My Bridal Shower

Amid all the uncertainty, I’m excited to share a happy memory from this time period—my Bridal Shower! I was supposed to have another one but it sadly was canceled do to COVID-19. I’m very grateful we were able to squeeze one in! 

My shower was simple and gorgeous and I’m so grateful for everyone who was able to make it! 

My dress is Gal Meets Glam and it was completely perfect. If you have a Fall or Winter wedding events, I can’t recommend it enough! It just goes to show what a well made, well fitting piece of clothing can do. 

My shoes are the Katie & Kelly Misha Pump. I found them at DSW (!!!) after being obsessed with Meghan Markle’s navy pumps from one of her last engagements are a senior royal. I can’t wait until I can wear them out on a date night when the world reopens! They are so comfortable and come in so many colors—plus they are such good quality for their price!

My earrings are Sugarfix x Bauble Bar and my new favorite accessory. I wore my hair in a pony with a cream ribbon just to feature them more! They reminded me of Kendra Scott pieces but obviously a fraction of the price.

No matter what happens, I am so glad to have this beautiful memory with amazing women! 

It was the perfect opportunity to feature Recipe For a Perfect Wife (thank you, Dutton Books!) as well! Synopsis: “After reluctantly leaving New York City for the suburbs, newlywed Alice struggles with shifting roles at home and achieving domestic bliss in a new fixer-upper. When she discovers a vintage cookbook in her basement, the allure of cooking up Baked Alaska and Chicken à la King soon leads her into the darker story of the woman who previously owned the house, unfolding in notes tucked into the book. As Alice discovers striking parallels between this woman’s life and her own, she is finally forced to focus on the trajectory of her own life, questioning the foundation of her marriage and what it means to be a wife fighting for her place in a patriarchal society.

This mesmerizing dual narrative of a modern-day woman and a quintessential 1950s housewife is at once witty and charming and dark and sinister—much like its focus characters. With great care and gravity, this book offers a satisfying look at the lies we tell to feed the secrets we keep.”
