My dearest Emily. I touched on this story briefly in a previous post . When preparing for my dear friend on her wedding day, I was so pleased that she chose us to capture it and make her more beautiful. I am just now seeing the finished product my sister passed along. How beautiful she turned out.
Her hair was meant to be low and loose. We planned a little together, as we are both stylists. Allowing the side of her hair that is swept to one side to be over her open shoulder. The flower was a suggestion of mine not knowing it was already chosen to also to be an accent in her bouquet. One was perfect for her small frame.
Don’t forget you can always grow your own orchid. Happy hair inspiration!

Put a pretty bow on it! This piece is special and one of a kind, with a little vintage flair. I love how it’s simply placed in her loose waves. Another suggested loose wave option from The Bliss Book, shown below, would go perfectly with the ”Celeste” Hair Clip.

While planning for a 1950s themed wedding we came up with some inspiration to fuel the brain fire and to give vision to our bride. My sister and I came up with our suggestions separately and we have a beautiful palate of choices. There are many staple looks in the 1950s but there are still many choices to be incorporated into one look.
The look was soft loose waves, with a swoops & sometimes a victory roll. There were so many versions and a lot is deciphered by the texture of the hair. If it was up it was defiantly elegant as Audrey Hepburn wore it in her classic french twist.
Women could get away with a more dramatic look, particularly for evening.
Eyeliner was liquid, making a sharp, highly defined contour. It was used primarily on the upper lid.
Pastels were the favored colors for day, especially for a younger woman.
Women could wear red by day and it was the most popular choice for evening.
Lips were colored lush and full.

I just wanted to stay on Peppermint Pretty’s site to listen to the great music while I drooled over dresses. I love playing the game of matching hairstyles, dress & accessory. The center of inspiration for this post, is the dress. You usually always begin first with your dress then the accessory & your hair most of the time will follow. You can go full fledge vintage with this dress choice or throw in a bit of modern.
The hairstyles of choice range from swept back with softness, classic french with a twist, straight up victory roll with pin curls & down with an edge of vintage. Adorn any one of these hairstyles with fun choice pics below of some of my favorite artist. Click on the pic to visit their sweet adornments and Peppermint Pretty to find your dress!

From the location, to the dresses, to two of our models being from Ypsilanti, MI we are proud to represent. We are all growing businesses, striving and are strong women.
We had the great privilege to shoot at Beezy’s cafe in Ypsilanti, MI. Simple, honest food is their quote. Such good food it is! What a great place to visit and great surroundings to shoot in. Go visit, you will be addicted!
The dresses came from Leslie Austin a local dress designer. You may often see them as you drive down Michigan Avenue in the windows of her store Lezley Anne. They are all uniquely different and so much fun. Thank you Lezley for dressing our models!
We love our models and a big, big thank you to Kelsey, Nia and Katie!!! xoxo

Bringing back some old school inspiration. Classic beauties can never loose their luster. I love old movies, the dresses, the hair. She’s just beautiful and think of how not airbrushed this picture is. The look of her hair is clean and elegant, perfectly framing her face. Leaving a little opening at the top for an accessory or flower.

Inspiration~Prep for Travelhost Wedding Guide cover shoot Imagine Three Photography
To die for hair! Big bun was what I heard from my bride and no fear she had of it. In fact, the bigger the better. I was so excited to see the pictures and her photographer JCL Portraits so graciously allowed me to snag some of her great shots. She has managed to capture the brides fun style, but elegant hot bun love.
The inspiration from this look came from our Travelhost Wedding Guide cover shot. Changed, altered and perfected to suit her on her special day. Happy hair inspiration to you!
Visit JCL Potraits Blog to see more pictures from the wedding day.
