the Atlantan Fashionista Diaries

WHO IS THE ATLANTAN FASHIONISTA? THAT WOULD BE ME! I'M JUST YOUR AVERAGE SOUTH FLORIDA GIRL LIVING IN THE BIG CITY OF ATLANTA. I'M THE GIRL WHO LIVES AND BREATHES FOR EVERYTHING FASHION RELATED, AND I DREAM OF PERFECTING THE IDEAL WEDDING... BUT THEN AGAIN, WHAT GIRL DOESN'T?

Fashion Obsession: Casual Chic!  Mixing corporate business pieces with everyday basics, and pops of color makes a perfect outfit.  An outfit that can be worn to work, for play, or for partying.

TLC picked up the series My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding, a hit show in England covering the unique lives of British gypsies and Irish travellers.  Their ‘back-in-the-day” lifestyle, and over-the-top weddings were sure to make this show a hit even in the US.  What caught my attention was the ornate details, and HUGE princess wedding dresses.  Similar to this image, which is of the bride and bridesmaid (in hot pink), who were cousins.  If you’ve not seen the show, be sure to check your local listings to see when it airs next.  It’s a must watch!

Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.
