Well, it's begun: we have started looking for a place to host the wedding. This past weekend, my mom, sister and Fiance Kaboom piled into a car, and headed out to visit the first place on the potential list: and I think we found a winner! Me and FK totally love it - and though I am not gonna go into detail yet, I will give you one fact: it's a CASTLE. A freaking CASTLE. How does anything compete with that?


Monday, 10/6:Cami: H&M, Sweater: Joyce Leslie, Skirt: Jonathan Saunders for Target, Knit Tights: Sockdreams.com, Moccassins: Minnetonka, Earrings: Jami Rodriguez

Still, my mom is insisting we go take a look at another place not too far from us, but honestly, I think we've found the place. And really, my goal is to have the most stress-free wedding ever invented. If we pick the first place we look at, I consider ourselves incredibly lucky. So we'll see.

On the way home, we stopped at Peddler's Village, which is this great little artists' community not too far from where we looked. We found this amazing leather shop, that was selling all sorts of leather goods at basement prices. Me and Linda both got ourselves some moccasin boots, and I also got myself a $10 leather belt, and this sweet, cheap little black fedora. It is my new favorite accessory, and have been wearing it everywhere.


Tuesday, 10/7:Top: Thrifted, Scarf as Belt: Thrifted, Cardigan: Love Yaya, Dress worn as skirt: Joyce Leslie, Cuff: James the Leather Man, Watch: Bulova, Necklace: Handmade Wooden Pendant from Kyoto, Japan, Boots: Minnetonka from Leather Shop in PA

I also had some online purchases come in this week, that I am head-over-heels for. These Siwy Jeans are going to be my new BFF. The dying process has rendered them almost completely white, creating this pebbly, divine "cloud" effect in the denim. I am a total klutz, and as a general rule I do not wear white pants, but for these beauts I will make a grudging exception.


Wednesday, 10/8:Hat: Leather Shop in Pennsylvania
Shirt: Boutique in Harajuku, Japan, Cardigan: Thrifted, Jeans: Siwy (New!), Boots: eBay, Watch: Bulova, Necklace: Hiroshima Jewelry Store, Japan

I also got this brilliant wolf tee from the etsy vendor, 1Aeon. I have been admiring 1Aeon's apparel for well over a year now, so I am pretty stoked to finally own one for myself. I am a little worried the shirt is too big though - I like my tops loose, but sometimes I worry I end up looking like a bag-lady.


Thursday, 10/9:Top: 1Aeon on Etsy, Skirt: Gift from Mom, Belt: Leather Shop in Pennsylvania, Boots: Seychelles, Watch: Bulova, Cuff: James the Leather Man, Necklace: Ragtrader on Etsy

This is the first weekend in as long as I can remember that I have no plans. I am completely ecstatic. If you need me, I will be in my pajamas, puttering and eating Oreos. And it will be DIVINE.
