wednesday's.whimsy :: mish.mosh

it is late... & technically not really wednesday anymore, but for the sake of this "wednesday's whimsy", we'll pretend that it is.
i label this "wednesday's whimsy" "mish.mosh" because it truly is a mish mosh of the many thoughts & things that i have just wanted to share with you these past couple of days.
number one, i would like to introduce another best friend of mine... Michele, or Michie, as i like to call her. Michie is one of the most beautiful people you will ever meet & once you meet her, you just want to be around her. one easily falls in love with her sweet personality, her loud Italian laugh, or by just plain listening to her share one of her great stories... many of which happen daily.
Michele is the type of person that would do anything for a friend, family or loved one. she lives, breathes & exudes love, love, love.
she is also the friend who after reading my Bucket List post a little while back, actually wanted to help me accomplish one of them!
so as of officially a couple mornings ago.... my dear Michele stopped by my home full in hand with all the necessary works to make the perfect cappuccino with the cute little foamy heart on top!!! please see below :

& here is the beauty behind the magic... my Michie!

she has what i call 'happy eyes'... they light up the room, her face, everything around her!

she also came with these gorgeous sunflowers that she "just had to pick up because they were screaming my name!".... seriously, i felt like it was my birthday.
Michie, thank you for being such an incredible friend, for always being there to listen, laugh & give your fullest support. your visit the other day was a most refreshing mini break to my uber hectic days! ti amo, mi amica piu bella....

Michie also happens to be an incredible make-up artist that i refer out all the time, as well! below she did Em's make-up who was in town to shoot my sister's wedding
... isn't Em so beautiful!? i *
* her so much :

and speaking of my sister's wedding... i will definitely have a much longer post at some point (have to go in order of event shot!!), however many people have been asking to see something... so here is a small little sneak peek.
i couldn't resist to put a pic of her shoes -- i absolutely loved them :

hey peeps! just a little note to let you know that i will be out of office starting today, Thursday, August 21st & returning Monday, August 25th due to my sister, Olga's, wedding this weekend! i am her maid-of-honor, as well as her make-up artist for the BIG day! i am sooooooo excited that my big sis is getting married! it makes my heart happy to see her SO happy.
so with the many festivities going on these next couple of days, i know that it has finally come to the point where it might just be too hard to focus on 5,000 things at once and be a good maid-of-honor. after all, it is her big day & i don't want to miss a second of it!
oh... & yes, although i will have my MOH duties, i will definitely be taking photographs! those will have to be posted at some point this year,,, i am thinking most likely a good wednesday whimsy!
i hope you have a lovely weekend,
ksen
...& speaking of make-up, below are some images of my beautiful sister when i did her make-up trial back in July for her bridal shower! isn't she gorgeous?...
