Saturdays At Shop This: Modern Fairytale

And so the fairy tale begins for an American Princess. I know that you join me in wishing Meghan and Harry the best. Will you be watching? Royal horses couldn't hold me back. Before the pomp and circumstance, I do have some links to share.

The big question is, who will design Meghan's dress. There have been rumors of Ralph & Russo, who I adore. But maybe this was a tell, David Emanuel, co-designer of Elizabeth Emanuel, was spotted yesterday at Windsor Castle looking happy as ever. He helped to design Princess Di's dress. Whomever the designer is, I hope that she keeps to her sleek modern style.

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 can't help myself, I'm on a English kick today. I noticed on Barney's Window, British home furnishings designer, Tom Dixon, shares his new Yesterday, Today, And Tomorrow Collection and installation at Barneys. His home accessories make fabulous host gifts!

Jo Malone London: Have you tried it? My sweet niece gifted me with a candle last month. It is divine! Then I had a sample of the "grapefruit" fragrance. I loved it! It's all so gift worthy!

Father's Day is coming soon. If Dad is an Anglophile, he might really love Gallant & Beau's London Cab Cuff links. They are influenced by bespoke British style.
