Dressed by My Husband

From our honeymoon in Puerto Vallarta. This must've been before I felt seasick.

This is the Dressed by: Special Anniversary Edition since today is my husband's and my fourth wedding anniversary! When I mentioned it to him the other day, his reaction was, "It's only been four years?" Haha, I then reminded him that we've been together for seven, and he felt better about that. I guess neither of us can say, "It feels like just yesterday," but that's fine. I don't think that's a bad thing.

Even though our wedding feels like forever ago, I know we both remember it as one of the most fun days of our life together. We did things exactly how we wanted to do them - a little bit traditional and a little bit nerdy and quirky - and it was pretty darn near perfect.

Traditional vs.

Nerdy

To the outfit! I figured asking my husband to dress me would go one of two ways - he would get excited, pick out a white T-shirt and jeans, and insist I wear no makeup; or, he would be impossible and refuse to do it, and I would end up having to take my best guess while trying to get any input or positive reaction from him. It ended up being a mixture of both. I had to do some negotiating and give him options instead of letting him loose on my whole closet; but after he was done, he was like, "How hard was that? I picked out an outfit in two minutes." Well, it's a lot easier with only having to choose among 25 pieces strewn on the bed in plain sight. Still, we were both pleased with the end result, and I even got a casual outfit idea out of him that I can use later!

Top: Target; Skirt: New York & Company; Boots: Kohl's
