Lindsey and Chris’ Wedding: One Dress, Two Dress, Three Dress, Floor

Lindsey and Chris’ wedding has come and gone and I have to say, what a party. I haven’t danced so hard in my entire life, and on top of that the music, the food, the drinks, the decorations…all spectacularly beautiful. I hope the happy couple enjoyed themselves as much as I did.

And to recap such a spectacular night I have just the thing – Wedding Superlatives! Get excited. A random sampling of the best/worst-but-in-a-funny-way things of the evening. Feel free to add your own below, because I’m sure there are parts of the night I missed (that have nothing to do with the tequila). And to all those readers out there who dared me to wear my mom’s black sequined dress circa 1993: peoples be owin’ me monies.

The Tree is Up! The Holiday Season Can Finally Begin

Oh, Target Christmas tree.

Now that it’s December, and it’s actually appropriate to start celebrating Christmas, I had a Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony of my own last night. Yes, the tree is a bit smaller, and instead of ice skaters it overlooks my radiator, but it’s still pretty and makes my apartment all cozy and such. I may keep it up till March.

I do have a slight fear that my radiator is going to get really hot and set the tree on fire, burning down not only my apartment but the entire building and maybe even the entire street. But I guess that’s the price you pay for Holiday Cheer.

Now bring on the snow!

I’ve Seen My Future, And it Looks Like Grey Gardens

We could totally pass for the Bouvier Beales.

My quest to become Little Edie Beale got a little more real Thanksgiving weekend, as my Aunt Carole and I played dress up in some of my nana’s old gowns (pictured right). Aunt Carole looked better in these dresses than I did, but that’s what Zumba will do for you. You go, girl!

So it’s pretty much cemented that I will have an affair with someone in the state department that looks like a Baldwin brother, will lose all my hair, will move in with my mother (or Aunt Carole, who is doing an awesome Big Edie impersonation), and will eventually start to wear awesome headscarves (which clearly is a good look for me). I’ll spend the rest of my time here in Boston perfecting my affected New England accent. And we already have the house in the Hamptons. This plan is done and done.
