Bridal Inspiration {Shoes}

In dreamland, my bridal shoes would be Miu Miu, McQueen, Jimmy Choo or Louboutin. Dream with me, won’t you? This is if I go the more traditional route…I will have to devote an entire post to non-traditional shoes.

I am in love with these delicate dresses and gorgeous photographs featuring gowns from the Claire La Faye “Dream a little dream” collection and shot by Lavanda Memory. Did I mention the price range is $1,100-$1,600 and they can be found at Lovely in NYC (I’ll be there in two weeks!).

Bridal Inspiration {Bridesmaids}

I’ve always wanted to go the non-traditional route of having bridesmaids in a white or cream or butter or blush. A color very close to the wedding dress. The problem is, it’s much harder to find the right dress because there aren’t as many options.

The below are lovely, but of course are from Net-A-Porter. Anyway for inspiration…

New Week, New Year

After all of the celebrations, it is finally time to come back to work. I’m sorry it’s been so long since I last posted. With the engagement and the holidays, it’s been crazy! I can’t believe I am going to start planning a wedding now. I’ll try not to gush over it too much. But…I can’t promise anything.
