Unbelievably Cute Garters

You won’t want to give these garters away, so make sure you get a throw away one if you do a garter toss. I love how pretty and romantic they all are. Check out florriemitton’s shop on Etsy for more information.

Back Up and Running!

We got a bit of an unexpected email from Google earlier last week letting us know that Blogger would no longer administer FTP hosted blogs. What is an FTP hosted blog? I’m not sure exactly, but I do know that it is what I used to use. So, I made the slow transition to WordPress. It’s different and I’m still getting used to it, but I decided to approach the design following cues from Project Runway. You know… Is it a cohesive look? Would the same person have Better Together’s homepage and blog page in their closet?

I hope the answer is yes! But if it isn’t, here are some shoes to help make you love my blog again. They would also look amazing walking down an aisle…

Thanks to a gal pal for sharing a link to Mollusa’s Etsy page. These clutches and ring pillows just make me happy. Art in the form of a purse makes even a manic Monday more zen-like. Happy shopping!

Unaffordable Guilty Pleasure of the Day = Shoe Dreams

These shoes (Baily Feather – J. Crew) scream New Year’s Eve black-tie wedding… well, the peep-toe might be a bit of a problem with snow on the ground, but in this fantasy it will be an unseasonable warm 39 degrees.

Just sitting here wishing they were $32.50…

Pre-Holiday sale, perhaps?

Ah, a gal and her shoe dreams…

Oh Anthopologie… Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?

Exciting news Rochester Anthropologie fans out there: They are opening a new store in early-November at Eastview Mall in Victor, NY!

This means we can actually enjoy all the delights that Anthropologie has to offer without paying those exorbitant shipping fees. Happy Friday indeed! And I just happened to be by the mall the other day and took note of the massive size of the soon-to-be store, which I hope means good things about the size of the sale department!

Anthropologie can be a great source of rehearsal dinner attire, jewelry, accessories, and gifts:
