Don’t you just love being able to say, “I know her!” Or him, or them…whatever – just saying that you are connected to someone famous. Or kind of famous, or just really well liked…whatever.
Well, that happened to me a couple of days ago when I was perusing my Google reader oohing and aahing over design sites and wishing I didn’t have so many favorites (seriously – I open my reader and see thousands of unread posts – yikes!)
Anyway – one of my favorite favorites (there are tiers you know) is coco+kelly. And as I was breezing through a lovely little wedding pictorial, I had one of those, “I know her!” moments.
See these pretty little raspberry numbers?
They were designed by my friend Kathlin Argiro. I love Kathlin’s work and always feel very proud (and maybe just a bit smug) to show off this connection of mine.
It’s hard to see the dress in that tiny image, but here is a better view in a different fabric:
I would wear this to a garden party. And of course I would tell everyone who gave me a compliment (which would be everyone) that I KNOW the designer. Yes – I’m very well connected…
Do you have any interesting connections? Feel free to brag in comments.
Well, a friend of mine designed & made my wedding dress, so she's super talented, does that count? ;)
Hmm I'll have to think about this one. Do you know I gave you an award on Thursday? It's super cute – you'll love it.
That dress is beyond gorgeous! I'm totally forwarding your friend's site to the bride whose wedding I'm in. Thanks!!
