I'm a Sucker

I bought my rehearsal dinner dress yesterday. Until hitting "add to cart," I hadn't really thought about what I would wear to that particular event. After we booked the location a year ago, I kinda stopped thinking about the rehearsal dinner altogether.

Then I saw a cute white dress on one of the one million wedding blogs that I read and I started thinking that it might be fun to wear white for the RD. I headed over the Anthropologie, which is my go-to place for... almost anything, and the first white dress that I saw was this one.

The fabric looks so nice and light. I love all the little details, it's white and they had it in my size. What really inspired me to hit "add to cart," however, was the name of the dress- La Jolla. La Jolla, California is where Mr. Peacock proposed. I have been known to impulse buy things based on their name and it has usually served me well. I have purchased shoes (awesome vintage black and white polka dot peep toes), lipstick and a pricey handbag all because we shared a first name. I had been pretty good about laying off the impulse buys thus far for wedding purchases, but I'm a sucker for a good name.

Anyone else been guilty of the wedding impulse buy?
