Kathryn Newton in Valentino
I know it’s a little bit early to be saying this, but this might be my favorite red carpet set in a very long time. We are loving the color, the beautiful black gowns, and the off-the-shoulder looks. It was hard to narrow down my favorites and even as I’m thinking about it, I don’t know if I even can. We still have the upcoming Grammy’s and the Oscars, but this has set the bar high!

We’ve been neglecting Yow Yow! lately for work and planning our upcoming travels. These days, the only time I can squeeze time in is on the weekends, but we try to make them count. I completely missed every collection of Bridal Week, but I’ve managed to pull out some of my favorite looks for all of you. This year’s wedding season is surprisingly quite light, but you know what that means? Next year will be a full schedule and I’m almost sure of it. While we’ve only got one more wedding this year, I’m so excited to see what she chooses for her gown. Up ahead? The challenging part of me narrowing favorite looks.

Every year, holiday party season always comes up so fast! I’m excited this year to have a true holiday party with my current company and the opportunity to dress up. As soon as I discovered the date, I was off to the races. There are actually so many options this holiday season that I’m swooning over, but the trouble with every year is that I have in my mind what I already want. The hard part of that is that it often times is hard to find where that exists. Since I hold onto that dream of a dress for so long, I often don’t find it and find myself stressing last minute.
This year’s party will be on a Friday – a first for me! It’s also unfortunately the first year where Mandi and I won’t be getting ready together. I’ll be using my new favorite startup Glamsquad for hair and makeup though which I can’t say enough good things about. Lastly, I’ve got a couple of ideas in mind for what I want to wear, but I’m not quite ready to share that yet. What I do know is that I want to stay away from lace if I can and sleeves because we did that last year. If things don’t work out for me, at least I’ve got a post to fall back on.
To get into the spirit of creating this post, I just looked at last years post and am surprised at how much my tastes have changed in the last year. Since my party is earlier, I wanted to start this post early.We’re also going to release it earlier than any other year prior. Enjoy!

Not too long ago, I think I was “wedding shamed” by two of my friends when I told them that I wanted to forgo the bouquet and garter toss at my future wedding. Yes, I realize that these are traditional parts of a wedding, but I haven’t always been that traditional, myself. For some reason the thought of throwing my bouquet or having my future husband throw my garter out to a crowd doesn’t get me excited. I’m sure that if I were a guest attending a wedding, I would be all for that. I’d probably be the first girl to wrestle the bouquet out of someone’s hands. That sort of makes me a hypocrite. The point of this post though is that I have a huge swoon spot for people who do weddings a little bit differently. I like a venue that no one has ever used as a venue. I want to see seating cards not on paper. And I have no problem with a dress that isn’t necessarily white. This, of course, brings us to fall bridal week! Now we all know that fashion shows can be a little bit outrageous and while some collections aren’t wearable, I am definitely seeing some gowns in this bunch rounded up by Fashionista that would make for the perfect wedding.
