Honeymoon shopping was my guilty pleasure for the past eight months. Every time I saw a pretty dress, pair of shoes or bag I justified it as a 'honeymoon' outfit piece. We had the most magical time ever on our honeymoon (and I didn't even pack half the outfits I planned... oops!). I thought I'd make a 10 Things post inspired by "Honeymoon Worthy" pieces. Maybe some of you are planning your special getaway right now? Enjoy....
1. This yellow swimsuit from Ruche. swoon!
2. This incredibly gorgeous and unique lingerie piece from ModCloth. (*Have you seen that you can Shop My Faves on ModCloth this month?)
3. Vintage floral luggage (like this piece from Etsy). I have a huge collection of patterned luggage from the 1960s and it was so fun to tote some of it along with us on our honeymoon!
4. Snow cones! We ate so many snow cones on our honeymoon. They're my favorite warm weather treat! Raspberry, Mojito, Green Apple, Wedding Cake... I pretty much love every flavor!
5. In the Spring and Summer I love anything floral. LOVE this dress!
6. Everyone needs a big floppy hat this season. SO fun. (via TopShop)
7. sandals. these are super cute (via Anthropologie)
8. Treats! We ate so much guilty pleasure food on our honeymoon. It was heaven! (photo of Hey Cupcake! found here)
9. Orla Kiely perfume. soooo pretty! (thank you, Holly!)
10. Tacos. We ate lots of tacos on our honeymoon and now Jeremy's been making them at home. They're so good!
Welcome to a new week! XOXO, elsie
Aw such sweet, summery finds. I adore the swimsuit and the lingerie! Oh and you know I love your colorful luggage!
Oh, and for all of your unpacked "honeymoon" clothes...now you can call them "newlywed" clothes. ;-)
Have a great week Elsie!

I'm planning for mine, but don't know where we're going yet. That suit looks like it'd be perfect for anywhere. beach or poolside. :) Thanks for the post.

I have not heard of the Orla Kiely perfume. I am very curious to get a whiff of it. I am sure the bottle is precious!

Thanks so much for sharing these links! I need a new swimsuit this summer and love the one you posted from Ruche. Also I had never heard of LibbyStory. Very cute stuff!

That swimsuit is so pretty! It's so nice finding retro-styled swimwear because I like to be modest at the beach :)
All of these things are making me look forward to summer!

Next time you're in KCMO, you have to try fresher than fresh snowcones. They are DIVINE! She's always out and about selling from the back of her caravan and has a permanent locale on sundays at this amazing park. My favorite flavor is espresso with mexican cane sugar. The watermelon basil is also divine!
