It seems like ages since I've posted something. I truly have missed it. So expect much from me over the break. This post is inspired by all the winter wedding that I have seen splashed all over the Internet and my favorite blogs.

Etsy Love - Florrie Mitton garters

These garters are deliciously girly and oh so sweet! You would need to get two, so the other thigh won't get jealous *wink*

Each garter is handcrafted in the U.K. by Claire, the woman behind Florrie Mitton. From her Etsy profile,
My range consists of beautiful laces, silk satins, chiffon's & tulle's, trimmed with silk ribbons, beautiful charms and also a special limited edition vintage range. The Florrie Mitton website is currently under construction & will be launching early 2010. I am inspired by Alice in Wonderland, flora & fauna, vintage glamour, the magical, whimsical & the ethereal.....

Florrie Mitton was my great grandma & is the namesake & inspiration for my shop & label.
She named the label after her great grandma (how sweet!). And we share a birthday; this woman is amazing! And he garters are to die for...well not literally, but you get my meaning.

Madeleine Peyroux - "Dance me to the end of love"

LOVE! She reminds me so much of Billie Holiday with her sultry, raspy voice. I would definitely love to do a first dance to this song. It's playful, but very sexy. Possibilities are endless!

Ray Lamontagne - "Hold you in my arms"

I ♥ this song! His voice, the lyrics, the raw emotion... Someone put this song in your wedding, please!!! I mean, if you want of course (*wink*)

Have a happy weekend! I know it's early, but I may forget to post tomorrow.

Dearest Readers and Fans

Sorry for my lack of posts this month!

I just started a new job this week. I am a Special Education Assistant at a High School and I love it! The kids are awesome, but I haven't quite gotten the hang of my schedule yet. There never seems to be enough time to post in the mornings, and when I get home after school, I just want to crash.

I hope to get in the habit of posting on weekends, and prepping posts for during the week. Bear with me, I'm learning...

Thanks for your understanding and patience ♥
