Wrapped Up

Things in the wedding planning department have really picked up as of late.  I finally downloaded the amazing Brides Wedding Genius iPhone app (I'll elaborate on my  obsession with this little godsend in another post) and the floodgates of inspiration blew wide open.  For three days straight, I've been poring over photos of dresses and accessories, and one thing has become increasingly clear:  I pretty much need to build my wedding look around a crystal head wrap.  

Anyone who knows me will vouch for my addiction to head wraps. They're just so....free spirited and fun, and that's exactly how I feel when I put one on.  I want my attire to reflect the way I am going to feel on my wedding day so it's only logical that I adorn my head with this accoutrement.  Below are some options I'm loving right now:

Hyperventillating for Marchesa's S/S 11 Collection

I am admittedly waaaay behind in reviewing the S/S 11 collections from NY Fashion Week (y'know, there's that whole job search thingy that's sucking up allllll of my time...NBD). This morning, I couldn't stand it any longer and decided to devote my morning to perusing Style.com for their coverage of the shows thus far.


When I got to Marchesa's collection, my heart almost stopped. Georgina Chapman and Karen Craig do. not. mess. around.  The name Marchesa always evokes images of breathtaking, delicate, immaculately constructed beauty. If you ever want to be the center of attention at an event, with every single eyeball fixated on you when you enter a room, put on Marchesa. Done. 

Not surprisingly, I have found ample inspiration for my wedding among what I can only describe as looks of pure poetry.  In other words, I need to either have four ceremonies, or four costume changes, so I can wear each and every one of these gorgeous pieces: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here are a few more looks that are not so much wedding gown inspirations as they are everysinglenightout inspirations. 

Lace? Check. Jumpsuit? Check. Cropped jacket? Check. Amazeballs body-chain/web/breastplate? Checkkkkkkkk.

Now take a minute to catch your breath.  I'm still trying to catch mine.
