Flower and Feather Belt by Icing 101

A lot of women are buying simpler dresses these days, and glamming them up with accessories. I am particularly fond of the belt trend, as it is slimming on a sheath gown, and adds a vintage flair that is sophisticated and elegant. This intricately designed belt would be an amazing addition to any gown.

Beautiful! I love the way the black flower sets off the sparkling rhinestones. This belt is also a good way to add black to your ensemble without going with the whole hog black wedding gown. Available for $45 from Icing 101.

Opera Length Silk Gloves by Carolina Amato

Adventures In Dress Shopping

I wanted so desperately to have a traditional 30’s wedding dress with long sleeves and pearl buttons. But then reality set in. I am getting married in New Orleans. In April. If it’s 76 degrees out today, how hot can I expect it to get on April 4th?

Perfect Details Silk Gloves

That’s not a riddle, it’s just my rhetorical way of saying that I don’t get to wear that kind of dress. Gloves, on the other hand, I can do. I just ordered these beauties from Perfect Details, and they were well worth the price. Cellophane thin silk with a silky smooth hand and, yes, pearl buttons.

They are the perfect way to get the look I’m going for without committing to potentially deadly (from heat exhaustion!) sleeves. Available in many colors for $105 from Perfect Details.

Want to see a few more pictures from my wedding?

I’ve talked about my collection of vintage porcelain pins before…

And how to stop strapless sandals from flapping as you wear them…

I think I’ve even mentioned that I love designing jewelry?

Here it is in action

I think this white gold “Oui” necklace from Dior would make a charming wedding-day necklace:

It’s even finished off with a diamond!

pretty pearls

Okay, so I’m still looking for wedding jewelry – but you can wear pearls with lots of different outfits too!

I just recently stumbled across the work of James Murray and was really impressed! His website is being redesigned, but this is one of the pieces available.

It’s called “Bubbles” and is made from glass pearls & gunmetal. Bold, but so pretty!
