hi there… i didn't blog yesterday and it felt really really weird. so today i'm popping in to say hello and tell you a cute story. last night Jeremy had a dream that there was a pink bunny in our house and he got to hold it. I've never seen a pink bunny before so I was very jealous.
Life Updates (at random)… I'm kinda flipping out that our wedding is only about a month away (5 weeks or so…). It's all happening so fast! Mallory picked up a bunch of fabric swatches for me so I can't wait to see them. We have five summer interns scheduled to work on our Fall line… they're all adorable! My wedding shower is this weekend. I can't wait to see all the treats Emma is making. Mr. Larson and I are watching Audrey Hepburn movies and trying to choose the most colorful one for a special wedding project. OH… and I have tons of new shoes (it's fun!) so new outfit posts are coming soon. LOVES!β₯ I'm off to do a photo shoot with my high school idol, Miss Angie. She said I could style her like a pop star…
ps. i acquired this sorta amazing vintage jumper this week. crazy pretty or crazy crazy? I love the neckline.

normally I’d say crazy crazy BUT I have a feeling you could pull it off and make it look super cute π
Have a nice time on your shower. And enjoy the organizing the last details for your wedding.
Have a nice weekend π
that jumper is so summery-fresh! π it would look super cute with a tan and some wedges.
Miss Angie like 100 Million Eyeballs!! haha CRAZY!! That’s so awesome!! She was one of the first singers I listened to that my parents didn’t like haha.
cute smile π
I know what you mean. I’ve started blogging daily and it feels so weird if I skip a day now.
Oh, and that jumper? Crazy cute!! :]
crazy beautiful!! love, love!
That jumper is crazy lovely!
love the jumper, it is so retro! your life sounds fab!

Is that what we used to call a tent dress back in the late 60’s? I had a couple in junior high……they were quite stylish back in the day.
It’s so exciting that your wedding is so soon!

Very cute jumper I’d say! So fun and colorful! π
Definitely crazy pretty. I love the jumper.
i wish i could post daily! man, that takes a lot of effort and time. totally applaud you for that, but sometimes a break is really refreshing!
love that first picture of you. adorableeee.
the dress is definitely pretty crazy (the good kind), haha.
yeah, wedding stuff can be hectic. we still have a bit to do…some of it pretty important, haha. but we have until june 25th so i think we’ll be in good shape. sometimes i feel like we’re just pretending we’re going to get married. like we’re just “fake” planning, haha. is that weird?
Crazy pretty. I love that print – it’s amazing.
Have a wonderful hen do/ bridal shower x
Crazy crazy, but that gives you all the more incentive to wear it. π
And I understand completely about the oddity of not blogging. It feels like life is incomplete until something has been wafted to the internet cloud.
But thanks for dropping by to say hi! I like the pink bunny.
I’d say crazy awesome! That looks so cool, and you’re such a busy bee! Sounds like fun though π
I love your big smile! You look beautiful and incredibly happy. Enjoy this memorable weekend, I hope you post some photos! π
Definitely check out Funny Face! Not only does it have the amazing Audrey Hepburn but also the oh-so-talented Fred Astaire! I love this movie.
Prettttty! This is my favorite vintage piece that I’ve ever seen on your blog pretty! Have an amazing time with all your prenuptial events. You are a lovely person and deserve to have the most magical time ever. Hearts, Janna Lynn
Yep, that jumper is definitely the most amzing item of clothing I’ve ever seen. I need it! Eee!
I’m a huge fan of Funny Face for Audrey Hepburn, so add this to the previous suggestions for it. Gorgeous clothes and a fun movie.
The jumper is all in the way you style it. it can be either crazy pretty or crazy crazy. I sorta adore it! I would tone it down a bit with your shoes, hair, accessories. Don’t try to make everything els be crazy to match it. If your hair, shoes, accessories, maybe a cardigan are tone down or are more simple then it would look adorable! Can’t wait to see it on.
I find the movie Funny Face filled with color…besides S’Marvelous is just a delightful song!
Your wedding shower! SOOO exciting! Have fun π
i love that jumper. please sell it on etsy when you are finished with it. thanks! & i’m barely joking. xx
Crazy awesome! So pretty!
You are soooooo beutiful! π <3
That jumper is so incredible! I can’t wait to see how you rock it!!

I also missed your post yesterday, but it’s nice you had a break. Bunnies are my favorite, and I would <3 to pet a pink one. Too cute! Have a fantastic shower! π
Oh my gosh, like THE Miss Angie? No way! I loooove her! I still listen to her albums all the time. How awesome.
crazy pretty for sure!!

Crazy pretty. Although it could definitely slip over to crazy crazy if you didn’t team it up with the right accessories!
Oooh Audrey Hepburn films π I’m excited to see this project! It’s hard to choose a favorite of hers, but I really love “Roman Holiday” and “How to Steal a Million.” They’re both excellent!
The jumper is crazy crazy, but I know you can totally pull it off!
You’re so funny Elsie! 100% meant positively
Missed you yesterday. You know you’re addicted to a blog when… I went over to Le Wedding Party to see if you had posted there just to make sure you were ok! (thankfully, you had) π Glad for your sake you got a day off from blogging though. Your last post on being a workaholic was really great and inspiring– I’m planning to link to it in a link round-up at my blog this weekend.
Can’t wait to see pics of your shower, have so much fun!
i want to see a pink bunny too! xo
Definitely crazy pretty! I wish I could pull off bold prints like that but they just look silly on me! Hope your shower is just lovely π
Wow! miss angie! I hope thats who I think it is! Ive been listening to her since day one. I was listening To Her Song “Salvation” on youtube and I was shocked to see None Other Than your mr larson playing acoustic! Small world!
PARIS WHEN IT SIZZLES!
i have a pink bunny tattoo. maybe that’s a sign we will meet! π
Loveee the jumper! I had a similar dream once, though it involved holding a normal colored river otter.
i’m going to congratulate you ahead of time for your wedding. i’m so excited for you!

Supercute and lovely colours!
That dress is so cute!
i know that you asked for favourite audrey hepburn movies on twitter and my favourite is definitely ‘how to steal a million’, it’s simply adorable and she wears crazy pretty outfits π
smiles with teeth! you look really cute π
I love Miss Angie, I used to stick stars on my cheek just like her, and people would always ask me about it (because it probably looked either cool, or ridiculous)
Hi Elsie,
Since you love all things vintage and esp. photography and art, I thought you might want to know about my vintage summer vacation contest:
http://katepaintsandillustrates.blogspot.com/2011/04/my-summer-vacation-contest.html
I paint memories…Please share the love!
Funny Face is my favorite Audrey movie. π
You’re so adorable. π I love this dress too.

the jumper’s to die for.
Funny Face and Paris When It Sizzles are pretty great.
Absolutely love the Jumper!!! I so need something like it!
oh that’s a cute jumper π
I wasn’t sure how to contact you but, I just wanted to say a quick Thank You. Your blog has been a great source of inspiration for me over the past few months. I’m in my final year studying Fashion Design at Uni, and I fear I may have fallen out of love with the industry. But reading your blog has rekindled some kind of fire inside me, and inspired me to do things on my own terms.
I’m currently thinking up names for my company/shop and have already got a notebook full of ideas, which I keep next to my bed. I’m already planning to purchase your e-course on blogging, am awaiting the arrival of an industry grade mannequin,(so I can cut all my patterns), and have got ideas of fabrics floating around in my head constantly.
Thankyou. Your blog has pulled me out of one massive creative rut.
Lots of Love,
Hannah. (Kent, United Kingdom).

crazy pretty!! for sure
That jumper is definitely crazy pretty! Although I think I’m a little lost in translation… In Australia a jumper is what I think Americans would call a sweater, but the jumper you are holding is certainly not a sweater! What is the American definition of a jumper? I’m feeling confused and a tad silly!
Those dinosaur planters are AMAZING! I’m definitely checking them out! Also, chocolate filled raspberries are to die for! Yum!
Audrey Hepburn is my absolute favourite!! May I suggest “Funny Face” for the wedding project? It has one of the most charming wedding scenes in movie land, and it’s pretty much in technicolour. There’s also a whole scene in pink.
Very good I will recommended to more friends
This article is very interesting, I like it. I will always come to visit after.I would recommend to friends more.
Ahhh Audrey Hepburn movies are the best – you should see Charade if you havent! π Hope you’re having a great week!
Keep smiling!
These are all very beautiful, I like very much
What happened to the photo shoot with Miss angie?!!! hehe
