one easy rule of thumb to follow is: if it's a fabric you'd wear to work, you can't wear it to a fancy wedding. this means no cotton, jersey, wool, tweed, etc. wear a dressy fabric like silk or satin (or something that looks like silk or satin). unless it's explicitly specified as a black-tie wedding, i personally wouldn't…

i'm 5'8" too and you can ALWAYS find me in heels - at least 3 inches, please, but preferably 4 or 5 (: that's just my personal style. the thing that matters most (in my experience) is confidence. if you look awkward or self-conscious, don't wear 'em. that's not attractive regardless of your height. but if you can pull them…

those are great! :) here are some more, found scattered over tumblr... - "if you keep on saying tomorrow, you'll run out of time." - "if you give up today, think of how much regret you'll have 3 months from now, when you could have been 10+ pounds lighter." - "you've come way too far and tried way too hard to take orders…

this just happened to me a couple of weeks ago! someone on the bus told me their wife was due soon and asked how far along i was. it took a couple of moments for my brain to put everything together, but when it did... so awkward! i actually ended up telling him i was 4 months pregnant because i was so ashamed :(
