Beautiful Day for a Christening

Last Sunday D was given the honor of being the godfather to his beautiful goddaughter and niece Ava. It was a beautiful (yet sweltering and hot) day for the event, but overall a lovely one.
I wanted to share with you what I wore that day, a little look of the day "Man Edition" and some other little details from the day. Enjoy : )
Outfit Details
Lace Dress: boutique in Hoboken // Bubble Necklace: J. Crew // Watch: Michael Kors
Bracelet: Swarovski (maid of honor gift from my bff) // Purse: Coach // Nude Heels: Nine West
Nail Polish: OPI Koala Berry
And some details from the day --
 The beautiful flowers....
 and the yummy menu - the sea bass was to die for!
 And of course the reason for the day - little miss Ava Carmela. 
She's got the cutest little chubby cheeks ever!
D and Ava. What a proud godfather and uncle he was that day!
Us at the church.
@ the reception.

And for the second time...
  Look of the Day: Man Edition for your reading pleasure : )
Mr. GQ
Totally proud of the suit and tie combination I picked out!
Had no idea we'd be so color coordinated with the event!
But loving the purple on purple look.
And a few pics I played around with on instagram - totally feeling the b+w, sitting in the coffee shop look here ; ) Awwww he's so handsome!


Hope you all enjoyed the pics from such a special day we had.
Happy Monday!

    You look STUNNING in that white dress! I can't quite pull off the white lace since I am already so white. If I find a white dress like yours maybe I will just get a spray tan.
