Accessorize that dress!

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

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!

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.

Hair Adornment of  the Week

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

oooohhhh la la Velvet Owl!  What a magnificent creation and such a modern twist on the bubble veil. I love it, especially with the flower comb that creates such a beautiful contrast and a secondary option for later when the veil may come off.  The Bubble veil is a favorite because to me is feels like and extension to your hair and adds such beautiful height.   Be interchangeable and have two different looks for your ceremony to reception, this will give you the option.

get_convo_imagephpOh,  to be adorned with veils…so romantic.  I found Veiled Beauty on my favorite place Etsy.  So, how much better can it get for your veil to be handmade with love and be at a great price.  Kathy even will make you a custom veil.  I love her mission:  To please every bride with a tear inducing, breath taking, mother-in-law gasping VEIL!

From the age of 6 I have been windng bobbins and designing in my dreams.  I stumbled upon my first veil creation when I was working for a wedding dress shop in Santa Barbara California.  I made some mock veils forthe mannequins as displays when…low and behold my veils kept selling.

Check out our paired looks below,  from The Bliss Book.  Veiling is the best way to add to you look and feel extra beautiful on your day.

Birdcage…Handmade…Birdcage

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

I was recently at a bridal show and had recommended a bride,  who was looking for a birdcage veil,  to search on Etsy.com. Etsy is the place to buy and sell all things handmade.  I have found a lot of beautiful things on Etsy and some very talented individuals.  I am all about supporting those who use their talents to make beautiful things.  So here are some suggestions for hair adornments from Velvet Owl I love what she does and they are beautifully done.  Click on any one of the picture and it will take you directly to the item.

Perfect match the straight cut dress, high structured hair, striking birdcage with pizzazz.  Even in the back the pins were left.  Girls your Bridal salon will be so helpful in helping you choose your veil/pins and your stylist will be helpful in placing them.  No worries we will help you make your decisions.

She was so beautiful.  This is a veil choice I am loving right now with the flower or you can choose other options.  Her hair was very structured but it allows her face to show, the flower to be showcased and her veil to flow.  So soft and elegant.

Do you have wedding hair fears and questions?

Veiled, unveiled or adorned…

It’s what you dream of, it’s what you envision and it’s who you are.  You may be simple, or complicated, not care at all or you may be very precise about what you desire.  What you place in your hair may also depend on the shape of the hair, the detail, the height.  It can all depend on your dress and it’s details, shape and cut.  OH, all these decisions.  But most of all it’s who you are and what you desire.

Jolie chose simple and classic.  It’s soft like her dress and the simpleness of her hair expresses who she is.   She is a classic beauty.  Less is more.

Sara is structured and again classic.  It’s contained under her beautiful veil that she chose to wear during her ceremony that floated in the wind outside.  It went beautifully with her low back dress.  Her hair was low and had beautiful crystal hair pins placed to the side for later when she removed her veil.  The placement of a low veil is so beautiful.

Peggy is a classic goddess.  She has ordained herself with a tiara and who would not want to be a princess for a day.  Simple but a bold statement of crowning glory and they come in all sizes.  This perfectly matches her beautiful down style.  This is a replicated style of her wedding day for The Bliss Book.

Lindsey is beachy and fun.  She has ordained herself with a beautiful orchid straight from a Key West garden.  Keeping in mind a flower that will with stand the heat and tighter curls that will hold in the humidity.  Sometimes as a bride you have to think of reality in the heat, she could have never done a veil she was wise to flower it up with natural beauty instead.

Jenny chose high and classic.  She has doubled up the fun with ordained and veiled.  She was the bride that had envisioned her look from the very beginning from hair, tiara, veil placement.  She had plenty of height in her hair to push her veil up in the back.  Her look was complete and matched her dreams.

What is your veiled, adorned or unadorned dream?
