items at Anthropology. I am also working on a 'best denim skirt' post because I really need a new one. So feel free to email me with any suggestions at 'frumfashion@gmail.com.
