Hi everyone! Happy, happy Pink & Green Thursday!
As you're reading this, I am en route to Northern Michigan for one of my dear friends' bayside wedding! This is my first time in the area, and we're excited to be making a long weekend out of the trip. We'll be spending some sailing time in the Little Traverse Bay area, and the sweet couple is also hosting a fun day of boating and BBQ at their personal vacation cottage the day after the wedding!
(Kindness and special thanks to AEOT at Up North Preppy for the fabulous fun list of things to do while we're in town! Sorry we'll miss you this visit! xx Are any of you familiar with the area too?)
A great big welcome to the new followers this week, and sincere thanks again to all, especially the friends that play along each week; it means so much to me. Thank you SO MUCH for spreading the pink and green love!

In honor of the bride-to-be and her favorite color, I'm going to change up this week's Pink & Green Thursday post just a bit. One of my favorite things about colors, is that there are the many shades and varieties. I often find that pink and purple complement each other so nicely, so this week, as a toast to my dear friend, I'm going to incorporate some purple into the Pink & Green fun!
To Jules, wishing you a lovely wedding weekend, we can't wait to celebrate with you!
Looking forward to a weekend with great friends, lots of sunshine...
An outdoor town street fair, I'll be looking for pink and green (and a little purple too!) in the least expected places...
Of course, we'll be getting our party on!
Plenty of sunset boat cruises...Jules loves her boat, it's her baby!
Hours of sitting outside telling old stories by candlelight, late into the night...
Perhaps some ice cream, or gelato...
Or a cupcake or two, why not!
Although Jules is a NYC girl now, she can't wait to get back home to Michigan; this magical day has been a long time in the planning...
...all the hard work has paid off and now it's time to celebrate!
When Jules and I were suitemates in college, I was majoring in Fashion, so she got very used to seeing me cutting patterns and sewing, or with my nose in fashion books and magazines...
Every now and then she'd let me take her shopping and dress her up!
And like most girlfriends, we always let each other raid the other's closet during fashion emergencies!
We shared a flat in London while I was at the London College of Fashion, and she attended the University of Westminster for Journalism. A cozy top floor, two-story flat in Maida Vale, remember those stairs Jules?
Although I did most of the cooking, Jules always brought home flowers for our apartment!
My question is...whether or not this beautiful bride will be wearing purple heels?
Somehow I wouldn't be surprised!
A beautiful bubbles send off for the bride and groom as they leave their reception....
Cheers to a lifetime of love, laughter, and happily ever after...We love you both!
