Vogue Weddings.

My copy just arrived in the mail and I cannot wait to spends hours looking through photos of some of my favorite society brides. Pure bliss.

I’m heading to Vermont next weekend for a wedding, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’s a white one! With that in mind, I thought I’d share a few fashionable finds that would help any winter bride keep those cold feet (and hands and heads) at bay!

A rehearsal dinner…

A courthouse wedding…

A modern evening wedding… (this look also comes in a short version!)

A beachy wedding…

A retro wedding.

Crew’s bridal collection.  OK, the second one isn’t really one shoulder, but the effect is still there.

The beading on this one reminds me of fireworks…

And this one sort of reminds me of Michelle Obama’s inauguration dress by Jason Wu.

Talk to the hand... I said no rings.

Sorry, Will, but some traditions were just meant to last forever…

or not, for the non-traditional bride.

Totally love the shoes too.  See the rest of the collection here, here, and here.

Two. http://lydiaross.com/2011/03/10/one-for-you-and-me-two/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=one-for-you-and-me-two http://lydiaross.com/2011/03/10/one-for-you-and-me-two/#comments Fri, 11 Mar 2011 01:09:45 +0000 Lydia http://bonneideeblog.wordpress.com/?p=573 Last Saturday I went to a trunk show for a line of jewelry that my lovely friend Lisa sells, called Stella & Dot.  It’s like tupperware parties for the 21st century!  I went with the goal of purchasing a gift for my friend’s birthday…

…and I came away with a little gift for myself, too.

OK.  Who am I kidding?  I’m totally getting those earrings for myself as well.

P.S. This would be such a fun idea for a shower, bachelorette party, or a great source for bridesmaid gifts!

Such a beautiful, modern – yet much more wearable! – rendition of an amazing gown.
