Wedding Season

And so it begins. Last weekend my childhood friend Amanda Wolfard married and wonderful guy named Zach. Zach caught the garter at our wedding so naturally their union was meant to be :) I am so glad that Amanda and Zach let us be a part of their special day. We had a great time in Arizona!

Update on the tanning situation: I chickened out and didn't do the spray tan, it was too short of notice. I was worried if it went badly I'd look orange. I ended up using good ol' Dove Energy Glow lotion which certainly helped my blinding white skin. I promise to try the spray tan for the next wedding coming up in May. Thanks so much for all the helpful advice, I'm a little lost in the tanning world!

Need a Glow

Well friends, wedding season is upon us! I love weddings and I LOVE shopping for dresses to wear to weddings! So I have been shopping up a storm on every day that I've had off for the last week and a half trying to get ready for some upcoming events. Unfortunately, my dress buying skills are not as sharp as my car buying skills and I've been a bit indecisive. I've been to all of my favorite stores and tried on way too many dresses.

This morning I got super lucky and found two good options. A cute little number from H&M and another dress, completely different at Lord & Taylor, so I bought both. Now here is the kicker. I have been living in the snow for the last 6 months and believe it or not I started to blend in. I am pasty. The sun has started to come out now that it is spring but I don't know if I am going to be able to lay out in our backyard enough before our first wedding engagement in just 10 short days. This could be a problem.

No matter which dress I end up wearing I am going to need some degree of bronzy glow in order to pull it off. I have never, NEVER in my life, fake n' baked. I have used Dove Energy Glow lotion in the past but it takes time to build up and is very subtle. It's great to use on arms and legs but then the rest of you is still white. So what is the best (and healthiest) way to get a natural looking tan (that is NOT orange)????? If you are a tanning expert please help me!

Isn't this cool??? I want one.
