Red Spells Romance

Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

Since antiquity, when Roman brides wore crimson veiling called flammeum to symbolize love and fertility, red has been associated with amore. It’s even a favorite of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love – her symbol is the red rose.

Bridal Shoe Envy

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

Love heels? Then keep reading, fellow shoe lovers – we’ve got some knockout bridal shoe eye candy!

Though we don’t sell them at Bridal Styles Boutique, we do absolutely adore a pair of magnificent shoes. Actually, it’s more of an obsession! So, when brides ask for our advice, we’re always happy to chat about one of our favorite things. The perfect opportunity to talk heels presented itself recently when we stumbled across some of the most marvelous wedding footwear ever. After all, what kind of bridal accessory authority would we be if we didn’t share?

It’s true many are incredibly expensive (Christian Louboutin, Valentino or Dior, anyone?), but there’s nothing wrong with a little piggy-bank inspiration! Our feeling is this: other than your wedding day, when are you going to have such a perfect excuse to treat yourself?

Two times a year, couture bridal gown and accessory designers gather in New York for the wedding version of Fashion Week. New York Bridal Market is always an event we look forward to, and Spring 2012 Market was worth the anticipation! We’re very excited to pair the Bridal Styles 2012 collection with all of these stunning gowns.

Layered Skirts:

Soft and romantic, skirts with layers had everyone sighing.

Red Carpet Trend: Hair Jewelry

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

Stylish stars are wearing everything from gorgeous crystal pieces and diamond brooches to pearl and gemstone combs on the red carpet. Most recently at the Met Ball, there was so much sparkle adorning updos, demi styles and loose hair that we wondered whether hair jewelry was a dress code requirement! Then, after seeing Vera Wang and Jessica Alba’s diamond headpieces, we thought maybe Kate Middelton’s tiara had something to do with it.

No matter the reason, at Bridal Styles Boutique, we’re on board with this dazzling trend. After all, on the red carpet or walking down the aisle, nothing says fabulous like sparkling hair accessories.
