Well, once again, Miss Annie K is off on a fabulous vacation (black-tie wedding in NYC. Yes, please!), so she’s asked me to once again help out with a little guest-blogging. Lucky you, loyal readers. I am also going to reveal some very embarrassing info about AKL’s fearless founder, so stay tuned! My gallery idea came about when I was getting ready at Annie’s house today, where I am currently dog-sitting her dog, Max, as well as my two insane creatures. It’s a bit of a full house, so to distract myself from the constant fur/slobber/barking, etc., I’ve been taking full advantage of the extensive iTunes collection at the Archie house.
Although I had to wade through a lot of weepy country and heavy metal, I’ve also found a seemingly never-ending supply of divalicious music, including Miss Aguilera’s newest album, Lotus. So, in addition to inspring a lot of diva-handing, it has also inspired today’s Burlesque post. As much as I still love Xtina, let’s be real. . . girl kinda peaked in this movie. A big group of us girls went to see it in the theater and as cheesy as this movie was. . .we also immediately went to Target afterwards to get the soundtrack. Even though, I can’t really bring myself to get through this movie without busting out laughing anymore, the soundtrack is still a fun listen at any time — especially on a morning when I can’t figure out to work the Archie coffee machine, I’m 80 pages behind in reading for one of my classes and am having what can only be considered an epically bad hair day. And don’t even get me started on the status of my Spanx tights right now. . . So, rather than pay attention to my first class today, I put together this little collection of sexy ladies. (And pink champagne, because well, it’s pink champagne.)
And while we’re on the topic of sexy ladies. . . while we were at Target getting this soundtrack, Annie dropped a bombshell on us. Apparently, girl does one hell of a Cher impression! Now, I’ve been friends with her for a shade over a decade — and I’ve yet to see it happen. So, this is my challenge to both Annie and all her fellow readers — we need to make this happen, because watching her do a Cher impression would most likely be the greatest thing since pink champers!
This week’s gallery is really more of a collage. I was inspired after speaking with my cousin earlier this week regarding her June 2013 wedding. She’s getting married at a resort on the gorgeous Priest Lake in Idaho! I am beyond excited because this location is one of the most magical places in the US!! Her mother grew up vacationing on this lake, so it has special meaning to my cousin and her immediate family. And, because it will be a summer wedding on the beach, she chose a bright color palette of orange and lime! These bold colors will play will with the gorgeous natural background of the lake. My favorite idea so far? The bride and groom are going to take photos on their wooden boat!! With all this exciting wedding planning, I couldn’t help but make a collage! I even included some pics of the resort where the wedding will be held ;) I am so thrilled for you, Liv, and you are going to be such a beautiful bride!
