Beautiful wedding in Madison, CT

This past weekend PRG and I went to SM and BG's wedding at the Madison Beach Club in Madison, CT and it was so much fun!  It was a Saturday full of unbelievable weather, beautiful flowers, thoughtful details, awesome music (a bagpiper and then a 9 piece band!), a stunning bride and a very happy groom.  Can't get better than that!

Here are some photos from their wedding, enjoy!

Talbots isn't just for my mom anymore...

I went into Talbots recently, one of my mother's longtime favorite clothing stores, to get her a drape cardigan because she always compliments me on my sweaters like this and I thought she deserved one too!  ....and I was shocked by how "hip" Talbots has become!  Since when have I walked into a Talbots and liked half the store for myself?  Never before!  I was pleasantly surprised by what I found.  So much so that I not only bought the drape cardigan for my mom but also a few things for myself (whoops)!

{here are the 2 striped items I bought for myself (obviously I won't be wearing them together!) as well as the sweater I bought for my mom}

And apparently I'm not the only one to take notice of their transformation.  I went to their site and found these:

• A video about Talbots' Tradition Transformation and
• Talbots Chief Creative Officer Michael Smaldone talking about Talbots' Ageless Woman Philosophy

PRG and I are heading to dinner at Bacco in the North End to help our friend MF "carbo load" before the 100 mile bike race she's doing tomorrow.  Mmmmm looking at their website is making me hungry.  Then, tomorrow, we're off to a wedding down in Madison, CT.  Can't wait to help celebrate with SM and BG! 

Happy weekend everyone!

Our Wedding Album Has Arrived!

It's hard to believe almost 8 months has already passed since PRG and I tied the knot!  We received our wedding album a couple of months ago and I've had a lot of fun looking through it and remembering how special and loved we both felt throughout our wedding weekend among all of our family and friends.  It was such a treat to have all our loved ones in one place!

So, in the spirit of our album's arrival, here are some photos that bring me back to our wedding day:
