We’re Back! We got in late last night, came home, Pete heaved me over the threshold (our honeymoon ended up being a lot about my love of food…and I have returned a bit more zaftig than I left…but that is a story for another post) and we immediately set to work catching up on our DVR. Which meant first up, Gossip Girl. The episode that aired the Monday after our wedding?
The one where Blair wore this?
Which is significant, because exactly four days earlier at Pete’s and my rehearsal dinner, I wore this:
One more time for the slow folks…
And now me, 4 days earlier…
…I mean, if I hadn’t just changed my name to Bailey McCarthy, I would take this as an unmistakeable sign that I should be Bailey Waldorf.
Hers was some fancypants designer, mine was Kara Janx. The style is actually CALLED “The Bailey” if you can believe it. 
I know, I got chills too.
Oh…and then of course this…Via Neotad…via Vogue Italia.
And now sit back, relax, and prepare for at least a week of non-stop wedding re-caps. Starting first, tomorrow, with our honeymoon-because the photographer’s pics won’t be ready for awhile, and I know y’all are sick of me being such a miserable tease first with the non-reveal of our house re-do and all, so I am stealing gathering pictures of the wedding from the paparazzi guests.
Thank you to everyone who filled in for me while I was away, it was so nice to know my little bloggyblog was in good hands and that I could really let go, enjoy kissing my new husband, and get fat and occasionally a bit drunk on my honeymoon! I now feel sufficiently wedded and well-rested and prepared to resume my responsibilities as your work-day distraction.
Hasta Manana!
