Mrs. Bee, Mrs. Apple Cider, Mrs. Onion, Mrs. Canary, readers Serena and Alex and I had the honor of attending the Martha Stewart Weddings 15th anniversary party at The Plaza Hotel this week. The event was set up to mimic a lavish wedding, hosted by the beautiful Darcy Miller. Highlights included a candy buffet by Amy Atlas, a photobooth, catering by Morimoto, 3 live bands,…

We were incredibly excited to attend the Monique Lhuillier show! It was held at the Eyebeam Atelier, and it had a double runway setup, which was nice because it maximized visibility for the attendants. Mrs. Bee and I scored great seats right up front with Anne-Marie from Perfect Bound and Kelly from Santa Barbara Chic. Anne-Marie was in the first seat, so she got the…

I was at a wedding last weekend and mentioned to a friend that I’d be heading to New York for Bridal Market, and an old friend told me to look out for Hey Lady shoes by his good friends Jessica and Emily Leung. I asked how I would recognize them, just in case I forgot the company name, and he said, “Trust me, you’ll know…

I’m on a plane back to California right now (yay for in-flight WiFi), and can’t wait to keep blogging highlights from Bridal Market!

Ines Di Santo’s spring 2010 line was inspired by diamonds, and there was no shortage of sparkle at the show! Nothing fell flat—every gown was 3 dimensional and interesting from every angle!

Walking into the Haute Bride suite at Bridal Market, I felt like I could close my eyes and throw a dart at any three necklaces/bracelets/earrings, and be beyond happy to wear them all together. It was definitely hard to decide which pieces to take pics of to post, so I took a LOT of pictures, and I hope you enjoy them! I love that they’re…

We had great vantage points for me to snap some pics at the bigger shows at Bridal Market this weekend, so while we gather our pro pics, I thought I’d blog about a show that I was able to catch on my own camera! Kirstie Kelly for Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings was last night, and appropriately for Disney… the kids stole the show! Kirstie showcased…

Mrs. Bee is due very soon, but she’s been a trooper all weekend running around town with me catching some amazing shows! We’ll spend all this week sharing our favorite sights and sounds around town, but for now here’s a glimpse of the action!

Every Monique Lhuillier dress was a stunner! Baby Sophia Lhuillier is due in 5 weeks so Monique was unable to attend...

Happy Columbus Day hive! In honor of the holiday, posting will be light. Enjoy your 3 day weekend (if you’re fortunate enough to have one)!

Happy fall, y’all!

I’m thrilled to welcome so many dynamic new bees into the hive! Meet Miss Rainbow, coming to us from sunny Florida. Join me in giving her a colorful welcome!

Hi Hive! You’ll notice our newest Relationship Series is posted under the Beehive icon. We feel like this isn’t the most appropriate icon for when we run series like these, but we don’t have an icon for any of our series like A Bee’s Life or our recent Budget Series. So, we need your help with brainstorming! What should our feature icon look like?

When I…

A Roomba sale came up on Gilt Groupe while I was in New York, and admittedly, while I was in the shopping mecca of the country… I did some online shopping. I actually found a better deal on the Roomba on HSN, so I headed over there to buy my own robotic maid.

The Roomba is pretty neat. You can program it to run up to…

Our newest bee comes to us from the Midwest! I’m excited to announce my fave junk food, Miss French Fries! Join me in welcoming her into the hive.

Well, I threw my first bridal shower and lived to tell the tale. Special thanks to my co-host/slave Emily, who once again suffered through a Japanese food dinner (the bride and I are obsessed with Japanese food, Emily is not), and hamburger grease stains to make the shower happen!

When the first guests showed up (on time), I was still in my pajamas. Oops. This particular…
