Weekend purchases

We've been engaged for 18 months. Leave it to me to wait until 2 weeks before we leave for the wedding to finish my shopping.

I finally bought a rehearsal dress - a brand new with tags Monsoon dress from Ebay. I admit to having a small obsession with this style of dress, as this green one is now my third (I also own it in white with polka dots and in a silky blue colour).



I also finally found some shoes and earrings at Debenhams. Sometimes I think the shoes are a bit fugly but they have a nice low heel (which I need) and were only 15 pounds! I'm quite happy with the earrings. (Although amused that I spent just as much on earrings as I did on shoes...)




I also found this vintage golden syrup tin at a charity shop down the road. I plan to use it to hold the Sharpies for our guest book. I have a small obsession with vintage tins (I blame my Mother) and I love the colours...


Finally, my pendant also arrived from Etsy seller PiecesOfMePendants the other day. I'll attach it to my bouquet. I know that the whole Keep Calm thing is considered over done, but I really think I need to remind myself to relax. I tend to become a crusty hose-beast when stressed and there is nothing worse than a miserable bride... :)

Everything looks awesome! Your dress looks great! I love the earrings! And don't worry, you won't be a hose-beast! We won't let you! :)
