Nella Designs

The past few months of trying to plan our wedding have shown me that their is not a lot of bridal ware geared toward the non-traditional gal. I’ve found a few forums that have been helpful but other than that I remain stumped. I so badly want a tea length dress but no luck yet. If anyone has any suggestions on that front I’d be thrilled. Stationery is also a hard thing to find maybe because there are so many choices and I want something that is a bit different from the traditional invites and thank yous. Then I found Nella Designs filled with beautifully crafted wedding related invites perfect for a shower or even the ceremony itself.

hair made simple

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Right now I am obsessed with hair accessories. I have always loved them but I’ve been spending more time playing with my hair and not being so lazy about it. Even if you are hair styling challenged a simple barrette or bejeweled ponytail holder can do wonders to make you look put together.

With my upcoming wedding (by upcoming I mean next May) I know I want no part of a veil. I’m looking for a sparkly vintage hairclip or comb. Plus since it will be vintage it can double as my something old.
