Color Spotlight: Grey

Grey has become a popular wedding color because of it's versatility in wedding decor. It is a refined, elegant color and so it goes well with playful pastels (lighter shades of grey), but is also at home with other more 'sophisticated' colors like deep reds, purples, and greens (darker graphite shades). Grey is formal, elegant, and really will go well with any wedding theme colors.

If you choose grey for your bridesmaids, not only will they love you (grey is quite a forgiving color in the right fabrics) but more than likely, they'll love the dress, because they can wear it again.

If you're the adventurous type, grey is the perfect tone for multi colored bridesmaid dresses!

Romantic Spring Style

Spring is all about romance, hope, and gardens teeming with beautiful flowers. To achieve this look shop for styles that focus on lace details, delicate designs, petal colored fabrics, soft materials, and floral details. Sometimes the most interesting ensembles are a contrast of different styles. So consider combining romantic and hard edged items, like a soft flouncy blouse and leather pencil skirt. Pairing delicate floral elements with sharp details cultivates a look that is neither too girly nor too austere. Start by combining flowing silks with a corseted top. Accent the look with accessories that will sparkle in the sunlight, such as crystal jewelry and riveted accents. Finally, apply color, patterns and organic florals generously to achieve a look that is perfectly graceful and terribly sassy. Other parts of your outward appearance can also contribute to a romantic style. Long, curly and bouncy hair has romantic appeal, and showcasing a certain amount of skin can add romantic femininity to an ensemble. A romantic style is feminine, gentle, playful, whimsical and arty. Romantic garments are soft and delicate, and move as you walk or as the breeze catches your outfit. Your look will be soft and flowing, sensual and inviting.
