God Save the Queen and Her Wedding Dress

So the good thing about being in a [slightly/pre-/whatever] monarchist country is that it's perfectly normal and acceptable to wake up super early in the morning/night to watch the Royal Wedding. Which is what happened to me this morning when my mother came into my room at 6am, proceeded to wake me up to tell me where my tv remote was and then got into my bed to watch the ceremony begin.

Well, at least my weary self can be glad she didn't insist on watching it from the 3am beginning.

Anyways, Kate's dress made me slightly swoon. I mean, I'm not really one for long trains - they're fine for other people and do look gorgeous, but I'm more of a tea-length, classic cocktail length dress type of gal - but the top of her dress was FABULOUS. All I could think of was Grace Kelley mixed with Audrey Hepburn. And because of this, Kate Middleton has been deemed worthy in my eyes.

Eff, I love wedding dresses.

pretty much my dream dress: the wedding dress in Funny Face starring Audrey, and Fred Astaire.
