I Want to be a Princess.

I'm over the moon, the royal wedding was everything I thought it would be and so much more.

I've asked Alex to start calling me HRH (her royal highness) Sarah and courtesy to me when he sees me and he's agreed. I'll be drinking champ all night as part of my celebration of Lady Katherine and Wills. I'm trading in my flats for some high heels when I hit the town tonight because this is a special occasion that calls for getting dressed up! If I had a fascinator I'd totally wear it, but I might have to settle for my headband with a giant flower on it instead.

Kate looked amazing:


I love everything...the dress, the jewelry, here hair and makeup and even the tiara which I'm normally against, but she's a PRINCESS!


My mom called to say that she thought Kate's dress was very similar to hers...I'll post a pic so we can all compare once I get my little paws on one.

My hands down fav moment was in the beginning when William turned to Kate and mouthed, "You look beautiful." Swoon.

I'll also post more on what I thought about the wedding once I can pull some coherent thoughts together right now all I can think is...

I WANT TO BE A PRINCESS!

Love Reese's dress, but I would have gone with gold or nude shoes if I her her...I also LOVE her hair...it makes me want to go get my bangs cut again!

This is Effie!


Elizabeth Banks is joining the likes of Liam Hemsworth, Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson in the highly anticipated film adaptation of the sci-fi novel The Hunger Games.


The 40-Year-Old Virgin actress, 37, broke the news on Twitter. "I can now confirm I'm EFFIE TRINKET in The Hunger Games," Banks wrote. "So excited!"

Always on time, Effie is very strict about manners. But despite her seemingly serious demeanor, she has bright pink hair.

She's All Grown Up!


Can you beleive how grown up Abagail Breslin is looking thse days?

Kate's Engaged!


She's not having a bastard child, oh no.  She's gonna marry her baby daddy.

Black or White?



White iPhones came out today...what do you think of them?

Mine is a 3Gs and has a big crack on it so when I'm eligible for an upgrade this summer I might go for the white one, I kind of like it!

Survivors' Breakfast



This is a little piece of an InStyle article...

We’re nearing the Royal Wedding date, and final preparations are taking place! Prince Harry is planning on throwing an after-party bash, complete with a 6 a.m. “survivors’ breakfast,” while Kate Middleton and her sister Pippa are treating themselves to facials before the big event.

Don't you just love the idea of a "survivors' breakfast"?  I'm totally going to throw one next time we have a big night together...maybe after Derek's wedding?

Anthropologie Items of the Week


I liked the unique color combination on this shirt when I first saw it...


and then I saw the back.  Sold.


This maxi dress looks perf on, not to low cut, not too form fitting or too loose, just right!


I love this LBD.  Unfortunately for me its made of chiffon and Alex hates the feel of chiffon so it won't be in my future but I think it would look super cute paired with turquoise earrings!

New Breaking Dawn Pics!


These make me long for a rainy weekend where I can have a Twilight movie marathon (which would naturally make me want to read the whole series over again cover to cover).

Etsy Finds for the Royal Wedding

I've seen a lot of really cheesy wedding souviners but these are actually not all that bad.  Check them out and the rest of these Etsy stores:




Swagger Wagon - Fraternity Formal Parody


First of all, I have to admit I loved the original Toyota Sienna Swagger Wagon music video.

This one was done by some fraternity boys and sorority girls from UGA who also happen to be YOUNG LIFE LEADERS!  For everytime this video is watch they will be given money to help send kids to Young Life camp.  If you click on some of the ads that will donate even more money...so help a brother and sister out and watch this video!

Do You Want to Get Your Little Paws on These?



This is fur real.  Christian Louboutin is making heels that look like paws.  Fail.

Jake is Bald!


Good thing it will grow back because I'm not super jazzed about his new look.

Drinking With My Bitches


Can we please, please, please get this banner from Urban for Brooke's bachelorette party?  It would be so appropriate for the occasion.

Bun Head


Why can't I look this effortlessly chic with my hair piled on top of my head in a bun?

In case you didn't recognize him, that is Michael Buble and his new wife on their honeymoon in Venice.

A Southern Girl's Lemonaide


I saw this recipe and immediately thought of two of my gin loving BFFs.

Hardee you should be happy that not only is this post dedicated you to (and also to yo mama) but also that I'm getting a post up this early...its a good sign as to what's to come for the rest of the day!

This drink is called "A Southern Girl’s Lemonaide" and is one of the signature drinks at the W Hotel in Atlanta:


Combine 1½ oz. gin, ¾ oz. Grand Marnier, ¾ oz. fresh lemon juice, ¾ oz. honey, 4 muddled cucumber slices, and 4-6 muddled mint leaves in a shaker.

Shake and loosely strain over crushed ice.

Top with soda and garnish with a mint leaf and cucumber slice.

Bottoms up and enjoy!

This is a MUST buy!



I got a sample of this John Frieda Full Repair shampoo and conditioner in the mail and gave it a try this weekend...

I AM OBSESSED!!!

It smells like Burberry Brit for women (aka like heaven).

It gave my hair an incredibly glossy shine and it was weightless so my hair still had tons of volume.

I'm going to go buy full sized bottles ASAP.

I also want to try out some of the products, there is a volumizing foam, a serum for fine hair and one for medium textured hair and that little one that looks like mascara is actually to tame flyways!!!

If I get any of the other products I'll give you more scoop on how I like them, but def check out this shampoo and conditioner!

To Sheer or Not to Sheer?


Those of you who know me know I hate wearing camisoles...in the past, if a shirt required one I just wouldn't buy it even if I really liked everything else about it...but recently I've been considering wearing sheer shirts with just a pretty bra underneath.  Of course there is a fine line between trashy and classy when it comes to this look, but if Mandy Moore can pull it off, why can't I?

Anthropologie Items of the Week



Don't know what's with me and orange these days, but this would be fun for work or play...I might even try belting it with a skinny belt.


I'm in need of a light weight summer scarf, this colorful one looks perf to me.


Love that this colorful maxi dress cinches at the waist.


I'm loving high waisted printed skirts right now...they are so easy to throw on with a solid t-shirt or tank and just walk right out the door.

Way to go Helen


I kind of love the outfit Helen Miren wore to the Arthur premier.  Normally I'm not a huge fan of that much animal print, but I think it works.  The outfit looks age appropriate on her but could also be worn by someone half her age.  Bravo Helen.

WFE


Watched "The Making of Water for Elephants" on HBO last night with Spencer and Alex and it made me even more excited to see the movie, I can't wait!!!

Blame It On Alex...

Alex send me the link for the Oxford Humane Society because we're going there next week and he has a friend that works there...I may or may not have filled out an application just in case.

Before you get too worried you should know that Alex will be going as my chaperone and won't let me get a dog just because she's cute...


But isn't she the cutest thing you've ever seen?


I picked out this collar for my hypothetical dog because it supports Team in Training...


Of course I'll need the matching leash too.

I also think this set will look pretty good with this amazing handmade quilt I got for my birthday...more on that to come.

My Dream Backyard


A girl can dream right?

Jealous


Totally jealous of her post baby body...she just gave birth 4 months ago for crying out loud!


But look how presh her baby is...and her husband too for that matter.

A Jelly Bean that Looks Like Kate!

Sorry for all the randomness today, but you should be pretty used to it by now.


I'm going to be so annoyed if this jellybean has been photoshopped!

Where is the Lady's Room?

If I ever own a joint that has public restrooms I'm def using these to distinguish between the lady's room and the men's room.



They're from this Etsy shop.

Uncle Jesse Playing the Bongos


I just thought seeing this little gem might brighten up your Friday.

Fab Find Friday...

Alex and I are going to Oxford, Mississippi at the end of the month for the Double Decker Art and Music festival.  He says the best way to get around town will be on bikes...good thing I finally got one for my birthday!

I think we need to get these for the big event:


For me.


For Al...obviously, note the PBR.

They're both from this Etsy shop.

Anthropologie Items of the Week


This shirt may not look like anything special, but its actually very cute tucked into the skirt below...would also be cute with some boyfriend jeans


High waitsted, but looks great on! I'm going to wear it this weekend with a white shirt tucked in and some turquoise earrings!


Love this and I think my BFFs will too.  Comes in dark gray and purple too!


Another high waited skirt but this one is a bit fuller.  It has elastic rouching in the back you could wear it when you know you're going to have a big dinner and have some room to expand...plus it has side pockets!!!

Why?


Serena, this is by far your worst outfit idea to date.
