It has been three days since The Royal Wedding, and I feel like I have finally stopped over obsessing enough to add my two-cents to the whole thing. Like most Americans who planned on watching The Royal Wedding, I set an alarm for 5:30 a.m on Saturday, May 19, 2018. Most streams started at 4 a.m. but I wanted to sleep in a little bit. This was a huge task for me because I probably wouldn't wake up at 5 a.m for my own wedding lol! I started by watching E! Then at around 6 ish, I started watching FOX NEWS. I loved watching all of the family, friends, and celebs walk toward St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle. There are so many MAJOR moments I want to discuss! So let's get started :)

MEGHAN'S DRESS

For a Royal Wedding dress, I feel like Meghan's dress was VERY underwhelming, but at the same time I love the minimalist look of it. I'm very confused on how I feel about the dress. I definitely have a love hate relationship towards it. However, don't get me started on the veil!!!! The 16-ft veil made me forget abut the some what simple dress......And the tiara OMG!! IN LOVE!!

MEGHAN'S HAIR & MAKEUP

I'm in love with the simplicity of her makeup. I loved the fact her freckles were peaking through. Her hair was swept back perfectly and I love that it wasn't perfect. Meghan literally looked like a DREAM!

THE BEST DRESSED GUEST

Guests were advised as to what to wear on their invite: It stated, Men were invited to wear military uniform, morning coats, or lounge suits while women were advised to choose a "day dress with a hat. And as in tradition in the UK, guest were expected to avoid white or black.

#1 Amal Clooney wearing Stella McCartney! It definelty helps that she has her salt and pepper haired hubby George Clooney on her arm. But with out George I would remember this look. Amal literally slayed the royal wedding dress-code.

#2 Meghans mother Doria Ragland in Oscar De Lerenta. This mint coat and dress is just so classy! I was instantly IN LOVE when I saw her get out of the car to greet the priest.

#3 Pippa Middleton in her $495 dress from The Fold. A lot of people have mixed reviews on her dress. Watchers of the wedding claimed that her dress reminded them of Arizona Tea. But for me personally, I love the dress. It fit in perfectly with the amazing weather and summer feel of the wedding.
