To kick off the first day of February I thought I’d feature something truly romantic: the handmade creations of Jennifer Wood from Mignonne.

Vera Wang, Spring 2012 Preview
Vera has taken a twisted turn in her latest bridal collection. Cream and black deconstructed chiffon, tulle, organza and lace adorn the gowns, creating a sort of wicked enchantment. What does everyone think of the dark, earthy direction for the Fall 2012 line? I’d say it’s perfect for the month of October.

Let’s hear it for the boys: Cuff Links
This second feature for gentlemen focuses on an accessory, and the best accessory for a well-dressed man has to be cufflinks. They make a great gift for dads, brothers, and groomsmen alike. And they cover all types: sporty, nerdy, conservative, or the hobbyist. So don’t think these little gems are just for “the business man”. These unique pieces from Etsy vendors and Polli prove otherwise.

Beautiful Backyard Wedding Shoot
Happy Friday everyone! I’m finally in my new apartment after a disastrous moving experience, but things are looking better and I just can’t wait to be fully unpacked.
For the weekend I leave you with a sweet backyard shoot by Anne Robert featuring couple Naomi and Josh from the Rockstar Diaries blog. I love the tree swing! What a playful and heart-warming scene.

Let’s hear it for the boys: Bow Ties
Special events like weddings aren’t only for the ladies. We may think we run the show and deserve to be the center of attention most of the time, but without the gentlemen, there would be a lot of love lacking. And special occasions are a chance for them to shine too, so even though you may consider yourself the ‘star’, let them have a bit of spotlight too.
So what’s a fashionable trend for the gentlemen these days?
Bow ties! Especially if you’re going for a rustic or oldschool look, these little fancies can be the perfect thing to round out a man’s outfit and keep the theme of your event shining.
Check out these daring, yet classic bow ties from Something’s Hiding In Here and Pierrepont Hicks.

Mix-And-Match Bedding
The mix-and-match bedding feature on Anthropologie’s site is possibly more fun than a ‘choose your own adventure’. Try it, and maybe you’ll find a perfect pair worth buying!
