Happy 2011!
I know we have been gone for awhile but, we were off enjoying the holiday season! We're back now and ready to tackle a new year.
In this months post we are going to talk about how to "Pair it Up". Of course I am talking about dresses and shoes.
Taking a look at some of the Spring 2011 trends we have put together some dress and shoe pairings for four bride "types".
Traditional
Our traditional bride is longing for the lace, bows and taffeta. It's going to be white and if there's an accent color it's strictly pastel. Think Shelby in "Steel Magnolias".
Our Gown Choice:
This beautiful gown made by Bonny style #042 is a beautiful mix of what the traditional bride wants. A sweetheart bodice that leads down into a luxuriously full ball skirt. This dress is accented by beaded lace and a cathedral train.
Our Shoe Choice:
Simple but elegant white satin shoe by
Benjamin Walk, (makers of Liz Rene Couture, Touch Ups and Johnathan Kayne, and Dyeables). Perfect choice for a more traditional bride.
Modern
Our Modern Bride is ready to hit the ground running. She has discussed, with her planner, the ways the wedding can be more "green" and has made sure that local produce will be used for the reception dinner.
Our Gown Choice:
This light and flowy gown by Bonny style #048, is perfect for our modern bride.A wonderful mix of couture style and clean design. This one shoulder dress drops down into an empire waist and then to an a-line skirt with cathedral train.
Our Shoe Choice: Another wonderful shoe by Benjamin Walk. Strappy but, not over the top with a beautiful symmetrical rhinestone accented diamond design.
Funky
Be ready for anything that this Bride throws at you! She may be arriving atop and elephant with the local high school marching band providing fanfair. Or, you may be set on a city-wide scavenger hunt to find the reception location! You just never know.
Our Gown Choice:
It's the non-traditional color of this dress that appeals to our funky bride. This dress with its strapless bodice, dramatic pick-up skirt and semi-cathedral train it sure to help her make the entrance she is looking for!
Our Shoe Choice:
This bootie, by
Benjamin Walk, adds that bit rock and roll style our Funky Bride is looking for.
Destination
She is ready to start the new adventure of married life with an adventure. She has her passport in hand at all times. She might not even make it to the reception, if she can convince her husband that that 8:00 pm flight to Spain is a better idea!
Our Gown Choice:
A perfect choice for that on the beach in Barbados wedding! This Bonny gown style #052 made from chiffon. Starts at a sweetheart neckline, flows into a beautiful flared skirt and has elegant lack up ties in the back. Accented with a simple rhinestone broach.
Our Shoe Choice:
