pressing matters

i had a post all ready for today about decorating the new lovenest and scores from over the weekend, but it came to my attention yesterday morning that there are more pressing issues of an international diplomacy nature that require my thoughts.

squeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a royal wedding!!!! i'm so excited! i'm a bit of an anglophile as it is {see: obsession with scones, hunting dogs, jane austen, tartan, cottages, and wellies} and this is just going to send me {and the rest of the world, it seems} into overdrive.  i've always been more of a prince harry girl myself {i think it's the whole ginger thing}, but i just adore kate middleton's style.  she's such a modern sloane ranger and i love that she dresses in a modest way that's still sexy and stylish {teenages and hollywood starlets take note: when you wear underwear and cover your naughty bits, you get proposals from princes.}  so below, a few favorites in honor of the new future princess!










and one from the engagement announcement at st. james's palace yesterday. LOVE that he proposed with diana's ring!


best wishes to the happy couple!

She's so darn pretty!!

I'm torn between being happy for them and being deliriously sad that my future husband is now officially off the market. I really don't need this kind of conflict in my life!

I'm a Harry girl too, but I'm for sure excited for this wedding! I LOVE that she has Diana's ring! I wonder is Harry is mad that his wife doesn't get it?! hmmm.....I bet he has one of her amazing rings too though!
She does have great style and that's a wonderful point about not showing your lady bits and still landing a prince!!! ;)

I feel like a nerd but I'm super excited for this wedding. I think Kate has great style and can't wait to see what/who she wears and I really wish these two all the best. Although I think giving her Diana's ring was a bit strange.
