Sister Friend Thursdays on a Friday

Big Sister is on the hunt for a dress. What bride isn't? I was actually lucky enough to tag along with Big Sister on one of her hunting expeditions a few weeks ago and had a lot of fun!

I wonder what she would think of this up and coming designer from Portland, Sarah Seven.  I'm seeing this girl's bridal dresses everywhere! There are definitely a few cute little numbers in her regular spring 2010 collection I'd like to see hanging in my closet and her bridal collection is gorgeous. These custom made dresses can be made in a colour to your taste, and as she says on her website - just ask! She uses natural fabrics, silk, wool, linens, cotton voile as well as recycled vintage fabrics AND she gives 5% of all her sales to charity!

Check out a few of her bridal gowns - they are so lovely!
Old New Borrowed Blue - $1,300 USD

White Wedding - $1,400 USD


Rosy Posy - $1,250 USD

What about these for bridesmaid gowns or even a fancy schmancy get together or event?


Butterscotch - $595 USD


Pretty Please - $505 USD


Midnight Stroll - $1,200 USD


Tulip - $475


Robins Egg - $385 USD



Until next time!!

Disney Inspired - Princess Jasmin

I loved Disney's Aladdin. It was more of a grown up kind of Disney movie - Robin Williams was brilliant as the voice of the Geenie - so funny.  The baddie (Jaffar) was super bad, Aladdin got the girl and of course that girl is Princess Jasmin. I also believe (and I could be wrong here) that Princess Jasmin was the first ethnic Princess in any kind of Disney animated film. 


So here's your Princess Jasmin Disney inspired wedding fun!

For reception ideas think intense jewel-tones, tents, rugs, lots of pillows...

Happy planning!

Disney Inspired - Sleeping Beauty

Here she is....Princess Aurora, otherwise known as Sleeping Beauty.  (What I'd like to know is why are princesses wearing pink or blue! Must be some prerequisite to princessing or something)


Here's some of the Sleeping Beauty Inspired Dresses by Disney
 But wait.....there's mooooooooooore! Disney has also started designing bridesmaid dresses to compliment the wedding dresses - here's a couple of my favorites although I'm not terribly sure about the brown colour but the dress is really cute. The black dress would make a lovely wedding dress if it were white, cream or even a really light yellow.

Tell me, what little girl wouldn't want to be a flower princess girl in this Sleeping Beauty inspired flower girls dress. CUTEST


Now....what would Sleeping Beauty's reception look like. Well, since we've already established that Princesses seem to go with pink or blue what if we threw a curve ball into that and went...wait for it....wait for it....GOLD. But if you reeeeeally wanted pink, here's your princess pink decor ideas as well.


S'all for now, kids! Sister friend's out!

While Little Sister's Away....

Sister Friend will PLAY!!!! Little Sister is away for a few weeks and will be blogging intermittently but instead of just posting on Thursdays - I'll be posting a bit more until she's back. SO - this is more for Little Sister (who loves all things Disney) than Big Sister but still fun. The powers that be at Disney have decided to branch out a bit further into the wonderful world of WEDDINGS....that's right, they now have an official wedding dress designer - all wedding dresses are inspired by the Disney Princesses (Well, OF COURSE). For the next little while, I will feature a princess a post. How does that sound?

We shall begin with one of my favorites, Cinderella. 

How about these Cinderella inspired dresses by Kristie Kelly for Disney?

What about these hot little numbers in place of a glass slipper?

 I LOVE the red shoes....in fact I want them right now.
