Wedding Wednesday

I saw this wedding earlier this week on my favorite wedding blog Style Me Pretty and became totally and completely inspired. I am obsessed with polka dots. And black and white is my favorite color combination of all time. There is black and white in my room back in Georgia, the background of my phone and my computer is black and white polka dots, I have black and white polka dot pants…you get the point. This wedding had both elements in its theme and I pretty much flipped out when I saw the groom with a black and white polka dot tie and the flower girl wearing a black and white polka dot dress. I’m usually not a fan of black in weddings (aside from the suits) because sometimes it can read too dark. Even the solid black dresses of that wedding were a little too much for me. But, I think by staying mostly white with the major details and adding black in the smaller details it comes out to be light, happy, elegant, and classy! I think because of my love for polka dots and black and white I would have the most fun planning a wedding with this theme. SO, if you want to have a black and white polka dot wedding theme….pick me to help you plan it, pretty please! I’m basically on my hands and knees begging right now. That’s how much I love this theme. Any takers??? Not yet? Okay, well in the mean time I will just play around with the idea virtually…

Our Summer ’14 Top Picks for Milly & Grace

Like I said in my style report, Summer 14 is going look very fresh!  Pretty soft colors, lots of denim, white dresses, crochet, crop tops and rompers.  Check out some of my favorite looks that will hit Milly & Grace in June.

Joie #nailedit as usual.  Their summer collection was very island (yay for us!), feminine, light and flowy.  As always, they make their pieces very low maintenance, wearable and comfortable!  I admit that I don’t own a romper yet!  (Like I’ve said before, I’m a fashion prude!  Caroline calls me plain Jane.)   This might have to be my first one:

Joie This top is going to look great with cut off jean shorts for summer and then with dark denim and cowboy boots in the fall.  Joie1pickSoft Joie is actually the first line that we ever wrote for Milly & Grace!  Soft takes tried and true styles and bodies from Joie and uses more everyday fabrics – cottons vs. silks.  Can’t you just see this cute tank going to brunch at Black Eyed Susans this summer??softjoiepickI can’t get enough of Rebecca Taylor.  When I wear it, I just feel so put together.  Her collection for summer was the true Rebecca that I know and love: soft colors, feminine bodies and just the right amount of embellishments.  Here is line up of all of our picks for Summer 14! Rebecca Taylor pickMy favorite looks from RT are usually dresses but this time around it was her tops that caught my eye.  We are seeing A LOT of batik prints for summer.  How sweet is this pretty batik print tank?!  And I LOVE this crop sweatshirt with the metallic threading detail.  This is how I’m going to fill the crop trend this summer.rebecca taylor

We can always count on Splendid to make cute everyday pieces at a great bang for your buck price.  If  you are a bit nervous about trying out a new trend – like a pop of chartreuse – look to Splendid to fill that need.splendidpick

We are SO excited to be carrying Free People next season!  Boho Chic is where it is at with Free People and we’re absolutely smitten with this top!freepeopleDuring the last few hours of the last day of the show, we got really lucky and stumbled upon a booth waayy in the back corner called Miss June.  A husband and wife team from France were showing their line for the first time in the United States!  They make the most beautiful pieces that are perfect for summertime in Nantucket!  It was a perfect fit for us.  These are only 2 of many pieces that we bought from them.  This is a MUST SEE when you stop by Milly & Grace this summer! Miss JuneOk.  Hurry up Summer!!  I can’t wait to wear your cute clothes!

Same Page Monday – Golden Globes Edition

1. Caroline sent me this GIF in regards to how she was feeling the whole time she was looking through the Red Carpet arrivals from the Golden Globes.  There weren’t as many stunning looks as we were hoping for!

2.  “B*tch stole my prom look!”

3.  B*tch kinda stole my homecoming look (from 2003)! – Obviously, I was so very busy and important on my cell phone.

4.  Do we really need any more reasons to love JLaw any more!?! She is my favorite person. Best Red Carpet moment was when she playfully tells TSwift that she thought it would be funny if she came in and pushed her down the stairs.

5.  Did anyone else notice that Tina and Amy wore the same but opposite color dresses during their opening monologue as last year??

6.  Tina and Amy were so funny!  There were a few jokes that made me actually laugh out loud.  The one about how George Clooney would rather drift off into space than to spend time with a women his own age!  And how Tina introduced Leo when he was presenting… I can’t repeat it.  Remember we try to stay classy here at Milly & Grace Girls.  The best part was when they cut to Martin Scorsese’s reactions… He was cracking up!!  These Golden Globes had the highest ratings in 10 years!  The girls did an awesome job. I can’t wait till next year!

This is for Caroline who didn’t get to watch it… A recap of some of the funniest moments from the night!
