I may feel anything but dressed up during the week, but I must say, I LOVE getting dressed up when the occasion arises! I’m such a girlie girl at heart.
This morning, I thought I’d give you a peek in my closet and show you what I pulled together to wear to my brother-in-law Steve and future sis-in law Joanne’s wedding today! I’m so excited for their big day!!!!
My father in law Ken, Steve, & Joanne:
My bday celebraton 2009 (remember those pink walls??)!
With Brother in law Dave…more SHOTS!
The first time I met Joanne I KNEW she was the one for Steve. I even told Eric after we met her that they would get married. What can I say, I can see love a mile away!! I’ve never seen Steve happier. :)
Joanne is going to make a STUNNING bride. I can’t wait to see her! The wedding is held at a winery in Niagara on the Lake. The setting will be breathtaking no doubt.
Here’s the outfit I put together…
I found this dress in the nick of time last night at Le Chateau. It’s pinky and floral- and if you know me, you know I love that! Luckily, it fit me like a glove, which doesn’t happen often at Le Chateau…usually I can’t find anything for the life of me in that store.
The ruching is extremely figure flattering and hugs the curves (or creates some!).
I thought I was going to have to buy new shoes to go with the dress, but my girlfriend Ashley offered to lend me her wedges. I’ve worn stilettos at outdoor weddings before and it ain’t pretty walking on grass! ;) These will also be much more comfortable too.
My gold clutch is from 2008 from Aldo. I think it was $19.99!
My jewelry is from Swarovski which was a gift from Eric last Spring.
Shimmery eye shadow is from Chanel. I bought this set in 2008 for my wedding and I just love the colour palette.
A shimmery wrap if I get chilly outside. This was a gift from my mom last year. Need to iron this!
Painted my nails with this old bottle of Revlon ‘Pure Pearl’ which goes with my dress nicely.
One more coat to go after this.
Now I‘m off to try and pack LIGHTLY. This would be a first…
See you tomorrow for a wedding recap.
Have a great day!




She will absolutely be a beautiful bride! I LOVE seeing such happy couples together. You will also look G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. in that dress! :) Have a stellar time!!!
I agree I was going to say the same thing for both gals! ;) I usually find it hard to put something together for a wedding b/c I don’t know if this makes you overdressed, or underdressed, etc., but this dress seems perfect Angela! Especially for such summery weather. :D Have funnnnnnnnn
That dress is beautiful! Have fun at the wedding!
I love getting dressed up for weddings!
Lovely eye shadow pallette! Do you keep yours until they run out? I can never seem to reach the end of mine, and then I figure it’s better to replace them, anyway…
Yea I tend to keep the *nice* stuff around til its gone…probably shouldnt!
Can’t wait to see that dress on you in pictures, it’s gorgeous! (hope that doesn’t sound too creepy! haha)
That’s a gorgeous dress! They really look so happy together, so sweet!
That dress is so lovely! I bet you will look smashing in it.
Can’t wait for more details about the wedding!
You clean up nicely! :) Have so much fun and congrats to your brother-in-law!
You’re going to look beautiful, naturally! Sounds like a great time for the family. I <3 weddings!
Love the dress! Can’t wait to see the wedding recap!
What a gorgeous outfit!
Enjoy the wedding and all the best to the happy couple :)
Have a great time, you beautiful Green Goddess – or should that be shimmering pink goddess? :D
Awe I love weddings! Have fun, can’t wait for your recap!
I can’t wait for the recap! I love weddings!
And I’m sure you will look stunning in that dress! :-)
beautiful dress and whole outfit, I bet you’ll look absolutely glowing! Have a blast.
I’ve never been to a wedding, but it sounds like so much fun!!
Getting dressed up + eating amazing cake + dancing = best night ever :)
OMG Joanna looks just like Penelope Cruz!
Yes she does!
have fun, angela! sounds like a gorgeous venue. my cousin’s getting married in NOTL in june 2012 at a winery…would be too funny if it’s the same one!
your outfit sounds beautiful – can’t wait to see photos!
i love that you have accessories and make-up that are a few years old…me, too!
I LOVE your dress! You’re going to look absolutely gorgeous! And I’m sure the bride will look fine too :)
Your whole ensemble looks wonderful, Angela. I love that you borrowed shoes since they are sort of a one-time need anyway and yes, stilettos and grass do NOT mix!
And Chanel eyeshadow. I posted a week or so ago that MAC is wonderful. Except that Chanel is BETTER :) It’s in it’s own price point league but it’s just the best stuff.
Can’t wait to actually see pics of you in that your outfit. The dress is definitely NOT a frumpy number :)
