Tobi or not Tobi?

I've recently been contacted by tobi.com an online fashion retailer to partner with them.  Tobi.com are a lot like asos.com with the different range of clothes and beauty products they have to offer.  They are based in San Francisco but ship internationally - good for those of my readers (and myself!) who live in the UK or Europe!  They stock some great designers such as Acne, BCBGMAXAZARIA, Alice + Olivia and Ella Moss.  

Without even thinking I jumped at the chance, and what's more, you can also get a benefit from it!  Tobi.com have been very generous and are offering myself and all my readers 20% off their online boutique all year round!  I decided to look through the site and pick out my favourite finds that I thought you might enjoy.  

Acne Halo Wedges $699/£435

I love Spring and Summer shoes, they are always interesting and gorgeous.  I am a big fan of wedges and would love to own a pair of these bad boys!

Grey Antics Split Back Dress $198/£123

I love the 80s feel to this dress with the extremely deadly shoulder padding. I also like the colour and the material looks quite suedey!

Nixon Watch Pink $60/£38

I'm a sucker for pink, so when I saw this watch I cooed in delight.  

Vena Cava Viva Vena! Hustler Printed Mesh Combo Dress $275/£171

I saw this and thought of tinkerbell, minus the fairytale green.  It is also very ballerina chic!

Grey Antics Sidewinder Cutout Leggings $77/£48

I never wear anything but leggings or tights, so I like to mix it up a bit every now and then.  These would make for a perfect going out look with perhaps a bright coloured pair of heels to add a bit of 'pop'.

Now for the exciting bit, you can get 20% off everything on the site, all year round simply by quoting my discount code 'NONOPTIONAL20' at the checkout.  Even better, if you happen to forget the code then just check the discount code on the left sidebar of my blog!  So what are you waiting for?

"But I guess its always been that way- wanting to be loved... to find someone that makes your heart ache in a good way" - B.Davis

Long time lovers of Tree Hill gathered in holy matrimony to witness the wedding we've been waiting 8 seasons for.  You got it, Brooke Davis (Sophia Bush) finally tied the knot to her beau, Julian (Austin Nichols).

The topic of discussion for this special blog is what every girl talks about on her wedding day. The dress.  For all you non Tree Hills - Brooke is a fashion designer for her massive label 'Clothes over Bro's' and its been a Tree Hill tradition that she makes the dresses for each wedding.  She made Haleys wedding dress and her best friends Peytons, but oddly, she didn't make her own.

The dress was designed by BCBG Max Azria, although Sophia also pitched in on when it came down to designing B.Davis' dream dress.  The design is a simple elegant mermaid dress in white with a crystal brooch, cinching in her waist.  See the dress in action below from about three minutes in.

8.13 The Other Half of Me

My favourite dress aside from Brooke's was Quinns.  I wish I could find a better picture, what I can tell you is that the dress was above the knee in length and this gorgeous mauve colour.  The neckline and sleeves are a chiffon fabric creating a divide between the two fabrics making it seem like a dress and a cover up.  

Here are some wedding photos taken by Quinn for us girls to coo over. Oh, I love a good wedding!

(If you were wondering, the chemistry is real, Sophia and Austin are very much an item)
