Kate, Kate, Kate
You are lovely. This dress is lovely. Sarah Burton's world just got turned upside down! The lace detailing and that sweetheart bodice are to die for, not to mention the tiara and veil are just perfect. [IDENTITY CLUE] Chic Deac wasn't alive when Charles and Diana got married, but her dress made it look like she was trying to be royal. Kate just looks regal herself and the dress goes along with her stunning smile.

Royal Wedding Hiatus
Good thing classes are over and we don't have any exams tomorrow. I mean we could be studying, but the royal wedding is on. Some thoughts on Kate Middleton:
That dress. That hair. That RING.
Chic Deac didn't even know that people could still pull off sheer black tights
and manage to look stylish, but leave it to Kate.
Let's be honest: If any woman in the world besides her tried to pull this off, we'd all look like absolute fools. How does she do it? You won't see a post entitled "Wearing a Fascinator101" on Chic Deac any time soon, but kudos to her.
We'll obviously be back next week with a full review on the gown and more, but for now we'll be watching the wedding pretending to study the pile of flashcards in our lap.

Cascading Style
Looking for something to lengthen those legs on graduation weekend? Check out this cascading trim dress from The Gap. The ruffles elongate the shape of your body and if you wear nude heels like the model, you'll be set.

Maxi Dress
Can you pull off a maxi dress? The truth is everyone can, regardless of body shape and height, as long as you follow some basic rules and pair it with some killer shoes. We don't have to look just like Gwyneth Paltrow to make it work.
Find out what the rules are for your body type by clicking here and then check out this Old Navy maxi dress and pair of Michael Kors espadrilles we've been eying lately.

The Perfect Dress for Graduation
Happy Monday, chic ones! It's getting to be that time of year where things really just get too crazy for words. We'll still be posting every day but we may be a little less present due to our busiest exam schedule ever. Keep checking back for new posts and we WILL be posting throughout the summer minus a few breaks here and there. Anyhow, back to finding you that perfect dress for graduation day:
Strapless with black, white and yellow stripes - this dress was practically made for walking across the Quad on graduation day. Get it at The Limited for $90.

Tory Does it Again
Doesn't she know I won't have $600 to throw around until my summer job paychecks kick in? And that even then it would be completely irresponsible of me to purchase this purse? And that I will probably buy it regardless? At least it has scratch resistant saffiano leather, which means I will be able to tell myself it is indeed a very practical purchase.

Say it in Code
We LOVE this necklace design, featured on Cup of Jo this week and sent in by a fabulous reader. These Morse Code Necklaces from the First Date Boutique are adorable. Spelling out words like love, amore, friend and sister, they make the perfect gift for a friend, mom or sorority sister. Mother's Day gift, anyone?? Buy them here.

Tory Burch Top
If we had a summer house in the Hamptons, this is what we would wear to our fabulous poolside party. Some basic black shorts, gold sandals and a margarita in hand would compliment this shirt perfectly.

Oh La Garconne - You are Dreamy
Loving the print on this cotton dress from La Garconne. You know, in case you have $470 to drop on a graduation dress. With the right heels and jewelry, you'll be a stunner on graduation weekend.
And if you don't, have 500 bucks in the bank ... Check out this darling dress from Urban Outfitters.

Graduation Dresses
Chic ones, we've gotten several requests for help finding that PERFECT graduation dress. We know several of you are probably freaking out about graduating, but hopefully shopping for a dress will alleviate your anxiety attacks about entering the real world. There are several occasions on that weekend when you'll want to wear a dress, so we're going to try and post one dress per day over the next few weeks. Options are a beautiful thing, right??
Here's a great one to start with ... This sunny soiree dress from Anthro is perfect for just that - a sunny soiree. Perhaps you've got a fun brunch scheduled or an afternoon wine tasting. Chic Deac loves the separate piece look, especially without the hassle of actually being separate pieces!

Anthro Doily Top
This is a great top with a pair of skinny jeans and sandals for a breezy summer evening, but we'd actually love to use it as a beach cover up. Get a colorful cute bikini and a sunny yellow tote and march yourself down to the nearest beach.

Chic Deac Holiday?
Deacon Discount Days might as well be a holiday for Chic Deac. Sure, there is lots of junk like XXXL women's volleyball shirts from 1997, but there are also some great finds if you have the patience to dig. We always get some good stuff. There are particularly good men's polos there and jerseys in case anyone in your life could use one of those. Word on the street is that there are really cute coffee thermoses. Go check it and maybe you'll even see Chic Deac up there ...

Keeping Time
We don't need watches to tell us the time anymore, but they sure are a stylish accessory. The Tourista Watch with a black strap is not for the faint of heart. We love the clunky charms and the ability to wear it in different ways - it goes with a cocktail dress or jeans and a t-shirt.

How adorable is this clutch? We are loving the big dots and it's big enough to hold everything you have got to carry with you for a night out - phone, camera, keys and a debit card.

SO. MUCH. FRATTING.
Be back on Monday.

Thanks Jo
You made blogging so easy for us this morning! We missed these Penguin Classic Book Covers on Cup of Jo yesterday, but they certainly brightened up our morning. We want. We want. We want.
Secret Garden is our Favorite design, but we've always been an Austenite. Maybe we'll just get the whole collection. Happy reading, chic ones!
