guest Friday: custom aBree Original dress




aBree Original dress // M&J Floral Trim // Nordstrom earrings // gifted shoes 

I made this dress for my sister for her birthday a couple years ago (fabric from Mood and JoAnn's). It was inspired by a dress I once saw at Anthropologie. I loved the unexpected mix of fabrics. 

I've been busy updating my fashion design website - aBreeOriginal.com and viewing my wedding photo proofs that were just sent to me by my photographer! Yay!!

Happy Weekend!

what we wore: J.Crew Photoshoot

I featured this photo shoot in January when I started this blog and thought I'd re-share. My little sister is literally one of my very best friends (despite our 6.5 year age gap). We never fight. Never have. We share everything. And I miss her. So here's to sisters (and J.Crew) for being awesome!

All items are J.Crew or J.Crew Factory unless noted.
(Bree: Michael Kors gold watch, Bain: Nordstrom diamond stud earrings)

My sister and I basically put all of our summer-ish J.Crew clothes in a pile and then mixed and matched to find corresponding outfits! My friend Kiara (who also took my engagement pictures) took the pictures! We are a little obsessed - and that is okay!

(Bain: Steve Madden Shoes; Bree: Timex Watch)



 (We've both always had long natural (never died) hair - that is stick straight aka doesn't hold curl well. We take after our mother who's hair was exactly the same growing up.)
