Lolly's And My Wedding Report From Propped Up On Our Shared Pillow

Lolly and I were propped up in bed, Vivien Sheriff fascinators on in spirit, by 5:15 am on Friday and, within 15 minutes, had the bff Kimba conferenced in. When she asked her barely awake hubby Bryan if he planned on watching the Royal Wedding with us, he asked where our support had been the previous night when he stayed up watching the NFL draft...



Lolls and I may as well have stayed up watching the draft cuz we barely slept imagining Kate's nerves and excitement and wondering if she was tossing and turning as well. And, of course we cried at the beauty and pageantry of the entire ceremony...



Although, while everyone else seemed to be comparing Kate to Grace Kelly, Lolly and I were of a different opinion and hummed How Do You Solve a Problem Like Mariaaa the rest of the day...

And, as beautiful as Kate was, we found ourselves obsessing over how skinny smashing Pippa looked...

And, we're officially beginning our Pippa whittled waist Diet today. According to intel from Pink Julep Abroad, Kate and Mrs. Middleton have been on the Duken Diet. We're gonna assume Pippa would have most likely followed suit and dedicate a good portion of the morning to some Duken Diet due diligence...

After that we plan on perusing Vivien Sheriff and Philip Treacy for hats and then work on figuring out where to get Babe some of those nifty brass kick stands for his dress shoes...

Kindness of Emma for forgiving me one missed Insanity workout due to wedding festivities even though she has managed to squeeze hers in alongside exams, travel and celebrating Sally's 21st birthday. I'll make up for it with my Pippa Diet I promise...XXOO

Swankiest Sandals

Since this is my inaugural posting I figured I better pull out the big guns. What better way to debut than by revealing my most coveted handmade sandals. Canfora on the Isle of Capri has been creating these beautifully embellished sandals that have been a must all over the world since 1946.

Each pair of Canfora's is like a piece of artwork and you will be mobbed, mobbed I tell you, whenever you don a pair.

The pricing is in euros so pop over to the universal currency converter to figure out the price in buckaroos.

Then you too may lump yourself in with the other notable customers of international fame such as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Grace Kelly, Princess Margaret, Princess Caroline, Maria Callas, Elle McPherson and Alice Richardson, natch!

POST SCRIPT: Costanzo at Canfora has kindly agreed to extend his private sale to my fashionable readers. Just put in the code TCB200809-11 and receive 15% off your entire order thru March 31. He would like me to express that this was an exclusive gift for customers who have recently ordered and since I fall into that category (woops, btw Babe, tada...I got a new pair of sandals...), and the entire world is feeling the economic squeeze, he would be more than happy to make this exception.
