Creative romantic necklines...

Hi Ladies,
A fellow etsy lover found these on etsy and sent me the link and I just had to share.
Magdalinen's neck dressings are so gorgeous and stunningly romantic that I can't see how any funky brides out there would not want to take a page from her book or just buy something from her lovely etsy store. I know I would, so I thought I would pass it along. Check out the store at www.etsy.com/shop/magdalinen. The best thing about her items is that they really can be used by anyone, and for lots of occasions or non occassions. In addition to that, though, this is a great way to add funk to your bridal outfit if you are on a budget and want to do something fun, quick and easy, but make a splash. My guess is that you can get any of these in any colors you want so what's not to love :)? Thanks Myca, great find :)!!!

Eye catching headpieces...

So I found these really cool headpieces on etsy at what has now become one of my favorite Etsy stores. Portobello is an environmentaly friendly designer who knows how to take risks and blend unique materials and colors to produce eye catching results for the bride who wants a headpiece that speaks boldly but with style...check out more pieces at www.etsy.com/shop/portobello. These are also great because of the versatility since the fascinators do not have to be confined to wedding wear and can be worn again on other occasions. Most of these can be separated from the birdcage for a more casual look. Pretty awesome I think. Check them out!

Gatsbyesque Glamour!

Hi All,
Happy New Year!!! This is my first entry of the year so I thought I would share these gorgeous jewelry pieces. They are inspired by the great gatsby era and I think they are fantastic. I love all the vintage looks, as well as the fact that they are color friendly. Check out Noaki's pieces at www.etsy.com/shop/Noaki for more.

Ties anyone?

So I don't know about you but I am all about anything unique and gorgeous and I have to say that this is not just a brilliant idea but a wonderful way to recycle as well. These dreses would be an awesome choice for the off beat bride, or even for the bride that wants her bridesmaids decked out along with her...I think they are gorgeous and you sure as heck would not have to worry about how unique you are, as the dresses say it all :). Enjoy and take a look at www.etsy.com/shop/glamarita for more. Personally I couldn't get enough :). Thanks Ronnie for such a great treat.
