Look, I like DIY project as much as the next girl but on your wedding day why skimp and DIY when there are honest affordable florists out there.

I made this dress to attend a wedding, using a Laura Ashley pattern that is sadly now out of print (M5232, View C, http://mccallpattern.mccall.com/m5232-products-4726.php?page_id=522). It's supposed to be a modern style, but I used a stiff brocade as my fashion fabric. When I was done, I realized that the stiffness of the brocade made the skirt flare out and give it a 1950s style silhouette. I love this because it's like stealth vintage!

Right now I'm dreaming of some ice cream, and I just remembered a great Bay Area treat - IT'S-IT! It's a chocolate-covered ice cream cookie sandwich. It is so, so good. I even considered just ordering cases of these for my wedding instead of having a cake. But it turned out the cake was cheaper.

In a previous article where I suggested 104 photographers to follow on Google+, I received a lot of criticism because over 90% of the listed photographers were men.

This time I'm taking a slightly different approach. Since the best way to get to know photographers is through their work, I've included one photo fo...
