the madewell event in 8

Tuesday, May 22

1 :: I had so much fun during the party that I didn't get any pictures until it was over. Which is a real bummer since the braid station, in all of its fishtail glory, deserved a shot or two. {I still consider a reverse braid to be super-advanced material so I was impressed}

2 :: My friend Lauren and I unintentionally showed up wearing matching shirts. I would say great minds think alike, but honestly my large dirty laundry pile decided my ensemble that night. Procrastination for the win. {Or lose. Depending on if we're pretending that matching is cool or not.}

3 :: Next time future life paths are being handed out, I'll take the one where I'm a DJ please. I mean honestly, could you BE cooler.

4 :: I'm pretty sure that Everett could have been my replacement at the party and no one would have minded one bit. You are so loved my little one.

5 :: My shoes were complete jerks.

6 :: At one point, I did in fact shake hands with someone with a wrapped taffy stuck to my palm. These are the secrets to success and professionalism.
 
7 :: YOU are just so wonderful and it was so great to meet and talk with all of you who came.

8 :: And to the lovely Madewell ladies who put it all together, your pinterest-ing knows no bounds. It looked beautiful.

Glad it was fun! I was in DC visiting but we left the day of the event. I am pretty in love with those clothes, I gotta say, you are one lucky lady.

You had to be there.

and yet you still look fantastic! I know that awkward hand shake all too well -it's more awkward if you're about to buy something and it's money in there. Bet taffy pretty awkward too right enough!

Haha. So funny that you and Lauren showed up wearing matching-ish shirts. I am glad the event went well. I was thinking about you two and hoping it was fun! You both looked gorgeous as always!
