Polyvore is such a wonderful tool. You can create outfits, design alter egos, spend thousands (without hurting your bank balance), even figure out what you need in your wardrobe to update for the new season.

In my case, create the suitcase I'm taking when I go on my 5 week trek through Europe in the height of summer.
I haven't got any of these things specifically (except the red wedges), but I have some similar items. My quest, between now and D-Day (Departure Day) is to make sure I've got all these things.
Pretty much all of them work together in some way, and are easily updated. Personally, I don't think I'm taking an excessive amount, which means a lighter suitcase! The other observation I made, I don't think I'd ever purposefully go out and look for these things as individual pieces. Putting them all together like that, I can see exactly which pieces mix and match, so looking for them becomes a whole lot easier!

As an example, I found a grey/black version of that frilly top ($1,990US from net-a-porter O_O) in Cotton On today...not QUITE as fancy, but not QUITE the same price tag either!
What do you think?

thanks for your comment, i'm so flattered.
and well, i do think about the rest of the wedding, but i'm mostly interested in the dress. I mean, the man is the man, and the food is food... but a dress, well... a dress can be so many lovely things! haha.
