I am extremely happy for two of my closest friends, Elissa & James, and their recent engagement! Even more so after I was told I was to be the maid of honor! The rest of the bridal party (also some of my closest friends), decided to take the bride-to-be out for a bridesmaid brunch to celebrate the engagement at the Pelican Grand in Ft. Lauderdale. We had a fabulous time – maybe a little too fabulous – I ended up sick as a dog the following week. But I have to say, spending time with these girls is always worth it, no matter the outcome!

Gold flower necklace; Off 5th

Cuff; gifted

I think this outfit fit the vibe perfectly. I wanted something feminine and romantic since we were celebrating love and marriage, but also needed something airy as we were going to be sitting outside by the beach. Everyone knows this season is all about the maxi dress, but it can be pretty difficult to find the right one. I found my perfect maxi while perusing the clearance section at Marshall’s (along with 2 other beauties, but I digress)! I am in love with its little ruffles and tiers. Everything about it screams girly. I paired it with some gold accessories and was on my way!

Of course, I had to add the sparkly goodness! Congrats, my love 🙂
