Je suis heureux de se retourner. (I'm happy to return.) After exam discussions relating globalization to technology, it only seems proper to dabble in the subject for my return to cyber-couture with a little French.
So, now that school has been suspended until fall, I have a little more time to direct my wedding event. After stumbling on the designs of Lewis Cho, I now envision a wonderful hommage to the departure dress, a quaint way to exit your reception AND have a completely different dress as you step out as a married woman. The NY design team has a gorgeous wool jersey babydoll dress on display in the August Vogue (yes, I'm finally reading it). It has a price tag that won't require foregoing a tiered cake ($209), and it looks elegant enough to pass as a wedding dress if maybe you are more womanly in age and/or not seeking that traditional look--don't forget a retro, poofy 60s style veil.
Departing requires transporation. My new husband and I will be traveling by airline, so a carry-on bag full of essentials (this is not the time to lose luggage) is a must have. Dooney & Bourke has so many great travel bags, but the all-weather leather collection will wear greatly as a tote. The large tassel tote, in saddle not the featured black, is $425 and roomy enough for a makeup bag, pair of undies, a good book and whatever else you'd need.
No outfit is complete without shoes. Absolutely necessary are the new Jimmy Choo Brocade d'Orsay pumps. Skip invitations, call guests on the phone, and use the money saved for this $565 work of art. Or, no one will notice missing monogrammed cocktail napkins . . . !!!With a good, light hair fur coat, this newlywed is ready to honeymoon.
