The easiest transformation you can also make is via jackets, boleros, capelets, shawls. The above dress with an asymmetrical neckline I can totally see once upon a time as a strapless now with an overlay of tulle added to the shoulder. Below, an overblouse/capelet was added to a strapless.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TV9D_50aQ50/UOCgG1FXjWI/AAAAAAAAxdk/pdCebr8VS3Y/s1600/alvina-valenta-bridal-strapless-sweetheart-fit-flare-pleated-dropped-jeweled-floral-natural-silk-organza-9208_zm+(1).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TV9D_50aQ50/UOCgG1FXjWI/AAAAAAAAxdk/pdCebr8VS3Y/s1600/alvina-valenta-bridal-strapless-sweetheart-fit-flare-pleated-dropped-jeweled-floral-natural-silk-organza-9208_zm+(1).jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-978S_OUGFPU/UOCiAq-ezoI/AAAAAAAAxeQ/anZhILaaA_0/s1600/576909_10151430664435744_523520799_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="314" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-978S_OUGFPU/UOCiAq-ezoI/AAAAAAAAxeQ/anZhILaaA_0/s640/576909_10151430664435744_523520799_n.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151430664435744&set=pb.69730480743.-2207520000.1356898597&type=3&theater">Alvina Valenta</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021578250331836144.post-91053023559546073842012-12-31T00:00:00.000-08:002013-01-02T05:59:53.447-08:00REAL WEDDING: MEGAN AND DOUG<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F2272IeVavs/UNprCpPSPEI/AAAAAAAAxMo/DkV7ijUoO7Y/s1600/Swink_Brown_Alea_Lovely_Fine_Art_Photographer_swinkwedding49_low.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-F2272IeVavs/UNprCpPSPEI/AAAAAAAAxMo/DkV7ijUoO7Y/s1600/Swink_Brown_Alea_Lovely_Fine_Art_Photographer_swinkwedding49_low.jpg" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; color: #4d4d4d; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: start;">Megan and Doug are Kansas City locals who met at work, where they both are cancer researchers. The wedding consisted of their close family and friends in the historic Pilgrim Chapel in Kansas City, Missouri. Afterwards they had a very decorated, upbeat party at a popular restaurant, Californos, in the heart of Westport. A very neat part of the day was when the groom proposed to the bride without an initial ring (with plans to pick one) but the bride hadn’t found one she liked so she wore a band instead until they found the perfect ring. Once found, Kaitlyn decided that she wouldn't wear the diamond ring until the wedding day and was adamant about not letting anyone see it until the unveiling at the ceremony. It was a wonderful twist on a tradition.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-0W1yS2COUsg/UNpstBzbOXI/AAAAAAAAxNE/sspvV5KBN7U/s1600/Swink_Brown_Alea_Lovely_Fine_Art_Photographer_swinkwedding9_low.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Did you know the big bouffant skirts of the early 1960s were about as far as you could get fashionwise from the close of the era when everyone was embracing the mini-skirt and white Courrèges' boots?

This shoot is another stunner by Alea Lovely concentrating on all those imaginative and charming elements we look for to make design and decor unique. Said Alea about putting this all together,"<i> We shot on the Longview Mansion’s grounds that had a lot of rustic structures we could work with along with the great overgrown grass. With the vision I had to shoot it I just couldn’t find a dress that matched the feeling of what we were going for so I made the dress to capture thewhimsical direction we were headed for and used color in the dress inspired by the latest fashion trend of using color in bridal. The florist used her great-grandmother’s amazing pink antique depression glass as centerpieces and accents to the flowers and cake. The cake decorator used a brush-like texture on the buttercream to give it a nest-like look. The furniture rentals used were great rustic pieces like old wooden crates, old dress trunks, rusted keys and this great wide bottom over-sized chair that looks like it came straight from the set of Alice and Wonderland. The pergola was a great accent location in front of the water for something a little different. . . . ."</i></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7I7-n_ldyBw/UNUtglWvGyI/AAAAAAAAxHs/Vkcc67FKfRM/s1600/alea1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="text-align: center;">Here's a little preview of what Chicago-based designer Alice Padrul has in store for 2013. For those of you who aren't familiar with Alice, one of her signature talents is incorporating incredible novelty-style laces in her pieces. Her pieces are also light as air in look and feel--something I know a brides likes on her wedding day. This collab with Photographer, Lidia Cordean (who took most of the photos) is breathtaking and downright gorgeous--the perfect eye candy the day after Christmas to get you dreaming of Spring . . . .</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Goes a long way. I'm just a sucker for all those winter touches in red and green with a bit of snow thrown in. Ivy and red berries are make gorgeous bouquets this time of year (or any time of year for that matter). Throw a bit of pine in and you have a real Winter bouquet. The head wreath below of ivy and roses works summer and winter both; and of course who wouldn't love to ride in a one-horse open sleigh . . . .?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W_DE8_YFFtI/UMV2VwyJM9I/AAAAAAAAwdU/XUkiFi46hmk/s1600/xmas4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-W_DE8_YFFtI/UMV2VwyJM9I/AAAAAAAAwdU/XUkiFi46hmk/s640/xmas4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rtBAPzMRAS4/UMV3f7UETgI/AAAAAAAAweE/-8BJ1GANZew/s1600/254805291388987664_4LA3P68O_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rtBAPzMRAS4/UMV3f7UETgI/AAAAAAAAweE/-8BJ1GANZew/s1600/254805291388987664_4LA3P68O_c.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b_DMOhqGYH8/UMV2XxMqgbI/AAAAAAAAwdc/e9mXEz2_n1w/s1600/xmas1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b_DMOhqGYH8/UMV2XxMqgbI/AAAAAAAAwdc/e9mXEz2_n1w/s640/xmas1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6v-oM0V7veE/UMV38YXqg6I/AAAAAAAAweU/XoFlNP7PqVE/s1600/-595_3$!600x.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6v-oM0V7veE/UMV38YXqg6I/AAAAAAAAweU/XoFlNP7PqVE/s1600/-595_3$!600x.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qCmVMN8ffU8/UMV2aF_z5rI/AAAAAAAAwdk/6yN6E_osg9c/s1600/xmas2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-qCmVMN8ffU8/UMV2aF_z5rI/AAAAAAAAwdk/6yN6E_osg9c/s640/xmas2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s-u0v1J0_bU/UMV4dHzzMTI/AAAAAAAAwec/-ftK5ET5hK0/s1600/201747258277092009_NSRyP4ab_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-s-u0v1J0_bU/UMV4dHzzMTI/AAAAAAAAwec/-ftK5ET5hK0/s1600/201747258277092009_NSRyP4ab_c.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Top Photos: </b>Left: Berries in watering can <a href="http://myinnerlandscape.tumblr.com/">Tumblr</a> via <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/254805291389000676/">Pinterest/</a> Right: Vintage Bouffant Bridal Gown and head wear by <a href="http://www.amyjotatum.com/">Amy-Jo Tatum</a> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Head wreath photo</b> by<a href="http://www.studio13designs.net/"> Studio 13 Designs</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Candy cane flowers photo</b> via <a href="http://www.projectwedding.com/post/list/christmas-color-scheme">Project Wedding</a>/<b> Rum Balls photo</b> via <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/254805291388972898/">Pinterest</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Fur jacket and flowers photo </b>by <a href="http://markbrooke.com/">Mark Brooke</a> via <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/gallery/picture/14308">Style Me Pretty Gallery</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Barn in the snow photo </b>by<a href="http://www.partridgebrookreflections.com/"> Partridge Brooke Reflections</a> /<b>One horse open sleigh photo </b>by <a href="http://nicksokoloff.com/">Nick Sokoloff </a> via <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/gallery/picture/48813">Style Me Pretty</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Square berry wreath photo</b> by <a href="http://www.redoitdesign.com/2011/12/14/christmas-2011-wreaths-that-welcome/">Redo It Design</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021578250331836144.post-75982662454382982242012-12-19T00:00:00.000-08:002013-01-02T05:59:53.427-08:00IT'S A WRAP!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_p2PZMUlJbE/UMYhSRc-QiI/AAAAAAAAwik/lJWcWdFyQEk/s1600/173247916885032957_JHvX4uBb_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-_p2PZMUlJbE/UMYhSRc-QiI/AAAAAAAAwik/lJWcWdFyQEk/s1600/173247916885032957_JHvX4uBb_c.jpg" /></a></div>Now that we're into sub-zero temps in some climes, here's a little more on wrapping up. Check out these wraps, boleros and stoles for staying warm and chic once the snow gets going. It's a real cinch to add a bit of elegance to the overall look you're creating when you add fur (real, friendly or faux). FYI if you're wondering, friendly furs come to us by way of feathers (birds) and lamb fur that's simply shorn off the beast every summer so the creature won't sweat to death. I ran across the bottom images in <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/gallery/">SMP's Gallery</a> and put together this inspiration board to help you along. I'd love to hear via comments from any bride-to-be out there planning a wedding or holiday bash in the snow complete with ideas for wrapping herself up . . . .<br /><img class="smp-iboard" id="smp-board-120231" src="http://isa2.stylemepretty.com/wp-content/gallery/ibb/amyjotatum/ibb-1355161427.5127.23694.jpg" title="Board #120231" /><script src="http://cache.stylemepretty.com/customweb/pages/gallery/js/iboverlay.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script src="http://cache.stylemepretty.com/customweb/pages/gallery/js/iboverlay.js" type="text/javascript"></script><br /><span style="background-color: #fce5cd;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Header Photo:</b> <span style="color: #211922; line-height: 17.53333282470703px;"><a href="http://www.bhldn.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/imageLibrary.viewImageDetails/imageLibraryImageID/d616da5b-8225-4361-987e-844df79dee62/categoryID/e7545064-4aae-47ce-8caa-2cdacc9a874e/publicGallery/true">BHLDN</a> Kayleigh Gown and ostrich feather wrap. </span></span></span><br /><span style="background-color: #fce5cd;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 17.53333282470703px;"><b><span style="color: #666666;">Row 2:</span> </b><span style="color: #211922;">Sequined Wrap:</span><a href="http://www.delesieblog.com/" style="color: #211922;"> </a></span><span style="color: #505050; line-height: 18px; text-transform: capitalize;"><a href="http://www.delesieblog.com/">Aaron Delesie Photographer</a>/Fur wrap photo by</span><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><span style="line-height: 18px; text-transform: capitalize;"> </span><a class="gallert_credit_link" href="http://theyoungrens.com/" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;">The Youngrens</a></span><span style="color: #999999;">--</span>dress by <a href="http://www.oscardelarenta.com/">Oscar de la Renta</a></span></span><br /><span style="background-color: #fce5cd;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Last Row: </b> Left Photo: <span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;">Photography: </span><span style="color: #999999;"><a href="http://www.leahkua.com/" style="line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Leah Kua</a><span style="line-height: 18px;"> </span></span><span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;">Wedding Dress: </span><a href="http://www.amandagarrett.com/" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Amanda Garrett</a><span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;"> / </span><span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;">Bride’s </span><span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;">Accessories:</span><a href="http://www.alannahhill.com.au/" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Alannah Hill</a>/ Right Photo:<span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;">Wedding Photography: </span><a href="http://rayaphotography.com/" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank">Raya Carlisle Photography</a>/<span style="color: #7d7d7d; line-height: 18px;"> </span></span></span><br /><br />adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021578250331836144.post-80374301852758732812012-12-18T00:00:00.000-08:002013-01-02T05:59:53.436-08:00WINTER PINK<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>When I was a kid the Sears Christmas Catalog was a big deal for me and each year round about Labor Day I couldn't wait for it to get here. Of course I cruised the toy department over and over till the "Wish Book" as it used to be called was dogeared to death. When I reached my teens, the junior clothes replaced the toys. Winter pastels were the thing when I was in high school. This meant sweaters, plaid skirts, mufflers and gloves in lavenders, blues and of course pink. Looking at the inspirations here, pastels may be just the thing for this winter. I found the ice pink tones here a great add on for everything from decor, table settings to fashion. And if you're looking for real estate don't miss the pink house in the bottom image. A real gemmie . . . .<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0KMQlzArMZ4/UMV8osf-EFI/AAAAAAAAwgc/nUoQK9K43uI/s1600/ibb-1352958832.3788.21533.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

This could be your engagement party, New Years celebration or even a Christmas wedding planned on the fly (yes I do get a couple spur of the moment brides every year). I'm curious, what kind of winter celebration would you put together using the rustic and snow theme . . . .?</span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">CREDITS</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Cake and Pine Cone Photo (Top) </b><span style="color: #837d7d; line-height: 18px;"><b> </b></span><a class="gallert_credit_link" href="http://blyndadacosta.com/" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;">Blynda DaCosta Photography</a><span style="color: #837d7d;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">/</span></span><span style="color: #837d7d; line-height: 18px;">Flowers By / </span><a class="gallert_credit_link" href="http://rufflesandtwine.ca/" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;">Ruffles & Twin</a>e/<span style="color: #837d7d; line-height: 18px;">Event Design By / </span><a class="gallert_credit_link" href="http://ephraeventdesign.com/Site/home.html" style="color: #4f969f; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: initial;">eph*ra event design</a>/Via <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/"><i>Style Me Pretty</i></a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Hair Ornament </b>from <a href="http://www.oncewed.com/61193/diy-wedding/accessories/diy-gold-wedding-hair-accessories/"><i>Once Wed</i></a>/ <b>Pine Cone and Wheat Bouquet</b> from<i> <a href="http://rusticweddingchic.com/park-city-utah-rustic-wedding">Rustic Wedding Chic</a></i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Mannequin Photo</b> by <a href="http://vignettesantiques.blogspot.com/2011/12/brilliant-tour-de-force.html">Vignettes Antiques</a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>Snow and Brich Tree Photo</b> by <span style="color: #211922; line-height: 17.53333282470703px;"><a href="http://www.arthurelgort.com/">Arthur Elgort</a> via Pinterest</span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; color: #211922; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; line-height: 17.53333282470703px;"><b>Basket of Pine Cones </b>from<a href="http://la-petite-cuisine.blogspot.fi/"><i> La Petite Cuisine</i></a></span></div>adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021578250331836144.post-80156787288462801772012-12-12T00:00:00.000-08:002013-01-02T05:59:53.435-08:00REAL WEDDINGS: EMILY AND PAUL<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GERCLYODK-A/UMTVYepuF8I/AAAAAAAAwQg/-zlv55-ISrs/s1600/Jackson_Johnson_Dan_and_Melissa__Wedding_Photographers_EmilyandPaulAlbum102_low.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GERCLYODK-A/UMTVYepuF8I/AAAAAAAAwQg/-zlv55-ISrs/s1600/Jackson_Johnson_Dan_and_Melissa__Wedding_Photographers_EmilyandPaulAlbum102_low.jpg" /></span></a></div><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When this wedding came through my inbox I was particularly intrigued by the story behind the dress. Emily married Paul in her late mother's wedding dress, a stunning and classic A-line with the bodice covered in Venise laces. This is another wedding by one of my fave photographer duos, <a href="http://danandmelissa.tc/">Dan and Melissa </a>from Michigan. The backdrops of their weddings against bay and lake are always so picturesque. Said Melissa about photographing the wedding:<i> </i><i>"<span style="color: #4d4d4d;">Paul and</span><span style="color: #4d4d4d;"> </span><span style="color: #4d4d4d;">Emily, both doctors, were wed on a raining day in June. The day was perfect with two reveals (first looks), one being between the bride and her father as she wore her late mothers wedding dress and the next between the bride and the groom to be. Two very special and emotional moments. Later at the reception the bride changed into a gorgeous short wedding dress so she could dance the night away. Ice cream sundaes were the dessert of choice and very fitting to their style."</span></i></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tud_h5QToLo/UMTVsw7oKEI/AAAAAAAAwQw/vPxUGpVIH5k/s1600/Jackson_Johnson_Dan_and_Melissa__Wedding_Photographers_EmilyandPaulAlbum6_low.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Check out the crocheted laces and roses in blush pinks and soft yellows. And of course there's the country backdrop. The photography was done by Kristy Mason of Figtree Pictures. Said Kristy about photographing this styled shoot: <i>"</i></span><span style="color: #4d4d4d;"><i>This shoot was so incredibly fun. I started dreaming of how I would do my wedding again if I could... and if I could... it would be just like this : We headed down to Byron Bay on a gloriously sunny Autumn day. Peachy Vintage styled the day and prepared all of the gorgeous florals, including the bride's headpiece and bouquet. Casey's ideas and themes were brilliant! Jennifer Gifford supplied not one but two... that's right... two amazingly beautiful dresses. Paper Dolls crafted the wonderful stationery and table settings and seating plans, perfectly matched with the theme of the day. Leah from Wedding Hair by Leah was our incredible hair and makeup stylist. The deliciously decadent cake was shipped in (OK, not literally shipped in!) by from Charlotte at Let Them Eat Cake. The wonderful models were Levi and Dayna....how stunning are they!? ...and of course the superb location was 'Fig Tree Restaurant' in Byron Bay.

Somehow women (that includes brides) managed under all the stress of war to keep every hair in place.

From the bright yellow flowers to the vintage Caddy that lent such a retro feel to the event, the setting was on the water in Northern Michigan with incredible views of lake and fall colors. A detail I particularly love were pillows and blankets set by a fireplace to keep guests warm. The blankets were handmade by Kevin's grand-mom and pillows done up by Laura's mom and friend. Shot by the talented duo of <a href="http://danandmelissa.tc/">Dan and Melissa Wedding Photographers</a>, here's what Melissa had to say: <i>"</i></span><span style="color: #4d4d4d; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>Laura and Kevin were an amazing couple. We had a great time sharing in this special day with them. Laura knows what she wants and makes it happen. It was a cold, windy and rainy day but that didn't stop this outdoor wedding from being perfect. All the guests got good use out of their umbrellas waiting for the bride to walk down the aisle. And just as she did the sun peaked from behind the clouds adding the perfect touch to this beautiful wedding. They were all smiles as they said their vows beneath a shared umbrella, light sprinkles and gorgeous sun rays streaking between partly cloudy skies. Let's not forget about Papa and his vintage 1940s Cadillac which caught the eyes of many guests and passersby. Of course nothing was a stunning to look at then the blushing bride."</i></span></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-sZosNGaeqz8/UL7rHUyYGkI/AAAAAAAAv8c/XgkW5-Moc_A/s1600/Shepherd_Smith_Dan_and_Melissa__Wedding_Photographers_KevinandLaura1262_low.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

This styled shoot made its way into my inbox while I was having tea yesterday afternoon with one of my favorite San Francisco wedding photographers who just flipped once she got a glimpse of this editorial. Shot by <a href="http://www.brittanydow.com/">Brittany Dow</a>, an<i> ah mazing</i> California photographer, these light-filled images are just so darn inspiring. She said about the shoot: <i>" I just love all things Boho and rustic and wanted to create a styled shoot that incorporating easy DIY elements. We managed to keep everything DIY and include vendors with handmade items. Loving the simple uniquness of the bridal dress and the rustic elements of the flower crown, the shoe clips added a touch of femininity. We created the ribbon wall with tea dyed ripped bed sheets and made the tent out of a wood frame and some blankets. We loved the way all the elements came together to inspire brides with easy and quick DIY projects with the Boho or rustic themed wedding in mind."</i></span></span><br /><span style="background-color: white;

If I could be granted one wish before I die--(or maybe once I'm dead--I have no idea how these para-norm things work) it would be to travel back in time so I could actually get a touch and feel of an era. I think I'd start in the 1930s. Why? Can you think of any time fashion was so elegant, almost minimalist than the 30s? </span><span style="color: #6b7c80; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.766666412353516px;">The body-hugging bias cut was still a new invention and believe it or not, radical concept. <i><b><a href="http://www.onewed.com/blog">READ MORE . . . </a></b></i></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyfq3VIELaM/ULJw2gC9mdI/AAAAAAAAvbA/s4U5yBXLXzg/s1600/254805291387734432_6RtE0X4p_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Lyfq3VIELaM/ULJw2gC9mdI/AAAAAAAAvbA/s4U5yBXLXzg/s1600/254805291387734432_6RtE0X4p_c.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021578250331836144.post-76368887794985217922012-11-29T00:00:00.000-08:002013-01-02T05:59:53.428-08:00ODE TO THE RED HEADED BRIDE<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vjIf2ZETNwM/ULWkATsEfOI/AAAAAAAAviY/rpBXUqFsi9s/s1600/147915168981481191_p68WP5bb_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vjIf2ZETNwM/ULWkATsEfOI/AAAAAAAAviY/rpBXUqFsi9s/s1600/147915168981481191_p68WP5bb_c.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://designcollector.net/joanna-kustra-photography/">source</a></div><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; color: #6b7c80; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.78333282470703px;">Redheads come in all shades: auburn, ginger, cinnamon, chestnut, henna, strawberry blond, carrot top. Hair isn't the only thing that characterizes a real redhead though. Fair, sometimes alabaster skin with a peach undertone and freckles are all hallmark of the quintessential Celtic beauty, marking shades like ivory, peach and eggshell a redhead's best pick. So why are these yellow tones best? A redheaded complexion is most likely fair and pale ergo most whites and stark whites will wash out the complexion. On the other hand, ivory and eggshell tones will warm up skin tone and once they're put on do seem to belong to redheads exclusively. Silk whites--which is to say off or muted whites like the shade in the header photo and second photo below can work for the bride with red hair as long as they stay fairly matte or muted . . . </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q4k7jPRyYC8/ULWkpCI2zZI/AAAAAAAAvig/61qF4FAWdw0/s1600/254805291387288036_ZJpyPxn1_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q4k7jPRyYC8/ULWkpCI2zZI/AAAAAAAAvig/61qF4FAWdw0/s1600/254805291387288036_ZJpyPxn1_c.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.onewed.com/blog/show/the-all-white-wedding">source</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2iUWBywxoQw/ULWpBT5Co4I/AAAAAAAAvks/JmY_aAYYsEw/s1600/redhead2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="464" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2iUWBywxoQw/ULWpBT5Co4I/AAAAAAAAvks/JmY_aAYYsEw/s640/redhead2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Left: via<a href="http://www.weddingchicks.com/2012/05/25/shabby-chic-engagment-session/"> The Wedding Chicks</a>/ Right: via<a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/254805291389003217/"> Pinterest</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Q6cpjH5MVxY/ULWltz75RHI/AAAAAAAAvi4/Vfo3EVNdTao/s1600/il_570xN.252633892.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Q6cpjH5MVxY/ULWltz75RHI/AAAAAAAAvi4/Vfo3EVNdTao/s1600/il_570xN.252633892.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/rschone?ref=pr_shop_more"> rshone</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3sjxYkIVzig/ULWlx81VoOI/AAAAAAAAvjA/WeRdXAJanio/s1600/il_570xN.252606697.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3sjxYkIVzig/ULWlx81VoOI/AAAAAAAAvjA/WeRdXAJanio/s1600/il_570xN.252606697.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BNckwtaIFb0/ULWpMX1ZwKI/AAAAAAAAvk0/gVNUO6Z1-Ks/s1600/redhead1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="468" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BNckwtaIFb0/ULWpMX1ZwKI/AAAAAAAAvk0/gVNUO6Z1-Ks/s640/redhead1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Left: Via <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/254805291388971134/">Pinterest</a>/Right: via <a href="http://www.sibodesigns.com/about/">Sibo Designs</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ozLrKVwh468/ULWptZjxWcI/AAAAAAAAvlE/1b8MbGxLogk/s1600/78390849734841434_J0CiZLdQ_c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ozLrKVwh468/ULWptZjxWcI/AAAAAAAAvlE/1b8MbGxLogk/s1600/78390849734841434_J0CiZLdQ_c.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: #fce5cd; color: #6b7c80; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.78333282470703px;"><a href="http://500px.com/avramfoto">source</a></span></div>adeemsmallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05849612809198582323noreply@blogger.com0
