#103. SPH's Wedding!

Unfortunately, my perfect weekend is coming to an end. SPH's wedding was positively fabulous. She looked gorgeous and the friends, food, and atmosphere were a dream.

Camp girls at the rehearsal dinner.

THE dress!

How gorgeous are the shoes?!

My sister and I looked so glamorous I hardly recognized us in the mirror.

Her first entrance.


The bouquet!




What a positively perfect bride.

I'm so sad it's over.

#102. Jennifer Miller Jewelry

We are all wearing jewelry from Jennifer Miller for my best friend's wedding tomorrow. I am SO excited. Check out how gorgeous this stuff is!







#101. Tim Evan Cook Photography

I found yet another great photographer named Tim Evan Cook. His portfolio includes still life, travel, and ballet. The ballet shots are my favorite.

#100. Hybrids


#1 - This is my 100th Fabulous Thing! Yay!

#2 - Hybrids are pretty fantastic. I drive a Honda hybrid and it's the best. I never have to get gas and I have a special parking space at school. My sedan is very roomy and practical. Unlike my mother and sister who drive gas guzzling p.o.s. SUVs (just kidding, Mom!), I can fit my car comfortably in most parallel parking spaces and I'm helping the Earth.

Take that, Land Rover!

#3 - Check out this YouTube video, In My Prius.

Random, Weird News of the Day: Wuggies

Oh, Weezer. Y'all are so weird.

The band loves the Snuggie so much that they're coming out with their own line of ugly blankets called Wuggies. You think I'm kidding? See more here.

#99. Gone With the Wind Premiere

Click here to see the video of the Gone With the Wind premiere from 1939!

#98. The Smartest Farm

I read an article in Garden & Gun about a very green farm in Goochland (just west of Richmond). They decided to go green almost 30 years ago! Pretty cool. Check it out here.

Inspiration of the Day

This is an image from a spread in the March '08 Vogue Italia. I love the red-yellow housewife vibe.

#97. Jaydiohead

I found an interesting mash-up album from Minty Fresh Beats. It's a combination of Jay-Z and Radiohead and it's pretty awesome. For more info, click here.

#96. How Crayons Are Made



Here is the original Sesame Street video of how crayons are made. It was one of my favorites when I was younger!

#95. Eloise Can Swim!

As y'all know, I took Elle to the rivah with me this weekend for her first swimming experience. Though she was extremely hesitant and scared at first, my little Elle dog finally became a river rat!




#94. Your Fonts

YourFonts.com is a great site where you can create a font from your own handwriting! I'm in the process of creating my own as we speak. Once it's up and running, I'll update this post with an example.

#93. RunPee

I found a hilariously useful website called RunPee.com. I hate getting up to go to the bathroom during a movie. This website lets you know when you should get up and go! For example, I looked up the new film Ghost of Girlfriends Past on the site. I should take a break approximately thirty minutes into the movie when Matthew M. says "alll riighhht..." for the 10th time. I have five minutes to roam around before something interesting happens. Quite useful, don't you think?

#92. twobirds bridesmaid

On Saturday, I will be walking down the aisle in my best friend's wedding! We are wearing twobirds bridesmaid dresses. twobirds is a company that makes one fabulous dress with over ten ways to wear it. We are wearing windsor navy. With the dark color and tons of way to wear the dress, I am hopeful I can wear it again and again! Here are some examples:



#91. Needlepoint

I'm a big fan of needlepoint. I enjoy making belts and pillows in my free time. For those less crafty, there are several places to buy finished belts, dog collars, key fobs, and pillows. Smathers & Branson has a great collection. Here are a few of my favorites:



I recently discovered a great new company called Tucker Blair. I love their flip flops and headbands. Take a look at these:
