Happy Monday! I hope you all had wonderful weekends! This past Saturday I co-hosted my sister’s Kentucky Derby themed bridal shower. It was a gorgeous affair, complete with a delectable brunch and plenty of lovely ladies in hats!
I chose an electric blue fascinator to go with my new London Times faux wrap dress. I’m so in love with the dress’ vibrant print and the electric blue really popped against it! My sister opted for a deep purple topper to set off her wedding perfect lace frock. Stay tuned for our afternoon post where I’ll have all the details of our Derby soiree!
I hope you’ll join us, Momtrends and Glamamom for Monday Mingle by linking up your style/fashion posts over at Glamamom’s site! She’s sharing what life is like in NYC after the storm and she’s also posted some great resources for helping the victims of Sandy including Baby Buggy! Diapers and coats are major needs!
Disclosure: I was provided with the dress, but the opinions expressed are my own.
