Dress of the Week

Posted on April 26, 2013 by glitter&pearls

I’m blown away by this beautifully orchestrated wedding inspired by Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” All of the whimsical elements came together perfectly in this simple and sweet wedding, but of course, I’m ever drawn to the fashion, and this bride’s delicate English net and lace gown and floral crown had me immediately. I’m currently dreaming up ways to combine headbands and flower crowns.

I actually featured the picture-perfect {sparkly} shoes from this destination wedding on the Amalfi Coast earlier in the week, but I kept coming back to the bride’s simple and stunning Ivy & Aster wedding dress, and I knew I had to share. The dress is breathtaking and the bride’s choice to pair it with a slim gold bow belt and rich pink lipstick is surprising and perfect.

The couple is also ridiculously sweet, and all of their photos are bursting with the obvious love between them. I heart cute couples.

I love the look of a bold statement necklace paired with a wedding dress, and this one, full of Old Hollywood charm and lots of bling is just my type. Diamonds are, of course, a girl’s best friend.

Uber Fashionable Bridesmaids Gifts

Posted on September 3, 2012 by glitter&pearls

Chriselle is a blogger (she blogs over at The Chriselle Factor) and her wedding was every inch feminine, full of flowers, delicate desserts, blushes, peaches, lace + gold accents — very much her style. But more than the gorgeous wedding – which I admit – I fell for immediately – it was the adorable (and fashionable) gift that she gave her bridesmaids that had my jaw dropping. Chriselle had custom monogram bridesmaid rings a la Jennifer Zeuner designed for each of her bridesmaids. And to top it off, the gold monogrammed rings were nestled inside macaroon jewelry boxes. Fabulous-ness overload.
