First off, CONGRATULATIONS to Alison for 150 Friday's Fancies. With it's success I not only discovered your fabulous blog, but many others that have quickly become daily reads. I am so happy to be a part of this weekly link-up and become inspired by everyone's fancy post. Congrats, girl!

Now, to this week's topic, because we are all in a celebratory mood, the theme of the week was dressing up for a fancy party (to celebrate Friday's Fancies of course!). I fell in love with this dress as soon as I saw it and wish that I had the money to add it to my closet. It is a great dress for the winter and has so much potential for fun accessorizing. Hopefully I can find something similar to add to my collection soon.

Wedding Weekend

As I mentioned on Friday, I flew to Reno last week for a good friend's wedding. It was so fun to see all my old sorority sisters and dance the night away while catching up on everyone's lives. It was so much fun to dress up and see all my college friends.

The wedding was followed by a day at the lake on Saturday. A few of us rented a boat and literally spent the day on the lake. The weekend was a blast and I can't wait to come back in just a few weeks!

What to Wear to a Fall Wedding

Over the next few weeks, Brad and I are attending three weddings. With so many weddings in the near future, I have started planning some of my outfits, especially for the weddings across the country. Each of the weddings is requiring cocktail dress attire so at least picking out dresses should not be too much of a struggle.

The first wedding that we are attending is for one of Brad’s coworkers where I will probably know nobody at the wedding. I am planning on wearing something simple that will be comfortable yet fun as it is on a Friday evening. I am currently loving this dress from DressFirst. I love how simple it is with solid black and will be perfect for accessorizing.

The second wedding we are attending is in my hometown in Reno, Nevada. One of my sorority sisters is getting married and I already purchased my dress. It is a very colorful strapless dress with a tulip hemline. I will be sure to post photos in a few weeks following the wedding.

The third wedding we will be heading to is going to be in Washington, DC. Because it is in the beginning of October, I want to wear something a little more geared towards fall. I am obsessed with this gold number from DressFirst. It is a great color for fall and would look stunning on the dance floor.

After scouring this website for dress inspiration for my upcoming weddings, I can’t believe what a great selection there is with such great price points.

*Note: While this is a sponsored post, all opinions are my own and I would love to own any of the dresses listed in this post.

New Years Party Dresses

With New Years Eve just around the corner, I wanted to be sure to post some of my top picks for the upcoming event. Even though I am still unsure as to where I will be spending my last moments of 2012, I know I would love to be anywhere in any of these four dresses.
