{What to Wear Wednesday} Light Blue, Silver, & White

You'll be doing alright with your Christmas of white ...

Good evening everyone and welcome back for this week's edition of {What to Wear Wednesday}!
Christmas is approaching fast, but the ice and snow is already here! So, it's the perfect time for this week's colour palette of Light Blue, Silver, & White! Be sure to play up this palette with icey accents like snowflakes and crystals. Let's take a look at some great wintery inspirations!


{Accessories}
I love the idea of wearing a cardigan for a winter wedding! A warm and cute accessory, how could you possibly go wrong?
Your something blue can be something really chic, too! You will be sure to turn heads as you walk down the aisle wearing a veil in a blue hue.
Wearing your hair up? Accent pretty curls and loose styles with snowflake bobby pins like these clear ones on the left by etsy seller howbeadyful or these silver and rhinestone ones on the right by etsy seller tilleyjewels.
Wearing your hair down? Accent a soft flowing style with a simple yet elegant snowflake headband like this one by etsy seller blacksatinshoes.

Why not try an updated pearl necklace like these for your wintery wedding? They'd look great on you or your bridesmaids. And they're so pretty, how could you resist wearing it again and again?

What to Wear Wednesday - Vintage Hollywood

Good evening everyone and welcome to a glamorous What to Wear Wednesday!
This week is all about a Vintage Hollywood theme so the words that you want to keep in mind for your fashions as glamor and elegance. You want to keep your styles very classic, otherwise you will start to stray away from the vintage feel. Top all of your fashions off with vintage jewelry and accessories to complete your look.


Hair and Accessories:
Pearls and crystals scream glamour and elegance. Choose jewelry and hair pieces that reflect these elements.

A beautiful birdcage veil with applique flowers or feathers really is a mainstay of a vintage look.

Wedding Dresses:

Bridesmaid Dresses:
When choosing styles for your girls, it's best to stay with silhouettes that are reminiscent of vintage styles, otherwise you will lose the essence of your Vintage Hollywood theme. Also, since black, gold, red, and white are some of the best colours for this theme, keep this palette in mind. The best way to make your decisions is to ask yourself if you can picture this dress on the red carpet. If the answer is yes, then you definitely found a Vintage Hollywood winner!
