Comments (5)We got between 1.5 and 2 inches of very welcome rain, enough that there was lots of standing water in the low-lying areas. When I got home from work the neighbor's generator was running so I knew the power had been out, but it was back on by then. I'll have to delay the rest of the garden planting another couple of days while it dries out again, but I don't mind at all! Miraje, I'm glad your sister is ok. I have a very healthy fear of lightning. One of the scariest experiences I ever had was getting caught in a lightning storm while hiking in Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. We were up pretty high when it came on suddenly, and there was nowhere to go for shelter. Suzie...See MoreWedding Wear Updates
Comments (22)Maire_cate, I love L&T! My favorite place to shop for special occasion dresses, but there is no location near me. There is one in my hometown. No weddings this summer, but I needed a dress for an awards ceremony at my conference (I became recognized as a Fellow in my professional organization) and dinner. I went to the largest location of local dept store since they have a giant special occasion dress section figuring *something* had to work. I found this Ann Klein dress that is very figure flattering--though I normally have trouble with sheath styles, and I am not at the size I would like to be. I did not feel either overdressed or under-dressed. Plus, It is a knit. Then I went upstairs and tried on some shapewear with it. I felt as good as I could. It was the first dress I tried on out of a whole bunch. Many of the Anne Klein dresses were very flattering. I have a similar-looking vintage cocktail handbag from my mom, and I forgot to pack it. Here is a link that might be useful: Anne Klein dress...See MoreWedding Storybook Album Update 2-14
Comments (1)Thanks....See MoreWedding update...
Comments (13)My original inclination is to leave it bare, but I also agree with blfenton....bc that's what I ultimately ended up doing myself! I had planned to leave my neck bare, like most wedding dresses I felt mine made enough statement on its own. So I had my portrait done without anything at my neck (in the Sourh we do the bride's portrait early so it is ready for the newspaper and some display it at the reception.) it looked perfect. Then my DH gave me the most exquisite strand of pearls at the rehearsal dinner. And of course I wore them and of course they looked perfect! :) Whatever you decide will be lovely. Your dress is stunning....See Morejojoco
