Attending the Spring 2015 Bridal Fashion was not in my fortune. Luckily, Harper’s Bazaar created a slideshow of the highlights from the week. My favorites? Temperly London, Oscar de la Renta, and Naeem Khan.
Oscar de la Renta Resort 2015 collection is amazing. When I say that Look 38 is my favorite, I mean the entire look. It’s fabulous.
As mentioned earlier this week, Kristen and Scott were recently featured in Brides Magazine. My first post highlighted Kristen and Scott’s ceremony. My last post showed their reception photos.
The flowers in Kristen’s jewelry were complemented by her beautiful Oscar de la Renta shoes.
I love all things paper, and I definitely appreciate a cohesive stationery suite. Here are their programs.
The bridal bouquet incorporated hydrangeas and orchids.
They used a book from the Art Institute as a guest book. It was fun for out of town guests to flip through the colorful pages about Chicago.
Their modern centerpieces included moss, orchids, carnations and succulents. Here is the arrangement on the head table.
These books from the Art Institute doubled as favors and escort cards. I did the calligraphy on the belly bands, which matched the invitations.
Decor included letters from Anthropologie and framed family photos.
This was such a fun wedding. Thanks for letting me be a part of your big day!
PS. I love it even more for not being strapless.
Polka dot Manolo Blaniks, what more could a girl ask for? Actually, silver. Gold doesn’t match at all. Otherwise, I would have totally bought them.
I heart bows. These Stuart Weitzman shoes are only available in limited sizes.
Fellow blogger Tara plans to buy these beauties in fuschia.
I found these on the wild west of the web…and have no idea who makes them. They aren’t quite perfect but I love the color!
My dress wouldn’t go with a pointy-toe shoe. If it did, these would be the ones that I would love and adore.
This is a fabulous shoe. Really. It isn’t quite right with my gown but I do love it. I wish Kate Spade made it in black.
On a total whim on a very slushy and gross Chicago day, I decided to head over to Saks to browse. Why is it that the sales staff in shoe departments always look at your shoes? To protect myself from the elements, I was wearing tan suede cowboy boots. Not very fashionista but it is the best I could do in the weather.
The sales staff brought over two pairs for me. The first was a pair by Gucci with gold. No can do. The second, well, I think they found a slice of heaven for me.
Pair found on the web, by Allie. Apparently they were the hit of the Fall Fashion Week.
Of course, they didn’t have my size 36. All of Saks was sold out. Neiman’s, Nordstrom, Berghoff, Intermix, and Barney’s don’t sell Oscar shoes. Panic in the disco!
Finally, I called up the NYC Oscar boutique. Desperation in my voice,
….do you have the shoe? ….In a 36? ….in champagne? Yes!!
The oversized brooch makes me swoon.
4 inch heels. Did you know that heels make for a better sex life?
Hello Lover!
