Ross and Whitney’s wedding (and OOTD)

I love the Spring and Summer seasons because it means wedding season. My friend Whitney and her husband Ross threw an official wedding ceremony and reception a few weekends ago for all of their family and friends. The only words I can use to describe the Whitney and the entire ceremony is beautiful. Since my friend, Elisa, was in the ceremony (and I rode with her to the wedding,) I was able to get a sneak peek at Whitney and her wedded bliss…

My friend Elisa looked amazing...

While we were waiting and making sure everything was going perfect for the ceremony, I managed to sneak in a few pics of my wedding outfit. Since Elisa was wearing royal blue, I figured I would too!

Sweater: Lane Bryant
Shirt: Old Navy
Skirt: Tommy Hilfiger (Macy's)

We had so much fun!

Doesn’t she look fab!?

Some of my friends/co-workers also showed up at the wedding. We all had such a good time.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

While Beyoncé may be the queen diva of music, her little sister Solange is becoming the grand diva of fashion. Solange rocked a purple Ferragamo blazer, red pants, a printed shirt and sandals at the relaunching of the Ferragamo Fifth Avenue flagship store .

Y'all know I already love this look… what do you think?
