Vintage Wedding Dress Code

My husband and I just got back from Michigan. We were attending one of my longtime friend's wedding. We have been friends since primary school back home in Zimbabwe. We attended the same high school. She was my tennis partner in doubles at high school. We lived in the same area back home. We have so many good memories together. Now she lives in Chicago and I'm in New York... years later and we are still friends. Even if we don't talk for months, whenever we talk it's like we were never apart. It is so important to build solid friendships. 

It was such a beautiful wedding and we had so much fun. She looked like a queen in her Nigerian garb and so beautiful in her wedding gown. My heart was so full to see her so happy and I was at peace to see how much her new husband loves her and loves God. What more could you ask for... 

This is what I wore to the wedding...

Ode to Flowerless Fields

Fallow ground, yellow withered grass

Naked trees

Snow white flakes, mixed with drops of rain

Why did the petals fall

Sky is blue, Clouds are grey

Where is the balance of green 

Splashes of purple, pink, and red

Waiting for fields of flowers

From one flower to another. There is a time and season for everything.

Black Texture

I fell in love with a vintage textured sweater and that is all...

I find that the key to wearing all black is to include or layer many different textures and fabrics. This helps to create contrast and interest. This sweater is so cosy and perfect for adding contrast to an otherwise simple outfit. 

And yes, it is still wintry so layering is still essential... I am ready for Spring.
