My 4th of July at the White House!

I was happy to have the opportunity to volunteer at the White House this 4th of July. The day catered to Military and their family, as well as the White House Staff. Great BBQ, fun games, high-energy concert (you have to scroll down to see who) and of course the finale: Fireworks!

Met some great White House interns who were very patriotic in their attire.

This made everything official!

The view from the lawn. 

Mr. 305 himself! Everyone had a great time singing along to all of Pitbull's hits. I would definitely go see him in concert.

Great end to an exciting day. I can now say that I watched fireworks from the White House lawn.

Fuchsia and Blue Inspiration

Summer wedding mean lots of color! Here is an inspiration board that is bright, fun and whimsical.

"I Do" Spotlight Elie Saab

I love Elie Saab's bridal collections. She epitomizes the sweet, romantic bride that is very fashion forward. Below is her 2013-2014 Couture collection, not her bridal collection, but some of her pieces are perfect for the winter bride. I love the winter fantasy looks that have the right bit of sparkle for the holiday season and is still appropriate for any engagement afterwards. I can picture a brave bride wearing these looks, who wants something unique for her winter wonderland.

My favorite!

These are just my other favorite long pieces from the collection:

I love the illusion neckline on this look

The neckline is a perfect amount of sexy for this look

Emerald was the color of 2013
