as if finding the perfect dress isn’t grueling enough, then once you settle on your dream dress the next question quickly arises.   what to wear with the dress?  how to style it? makeup?! hair?!? accessories?!?!?  now it’s time to create a ‘look’.  since many brides aren’t in fact stylists this can be a daunting task.  to get your creative juices flowing I have styled 1 fabulous Jcrew gown 3 very different ways.  it is fun to see the gown take on a unique vibe when paired with different accessories.   remember;  this can be applied to your everyday wardrobe too.  it only takes a few key accessories and style choices to personalize any outfit! Be sure to head to my blog secretly fancy to keep up with all things fashion, decor, and secretly fancy!

bohemian bride

the key elements to this bohemian look were all chosen to evoke a earthy goddess vibe. the hair is down, wavy and most importantly, effortless. the fabulous head piece makes a statement however is not over the top, as to not compete with the flower child earrings. makeup for this look should be minimal with a rosy cheek. and the bohemian beaded bracelets finish this look off. The flower sandal adds a nice element of surprise and maintains the romantic vibe.

preppy bride

Just because you lean towards a preppy style, it doesn’t mean you have to be boring. to prove it, I paired a fabulous Kate Spade shoe with this look for your something blue. the strings of pearls for the necklace are classic but still a twist on the tried and true one strand of pearls. An elegant clutch adds some refinement to this look, Lanvin really knocked it out of the park with that little number, what a fun play on ribbons! put your hair in a low chignon, throw on your soft pink lip and march down that aisle.

 

Vintage glamour

for my glamour girls, the old Hollywood vintage style never ceases to wow. the ultimate over the top accessory is this incredible Judith Leiber clutch. i love mixing metals and it really works in this look. why choose silver or gold??? the olden days of choosing just one are over. the fabulous and romantic art deco earrings are from my favorite online jewelry store Charm and Chain. leave your neck bare to add some drama and instead opt for a delicate cuff. all that’s left are your dancing shoes and of course your secretly fancy red pout.
