How I Wore It :: Post-Wedding Brunch

One of my very favorite dresses EVER is the one I wore to our post-wedding brunch. We got married in Santa Barbara and organized a little brunch together with our guests on Sunday morning following our ceremony before Biz and I departed for our honeymoon. It was absolutely wonderful and we really enjoyed being able to say proper goodbyes to everyone and thank them for coming, rather than having to do a quick wave as we ran through a shower of rice! Every time I look at it's blue and white stripes not only am I reminded of our wedding, but images of lovely picnics I dream of having are also conjured up in my head... sitting beneath a big oak tree with nothing to do but watch my children laugh. Whenever that happens I assure you, I will be wearing this dress! Oh and p.s.....it has POCKETS. 

Dress - Ralph Lauren :: Earrings - ?? All I remember is that they were $2 :: Necklace - Bali street market :: Sandals - Ralph Lauren :: Sunglasses - Oliver Peoples

Same sandals I wore to the brunch as well. They just work perfectly with this dress!

Above are some snapshots of me wearing it at the brunch and right after we arrived at our honeymoon destination! Little story to go along with me pretending to be in the circus and riding that seal {which is right in front of the lobby entrance...at the Four Seasons...} I kid you not, right as that photo was being taken by my very lucky new husband with the super grown-up wife, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden strolled by with their new little baby girl Harlow and I could tell on their faces they decided in that exact moment I was officially the coolest person they had ever seen. Nic was all woah I want to ride a seal and I was all psh don't even bother you don't have the moves.
