Modern Romance in Black and White

Posted on May 28th, 2009 by Alyson. Filed under Color Palettes, Wedding Inspiration.

Hello everyone at One Lovely Day! My name is Alyson, and I was the lucky winner of Project Wedding’s Inspiration Board Contest! I’ve been invited to be a guest blogger here to share some of my inspirations with you. If you’d like to see more of my designs and ideas, please come visit me at my wedding inspiration blog Keen To Be Seen, too!

Today’s theme is modern romance with black and white floral details.

Some of my favorite elements of this board are the funky and fabulous button and felt flower bouquets by Princess Lasertron. I love the combination of handcrafted and vintage glam!

The white hydrangea bouquet with beaded black butterflies is another Martha Stewart find. The Caroline Herrera blossom gown photo was also from Martha Stewart Weddings. When I first saw it, I couldn’t decide if it was a thumbs up or thumbs down for me, but I’ve decided I’m a fan. The rest of the gown is very understated, so I think that even with the huge bloom it manages to be elegant and lovely.

I love both pairs of shoes. The black pair are black tulle stilettos with organza roses by Badgley Mischka. Unfortunately, I’m not sure who made the other ones, but I love them. If you know, send me a note and I’ll update it here! The same goes for that fantastic black lace cake.

The cute little black and white dress from Peach and Plum would be a modern take on a frilly flower girl. And it’s even on sale!

Finally, the Damask Pattern Tape is genius. You can use it for packaging favors as shown in the picture, but you can also use it to on clear glass votive candle holders to make these:

The song for today is I’ve Got the World On a String by Michael Bublé– I thought it was a good combination of old-school classic with a modern twist, just like today’s board!

September 23rd, 2010 at 12:31 am

Generally women cannot leave the building without bringing a purse or a handbag with them. Once all, carrying a purse along is a suitable way of lugging loose alteration, a mobile, a compact, a comb, a powder, keys, a vial of perfume, reading material, and all the other stuff that women cannot leave home without. Toting a purse or a handbag saves women from having stuffed and bulky pockets, if they have pockets at all. However, as suitable as a handbag is in serving us carry stuff around, what many women fail to realize is that a handbag or a purse is a vogue assistant. So, because it is a fashion co-conspirator, it must effect with the balance of the Clothing. More importantly than that, when you choose a purse or a handbag to go with your clothing, you must pick one that must match the type of Figure that you bear. You may not be aware of it, but after someone looks on you, the firstly thing about your clothing that this someone would be likely to notice is your handbag. Depending on what kind of handbag you are carrying, you may be drawing attention to the curves of your figure that you could prefer to Hide. It is all approaching balance. Right like every piece of clothing or fashion accessory that you wear, your purse must meet your figure appear balanced. It must screen what you may want to hide and underline what you could want to highlight. One of the doctrine that you must be following whilst picking out a purse to match your clothes is that larger handbags go with amply padded Figures, while small purses go off with slighter bodies. If you are a Gentle person, the type of purse that you must be using is small. If you wear plus sizes, you must go off for larger handbags. That is important part of the basic doctrine that you must observe whilst choosing a handbag. So, which type of purse must proceed with which type of trend? Free with the principle on size on choosing handbags, if you are small with just a slight figure, you must go off for a handbag that is small and is something that you can hold near to your figure. By no means ever buy a sizeable purse as you will drown in it. Holding a big purse if your body is small would make you look as if the purse is carrying you, and not the other way around. Women with top-heavy bodies, on the other hand, would want to call attention away from their high figures. If your build is top-heavy, the handbag to you need is something that has long straps, something that you can stand close to your hips. Remember to persuade a large purse to balance out your figure. By no means ever aid a small handbag if you have a plus size body. As we said before, toting a small purse will only call attention to your size If you have the exact hourglass body, with your bust in unison to your hips and with a definite waist, you are to be envied. You can lug along just about several type of purse or handbag there is. But next again, you must still be conscious regarding the way your purse balances out your body. Permanently get a handbag that is just the right size compared to your figure. So, if you are on the small and lean side, go for a small bag. If you are sizeable and really curved, a big bag will work for you. Always remember that your purse or handbag is a vogue accessory.
