I wore this fabulous black lace midi dress last weekend to the lovely Longines Hermitage Derby Toast Event! It was such a blast and this was the perfect dress to wear for the night.  Andrew was my lovely date and we had such a blast, nibbling on some food, indulging in a few mint juleps {21C has the best ones}, and dancing the night away!

I love how this black lace midi dress looks really expensive, but the price tag rings in at right under $150, which is not bad at all, especially for the quality! It’s comfortable, stylish, and has a great ‘midi’ length.  However…my dress did get caught on a random man’s belt as he was squeezing by me to get to the cocktail area.  I’m not quite sure how it happened but it got attached to my lace and we just awkwardly stood very close to one another until it was resolved.  Needless to say, it was weird {but extremely funny}.

Hope your Friday is a great one! Thanks for stopping by!

10/27/18 Mr. & Mrs. White

There’s not a day that goes by when I don’t feel so blessed to be Jordan’s wife. He is my everything. These photos and video are the sweetest reminder of our love for one another. So, grab a cup of coffee, pull up a seat, and try not to bawl your eyes out (because I know we did). Every time we look through our photos and watch our video, we cry the happiest tears.

The Proposal

It’s crazy what can happen in a year. I met the love of my life and the rest is history. I was having a hard time ending this post, because frankly, I think I could talk about that evening forever. Then I realized that this post doesn’t have an ending, but instead, a beginning. Thank you so much for all of the love, excitement, and gratitude.

Dark Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

One of my favorite things to do in the fall is bake my dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread! I’ve made it *so* many times for me, J, and friends & family. It’s moist, decadent, and super easy to make! It also makes for a great DIY housewarming gift.
