Saturday's At Shop This:

Don't you just want to be a butterfly in Bucklebery today? I so remember how Pippa's "almost royal" bum nearly stole the show in her bridesmaid dress designed by Alexander McQueen in 2011. She was almost as breathtaking as her sister, Kate. I am writing this post on Friday, by the time you read it, we may know who designed her dress, and even have a peek at the little royals. It's so exciting. The British are calling Pippa's nuptials the wedding of the year! Didn't get your invite? Here are some links to keep you busy this weekend.

Speaking of weddings and toasting the newlyweds......Surely you have heard the saying "Rosé All Day," or "Yes Way Rosé."  In some circles it has almost become Summer's Water, because it is light and refreshing. Perhaps the most well known brand is Whispering Angel Rose. It's highly rated by the experts, has a cult following, and is less than $25. So if you want to look hip, bring a bottle to your next barbecue. You can find it at Wine.com

Look to this edit at Childrensalon for everything Fit for a Little Prince Or Princess. The littlest royals could be wearing something from here and/or the designer, Nicki Macfarlane. Nicki designed the bridesmaids dresses for the wedding of HRH Duchess of Cambridge.

I am sorry that there was no Foodie Friday. Sometimes life and Internet issues just get in the way. Since it is National Pick Strawberries Day, here's a fabulous recipe from the famous Beekman Boys. Strawberry Rhubarb Pie With Hazelnut Crumble.

This is a reminder not to take yourself too seriously. It's always a good thing to have a jolly good laugh.
