A Dress For My Next Shower

The other day I decided to go shopping to treat myself for my weight loss and the success of my Etsy shop since opening up.  The plan was to buy a bunch of cute tops for the summer, maybe a couple pairs of shorts, cute shoes...you get the idea.
Well I ended up spending almost more time shopping for Mr. T and really enjoyed it! But along the way, I ran into a little corner of Kohl's that sort of surprised me.  Apparently Lauren "LC" Conrad has her own clothing line at Kohl's.  You don't want to get me started on her (what is she famous for anyways?) but this time I can't complain.
I found an absolutely adorable dress that I just HAD to buy!  I was planning on just wearing the same cute white dress from my MN shower to the one I have coming up this weekend, but after seeing this dress, all bets were off.

It was marked at $60 and I decided I was going to buy it even though it was a little pricey and totally unnecessary.  Then I looked at the rack when I came out of the dressing room and saw that it was 45% off dropping it down to $35.  And I had a 15% coupon on top of that, so it worked out wonderfully!

I took it home and attempted to take some pictures of it.  Sorry they're kind of crappy, but Mr. T is always at work so I couldn't have him do it.  (And I can't find it online anywhere to show you!)

I love it! It's all sequin-y and gorgeous!

Oh and p.s. my cousin had her baby on Saturday...on her own birthday!! What an awesome birthday present.  My parents were planning on going camping over the weekend but about an hour into the trip my dad got sick so they turned around.  Once they got back to the house my mom left for IN and made it to the hospital a couple of hours before she gave birth.  So here she is with Brady Thomas.

Any Reason to Wear White

I plan on taking full advantage of the fact that I'm the bride and get to wear white during my engagement.  I'm not saying everyday I'm going to wear white and go around saying I'm the bride-to-be...that would just be tacky.
No, I'm talking about bridal showers, bachelorette parties, and the rehearsal dinner.  The bridal showers and bachelorette party will probably be sometime in the early spring, and the rehearsal dinner is towards the end of May so hopefully I can get away with some cute dresses.

So now I'm on the hunt for a different kind of white dress.  There are only two conditions: it can't be long, and it can't cost a fortune.  Here are some things I've come up with so far, let me know if you know of any others!
