You all know I love any and every excuse to hop back to the west coast from time to time -- but especially if it involves a wedding or two. Truth be told, if and when I get married, I'd probably err more on the side of a city hall nuptial ceremony (and head to the airport immediately afterward for some amazing trip), but I do love attending my friends' weddings. It's such a treat to see everyone that loves them just so selflessly happy for the couple. The speeches, the sweet glances between the bride and groom, the slight gasp of admiration when the bride starts her walk down the aisle and god, the dancing! With any luck, lots of dancing.

Of course, this means, the right shoes have to come into the picture. Since my summer is pretty jam packed with weddings, I've been searching for a pair or two that goes the extra mile from the ceremony to 3am Funky Chicken sessions. You guys first saw these Imagine Vince Camuto wedges when I brought them along with me to Rome a few weeks ago and this time around, they worked out perfectly for a jaunt down to Carmel for my friends' Juanjo and Nicole's ceremony. The white lace detailing adds the perfect amount of elegance to an otherwise very summer style shoe and the dainty ankle strap helps give the illusion of longer, leaner legs.

As for the ceremony itself -- there's something so wildly untamed and romantic about the Carmel area. The mist that settles in and hugs the whole area, the dramatic seaside-scapes, the rolling hills of Dr. Seuss-esque trees. It's hard not to get swept up in it while you're there, especially to celebrate something as special as two people declaring their love for each other.

Congrats Juanjo and Nicole! So happy for you both!
