gifted bracelet, Hot Diamonds ring & bangle, Aldo ring & Coach wallet
On Thursday evening, I had my lovely bridesmaids come over to try on their bridesmaid dresses... that we ordered online. Yes ladies, online. Since our wedding is going to be somewhat non-traditional + my avid love for online shopping + the fact that I found the 'perfect' dress for the girls online = I said, 'What the hell!' and clicked the purchase button.
Well, the dresses have arrived and are even more perfect than anticipated. All the girls seem to really like it (some love it), and the colour is so vivid and gorgeous. Only two of six ladies need to get it tailored and yet still feel the size they ordered was correct (with some minor tweaking). I'm so excited to say the least and can't wait to see how they all look on the big day!

I've recently acquired a sewing machine (and by acquired, I mean 'borrowed' from my mom) and have been taking every chance I get to sew various things. I'm a very amature sewing, but am enjoying trying to make a few various things. Last weekend, I conquered a top (three actually) and when I showed them to my girl friend (CG), she insisted I try to make her one with an exposed zipper up the back. Unfortunately, I ran out of matching thread tonight, so the project is not finished yet. However, when it is, I will surely show you the results (provided it turns out).

I'm sadly unimpressed with how these photos turned out (but clearly not unimpressed enough not to share). Not only were half of them blurry, but I didn't get many good shots. I was even more unimpressed with who showed up (see last photo), which forced me to end this photoshoot earlier than planned. Fortunately, he wasn't there for me.
When Toni from The Fashion Cloud contacted me to let me know I won her big give-away, I practically fell off my chair because the give-away was soo good. The package has finally arrived and I unwrapped it with great excitement to find a plethora of wonderful things inside. Thank you so much, Toni! Ladies, I'm sure you will agree when I say this is one of the most generous give-aways ever... check out what I won:
{ the parcel - so exciting! }
{ asos cloud necklace - for Fashion Cloud }
{ re-useable bag made specifically for this give-away }
{ American Apparel, Le Sac dress - can't wait to wear this! }
{ Swatch watch - my favourite part! }
{ Kage signature t-shirt }

Good morning ladies! As you may recall, I had quite the eventful weekend lined up (yipee!) and thought a recap would be a great way to fit it all in (especially since I said I would).
The weekend started off with me arriving home Friday evening to these amazing shoes (above)! My fiancé bought them for me for our anniversary and the wonderful UPS man delivered them. They are a perfect fit and remind me of my recently purchased Anne Michelle heels which I'm already obsessed with after one wear. They fit perfect and I've been craving some new red shoes (thanks M!).
Saturday was a little road/shopping trip. Four girls, starbucks in hand and a rental car later, we hit the road around 9am excited for a full day of shopping. The trip was very successful (a little too successful?) and I was back home just after 9pm.

{ purchases }
I know you all wanted to see what I bought, but, you're going to have to wait until I reveal them in an outfit post (you won't be waiting long). However, to tide you over, I'm sharing one (of the several) dresses I purchased. This dress excites me and I can't wait to rock it.
{ H&M, size 8 }
Sunday I was up early (again) to get together with THE 5 (my high-school girlfriends which includes my bff) for breakfast. We met at (gasp!) 8:30am because yours truly had a jewellery show to do at noon, so we wanted to ensure there was enough time. Those girls are serious troopers, thanks ladies.
Afterwards it was off to do an A.Co Designs jewellery show. The show was very successful with about 10 women who loved the product and seemed to have a great time. Thanks to AT for hosting. Heres's a picture of my set-up:
