I’m so in love with these vibrant turquoise shoes. The touch of sparkle on the toe is perfection!

Bridal Style: Relaxed Elegance
March 06
I love this bride, Amanda’s, wedding day style…. Awesome shoes with a classic but slightly casual wedding gown, what could be better for a winery wedding?
Amanda wore her family heirlooms for jewelry, her great grandmother’s crystal bracelet and earrings. To incorporate something from her parent’s wedding, lace from her mother’s dress was wrapped around her bouquet. To complete the look, a simple bird cage veil added a vintage touch.

I’m loving these very contemporary gray heels for a modern bride… The shoes are by Roger Vivier.
More Prettiness from the Rue Editorial
March 01
Calling any of Jose Villa’s photos outtakes seems sort of ridiculous, but here they are, more goodies from the Rue shoot. Above, Santa Barbara at sunset…
For the first setup of the day, I had a few adriondecks brought in from Found, pillows from Yeah Rentals and I brought a funky wicker side table and put my big brass swan filled with wax flowers on top of it.
For flowers, I wanted it to be very loose and very spring… I used lilac, tulips, ranunculus and jasmine vine. The basket was a thrift store find (love the aqua and blue pattern) and the main table’s container was from Anthropologie. Plates, flatware and glassware available for rental for the amazing Casa de Perrin.
After shooting the table and one look on the docks, we moved to the boat…
This dress didn’t make it into the magazine, but I’m obsessed with it! Its Rachel Zoe and the dress moves so pretty in the wind… I accessorized with a few chunky gold necklaces and a gold hammered cuff. Big thank you again to all who helped contribute!

I think my obsession with shoes began at the age of 4 with ballet lessons and conveting those pretty, peachy, pink, pointe shoes… Needless to say this photo by Elizabeth Messina from the new Twigs & Honey Collection is right up my alley…
Bridal Style: Pride & Prejudice Inspired
I love, love this pensive picture of my sweet bride Elizabeth, in her gorgeous Claire Pettibone gown, looking at the sea from Rancho Dos Pueblos.
The intricate beading, empire waist, and the delicate cap sleeves made Elizabeth feel like she’d just stepped out of the pages of Pride & Prejudice…
For a splash of color, and her something blue, Elizabeth picked these blue shoes by Poetic License. Her bracelet was her something borrowed and her earring were her something new (vintage baubles from 33 Jewels). To see the rest of Elizabeth’s wedding check out the Style Me Pretty magazine!
Bridal Style: Vera + Boots
February 21
How cute is the bride’s style? Elegant Vera Wang meets down home comfort with some well worn cowboy boots.
Add in a long veil, classic white peonies and a groom in a tux with classic pocketsquare and you’ve got a pretty timeless (but fun) wedding day style…
