Horses and I go together like coffee and cream...and with the rustic barn wedding craze, I simply cannot get enough!

I literally SWOON at all of the stunning images of horses and weddings. With brides. With grooms. With couples. Even with a Prince and his Princess. Honestly picture perfect.

Even if you aren't ga-ga for equestrian, you can't deny the natural beauty and inspiration in horses and weddings...

I'm not sure if I'm channeling my inner-Beyonce or Rhianna but I am a fan of painitng my ring fingers different colors than the rest.

So fun - especially with all the great nail colors out there! I am always debating between a couple colors anyway so this is a perfect option. And super cool when accenting an awesome ring.

My personal favorite is neutral on all nails with a bright or neon shade on the ring fingers. Love.

Cheers!

OMG. If you ever have the opportunity to attend an Indie Wed show, jump on it!!

What is Indie Wed, you ask? Well, Indie Wed is the alternative to the traditional bridal expo - considered wedding planning redefined.

I love this event for so many reasons...the support of small local businesses, truly unique talent, ideas and products, the embracing of couples with an independent spirit - and a cool, intimate setting that feels like a cocktail party AND artisan market at the same time. Heaven.

To date the Indie Wed shows have been strictly in the Midwest...but rumor has it they are expanding nationally in 2013! Super exciting. Their next show is in Denver on July 31st (their Rocky Mountain debut- and in my mind, a perfect place for this event!)

After attending my first Indie Wed show in Milwaukee, I give it a definite thumbs up - and even recommend it for those who just love cool, unique inspiration for fashion, entertaining, food, paper goods, photography...not necessarily just wedding. They pick such great venues to host the show & market!

Here is a peek at the Milwaukee show...

 Who knows? Maybe I will see you mingling with a cocktail, dancing to the live music or browsing the market at one of these upcoming events...

Cheers!
