I love brunette brides. I am partial, given that I myself am a brunette. Some of my favorite celebrities are brunettes. Lately I love Jessica Stroup, Minka Kelly, Mila Kunis and Leighton Meester. Something about the rich hair color – whether deep espresso, or a more chestnut to caramel hue, is beautiful and elegant. Brunette [...]
Whether you like her or not, Ashlee Simpson was looking fierce at the Melrose Place premiere on Monday night. I was inspired to create a little color board. Notice the awesome color swatch card from The Inspired Bride, the Louboutons and the Red roses and Gerber daisies. Rock and Roll Red Wedding – Polyvore. Rock [...]
Recently, the Heroes stunner Ali Larter married Hayes MacArthuer. I was impressed with the simple elegance of her wedding from the dress to her hair style. The Dress: Vera Wang lace chantillly dress Luxe Le Notre. I thought the dress choice was surprisingly subdued, but not in a boring way. I think it fit the [...]

I’m a huge Biggest Loser fan. So I was excited to see the wedding photos of last season’s Nicole and Damien. Looks like Nicole chose a mermaid style Amsale dress. I am personally not a fan of mermaid dresses, but she works it! Anyone who loses 125 pounds can wear a mermaid dress and sashay [...]

Today, I’m loving this wedding shoot I found!! Theorie Photography + San Diego Style Weddings Magazine
This weekend I worked with one of my favorite brides so far. The bride and I really worked together to achieve the look that she envisioned. She researched and found photos she liked as inspiration. What was even more helpful is that she was specific about what she wanted for her makeup. She gave me [...]
I love the silhouette of an empire waist dress. Empire waist dresses remind me of nightgowns. They are so feminine and soft, which is a perfect tone for your wedding day. The current bridal trend is dramatic mermaid silhouettes but an empire waist gown is a way to go against the grain and still look [...]
