My 2 cents on the Royal Wedding

I thought I wasn't going to care about the Royal Wedding, but turns out...i totally did.

-First things first. Kate Middleton is SO BEAUTIFUL. Seriously folks. She is stunning and not in a model-esque type of way but in the really pretty and normal kind of way, like a British Katie Holmes but without being totally weird.
-Next, if you're going to wear a hat, make sure its a normal looking cute one. Like this Princess from Spain, or whatever she is. Also i love her dress. Those princess cousins were like ugly stepsisters and their fascinators were outrageous and gross. On the Fashion Police on E!, Joan Rivers said one of them looked like they had an IUD on their head, and seriously, its true. I am not going to post those pictures because I'm about beauty over here, I'M NOT A MONSTER.
-OK maybe I am a monster...i thought this little girl was handicapped(shes obviosuly not, and it was brought to my attention that this joke, wasn't funny. You guys don't really think that I make fun of handicapped kids or speculate that kids have mental illnesses, for real, right????) I am sure she is DARLING and HAS THE FUNNIEST PERSONALITY but really, shes destined to wear an IUD hat (true), folks. Does she have irises in her eyes or are her eyeballs also flesh colored (it looks like she has flesh colored eyeballs, also true)?
I'M
TOTALLY A MONSTER. Sorry.
I did say that i am sure she is darling and fun. NOT ALL KIDS ARE CUTE on the outside. Duh. But they are defenitely ALL CUTE on the inside.

-Top 2 moments for me were 1) when Prince William leaned over and said to Kate, after her long walk down the aisle, "You look beautiful."
And 2) when he leaned in for the second balcony kiss and she giggled for a second.
Want to know why those were my favorite moments? Because they were human. The rest of the whole ordeal was just not emotional enough of for me. I WANTED TEARS. Every wedding I have been to, the couples who love each other show it with a little bit of waterworks during the wedding ceremony. I mean GOSH! Why are British people such robots?!? Am I right, or am i right?
-Kate's McQueen dress was obviously stunning. I really am a sucker for a wedding dress with a sweetheart neckline. They keep saying everywhere that it was a "plunging neckline" and I don't get it. PLUNGING? really? I wonder what would be said about my Jcrew vnecks that i wear everyday...I must be seriously slutty if that is plunging.-The showstopper though for me was Pippa and her dress. First of all, Pippa, you're a DOLL. Look how cute her figure is! And also, what a good sport for carrying her sisters train for like 30 minutes (slavery). Could have done without the babies breath and tendrils, but maybe that's like the IT thing in England. Also I really wish i was like 9 months pregnant with a girl and hadn't thought of a name yet...Her name would totally be Pippa.

-Lastly, I think the cake needs a mention. I only included the picture with the baker, because I wanted to make a point. If I was to have ever thought about what the Royal Wedding cake would look like, I'm sure I would have thought it was 13 ft tall and like 500 layers. 6 tiers is all. That's like nothing. I am pretty sure i have been to weddings with cakes bigger than this one. It just proves that Kate is totally normskis like they said. Just your everyday gal. (Yeah right, she was totally rich and pretentious before, duh)
And there you have it. I am purging my brain of all things Royal Wedding now.

but I loved the wedding. Kind of glad I woke up at two to watch it. :)

Taylor thought I was crazy for getting up at 2:30, but it was SOOO worth it! Amen on Pippa. She very nearly stole the show in that dress.

So good to talk to you the other day!

Girl, I am right there with you...kate is gorgeous, pippa's dress was a knock-out, the little girl was (ahem) a little handicap looking, and some of those hates were NASTY! Please tell me you saw the vagina one. Hahahahaha! OH, and maybe you'll like the flowers in Pippas hair when I tell you this...they were lily of the valley, the most expensive wedding flowers. Smells like heaven!!! :)

Totally obsessed over the wedding as well.
I will admit it was tough to see a lack of emotion. I was like, wtf, not even tears from the MOB?? That being said, it is what it is and they're just all about the poise and composure over there. There's something to be said about it.
Pippa was hands down a knock out. Incredible.
And the cake? Awesome. I hadn't seen a photo of it but I'm with you in thinking Kate's more down to earth. I didn't see this but my mom was telling me they showed her nails and there was no fancy french manicure, just simple. And you KNOW she could have rocked some seriously gaudy jewelry if she wanted. I also heard she wore flats.
Way to go Kate, a princess of the people!
