Hair adornment of the week

Monday, July 26th, 2010

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.

Accessorize that dress!

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!

~Timeless Beauty~

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I received these images this past month and it’s been a long time since the event, October 2008 to be exact. The pictures tell a story of a classic bride who’s look can stand the test of time. Erin’s derise for classic & vintage has created timeless. This also was the beginning of my broach phase. Erin used one of our broaches that we used in The Bliss Book and it was paired beautifuly with her veil.

Enjoy her beauty and be inspired by her look. I found my inspiration through Bliss and it’s many timeless, classic looks.

We had the magnificent opportunity to do a photo shoot for Travelhost Wedding Guide for Genesee County, MI. Our excitement is that we are in print again after publishing our first work The Bliss Book, now we are proudly on someone else’s cover.

I wanted to share our shoot details with you because we had some great vendors involved and honestly it was a fun time and you might be inspired by the look we created. We had some major last minute venue changes, time restrictions and little time to do this but we pulled it together and rocked.

The venue was the Woodfield Banquet Center in Grand Blanc, MI. This is the location where My Big Fat Genesee Wedding ~ Wedding Show will be held this year, the date is January 24th. It’s a very unique and beautiful facility to have a great wedding. Check it out!

Stay tuned because we will be brining you the details as to where we found our inspiration on how we created both the hair and make-up looks.  Don’t forget to share the love and comment!

It’s Etsy time again and the newest favorite finds.  The stage is set and the spotlight is on The Redheaded Actress. I spotted her sweet adornments, especially her headbands, and had to share the love.

The Redheaded Actress:

My love of crafting began at the ripe old age of three, when my Godmother started teaching me how to use a glue gun. Ever since then, I’ve been crafting up a storm and loving every second of it. When I got engaged, I put my crafting savvy to use to save us money and make our wedding as unique as we are, which kicked my crafting love into overdrive!

Check out her headbands for the everyday girl or for bridesmaids.  We have also paired her accessories with some suggested looks from Bliss.  Don’t forget to comment.  xoxo

~Something Blue~

So I have to tell you I got the best christmas present.  I had a thought/question when I was showing it to one of my friends,  why had they made it in Blue.   Duh, it’s something blue.

Tiffany’s is one of my most favorite jewelry places on earth.  But sadly,  only can afford the little bobbles of Tiffany’s.  I got the catalog right around Thanksgiving and I was just  going to throw it away, beyond budget I thought.  But I had to peak…There it was in Blue, a necklace I had seen & loved,  on a waitress when I was visiting in NY.  But her’s of course may had been a diamond, they do have the swanky platinum & diamond versions.  But this necklace is so dainty and simple & I loved the blue much better.

I am introducing it to all of you,  because it can be such a great gift to a bride…Hey brides,  such a great gift to yourself.  The price of $125, can’t beat that.   They also have a bracelet to match.  I think I am on a mission for that next, can we say Birthday present.

It’s your something simple and blue….Check it out you will love it!!!
