I am Style-ish: What to wear, what to wear

What to wear, what to wear

I've been on a shopping rampage lately because in 2 weeks we are going to be taking engagement pictures with our fabulous photographer, Punam Bean. I am SO excited. BUT I need an outfit and I can not find one that I am loving. We hit every single department store and boutique in downtown Seattle this weekend and I walked away with nothing. Ugh, it's always like that, when you actually want to find something, you can't find it. But when you aren't looking, it'll be there. Anyway, I've got a ton of stuff on it's way to me, as I went crazy buying whatever looked cute online, so cross your fingers that at least something will work out.

I was a bit sad this weekend after not buying anything so I went on polyvore created two of my dream "if money were no object" outfits to wear with the my two new shoe obsessions, . Haha, I'm such a loser, but J gets a kick out of seeing me so happy putting these fake outfits together!

Aren't they adorable? Not for engagement pictures, but a fun night on the town, definitely! Anyone else on polyvore? Add me so I can see your sets too! :)

I love the shoes. I am a bit of a shoe nut myself. Please visit my blog, broomjumpingbride.blogspot.com.

Hi Nat!

Engagement photos are basically just pictures that you take before the wedding to get to know your photographer (well at least that is why we are taking ours) A lot of couples use their engagement photos on their save the dates or to create a guest book for the wedding.

Here's a link to an engagement shoot my photographer just did.

Hope that helps! :)
