I am SO doing this!

This marries two of my greatest passions - illustrating and weddings! And what a fantastic keepsake!


At Dreamlines, you can have a custom sketch of your wedding gown made for, what I consider, a fairly affordable price. The French artist, Penelope-Anne Altmann, creates an illustration from a photograph of the dress. If you would prefer something even more personal, albeit pricier, you should check out All About the Dress, where Jennifer Angilello will create a custom illustration of the bride in the gown.

Seafoam Dream

I could hardly sleep last night because I was desperately hoping for a snow day today. We're in the midst of our first major snowstorm of the year in NY but I guess that doesn't happen if your over 18 and not a teacher...

I found myself needing a little bit of spring dreaming to get through today and I remembered this gorgeous Armani Prive gown that Camilla Belle wore to the Met's Costume Institute Gala last May. Isn't it absolutely breathtaking?
