Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.

MARILYN MONROE

It has been a crazy busy weekend! My friend Emily, whose bridal shower I mentioned here, tied the knot yesterday. The whole wedding described everything I love about Emily to a tee, and I can’t wait to share a few details with you. To kick off Sally’s Pins, here is my favorite bride.

Fresh Peach Margarita with Lime Sugar: Why do margaritas have to be so hard to resist? At least this option looks more nutritious than the standard one. I can totally sell drinking this to myself.

How to Tie a Belt 12 Different Ways: I am a Plain Jane when it comes to tying belts. I always wear mine traditionally. Thanks to this guide, I am spicing it up.

Chili Lime Shrimp Cups: I want to have a party just so I can make these! I bet they taste even better than they look.

30 Books About Being Different: I can’t help it. I love self-help books, and I want to be anything but normal.

Strawberry Lemonade Layer Cake: Strawberry cake makes me happy. Maybe it is the happy pink color or just because it is purely enchanting.

Giraffe Manor: Being a tall girl, I like things that make me feel small. This would include giraffes for sure. On my bucket list is meeting a giraffe now.

Denim X2 and Neon Belt: My newest purchase is an orange neon belt, which would look perfect with this denim inspiration.

Outdoor Wall Art: I dream about a day when I can keep flowers alive. The painted terracotta holders look simple but elegant on the wall here.

Skinny Baked Mozzarella Sticks: I don’t know if I could stop after eating just one of these. One dunk in marina and I would be hooked.

Modern Kitchen Table: I really love this look. I want so badly to dabble in mixing modern furniture with my traditional style.

Avocado, Cream Cheese, and Salsa-Stuffed Puff Pastries: You had me at puff pastry, and maybe avocado too. I am sold on trying to make these.

Turquoise Bib Necklace: Big necklaces are what I would say are the best addition to my closet. They can be paired with simple or sophisticated to make any look. Plus they always fit no matter what.

Coconut Quinoa Pudding: From quinoa to chia seeds, I am dying to try using new grains and seeds to make delectable puddings. This is the perfect nightcap in my opinion.

Spring Brights: The brighter the better this season, according to JCrew. I spotted a girl at Panera today with a similar purse, and I desperately wanted to ask where she got it. Instead, I just awkwardly stared.

Dog Humor: The bride’s family has an adorable Boston Terrier that always makes me laugh…kind of like this photo.

To wrap up Doug Week, I wanted to share one more tidbit about this silly dog, he’s balding.

Yup, that’s right. Instead of having a baldhead, he has a balding neck and I love every inch of that little pooch.

Have you been to any fun weddings lately?
