The 70′s at night were all about glamour, but with a heavy dose of natural beauty…

Sequins, metallics and wrap dresses? Yes, please!

Tea Time + Jewelry

December 22

For the Tea Tme Editorial, 33 Jewels kindly lent us a number of vintage costume jewelry and we just had to take a bunch of detailed styling shoots with them. Above the detail of a choker…

The incredible purple Miriam Haskell necklace…

 Here it is styled with Tricia’s tray and a cigarette case I bought at a thrift store.

I loved these elegant gold and white studs… You can find similar pieces at 33 Jewels.

I’m in love with these sweet gold fish-scale pumps by Kate Spade. The pearl detail is so sweet and ladylike.

London Calling

Tomorrow I’m heading out to London to design and attend my little sister’s wedding. I’m SUPER excited to go antiquing & prop hunting, not to mention visiting the always inspiring Fortnum & Mason, my beloved Cambridge where I studied abroad, drinking loads of cream tea and eating bags of Walker’s salt & vinegar chips. Posting will be light while I’m away, but I will have a full re-cap of my adventures when I return. Until then, cheers mate!

I thought I’d share this inspiration board I did last year because I’m still so infatuated with the color combination of aqua and gold. Isn’t is dreamy? Original post right here

I love a pretty bouquet, especially when its light and ethereal…

I created this bouquet for a Bohemian themed photo shoot recently featured on Green Wedding Shoes.

Mixed with Bohemian green and gold jewelry and a lace dress, I would say the combo is down right pretty!

Real Wedding: Glamorous Midsummer Night’s Dream II

June 16

For the reception, La Tavola’s sequin New York linens added some serious glamour to the tables. The bride and groom sat at Town & Country’s fun domed Montecito love seat.

For table decor, a mix of birdcages filled with moss and candles, alternated with clusters of lanterns and tons of flowers. For the table numbers, wood plaques were painted a coppery gold and a custom decal was applied.

Tucked into the flowers little birdies perched (the bride loved birds).

Around the menu a sequin belly band added even more sparkle.

For the cake, we used the groom’s parent’s cake topped. It was such an adorable heirloom touch.

And then for the groom’s cake, his favorite guitar was recreated.

Special thanks to all the vendors who helped create this fabulous event!
