Diamonds are a girl’s best friend… combine them with a beautiful, sleek and modern piece of artwork and you have yourself a creation from John Atencio.

Does the ring showcase the diamond, or is the diamond merely the canvas for the ring? You choose!

Wrapped up in that little blue box is the new Tiffany Grace collection. The collection features princess-cut and round brilliant diamonds bezel-set in platinum.

The tiara sparkles with an open pattern of circles and squares that would top off a gown with gorgeous.

Tennis champion Maria Sharapova wore these diamond drop earrings from the collection at the 2011 US Open. If only I could wear something like this while exercising- it would make it all worth it!

Perfect Peacock

Nicole — Wed, 06 Apr 2011 14:49:14 +0000

Peacock feathers are a great way to bring vibrant color and bold texture to your design. They’re versatile, too – they can be used in several looks, whether you’re going for vintage elegance, modern eclectic, or want to add a touch of whimsy to your wedding. The key to peacock feathers is to use them minimally as an occasional bold accent or inspiration.

This peacock-feather hairpiece looks vintage and romantic, and would be a great accent of color next to a white bridal gown:

For a touch of flair, try these shoe clips from Sofisticato on Etsy:

In a bouquet, peacock feathers add softness and texture, and are a great contrasting color:

There’s an Excuse to Splurge on Louboutin – It’s SCIENCE!

julia — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 14:55:25 +0000

When the big-wig, smart folks over at CNN justify dropping a quick mortgage payment on a pair of Christian Louboutin heels – you better believe that my ears perk up! CNN recently posted an article explaining that the OH.SO.GORGEOUS red-soled shoes aren’t just popular because of their beauty … there’s actually a science behind why women across the world covet their heels!

The article explains, “Behind each trademark red-soled shoe is a feat of custom engineering. ‘The heel is engineering in itself,’ said the sought-after designer in his Paris atelier. ‘This little thing that supports the human weight has to have a precise balance.’”

Umm, BRIDES – for the sake of SCIENCE, get yourself to Barneys and splurge!

The article also goes on to say, “But as long as women continue to covet his designs he maintains that the sky is the limit in terms of what he can design. ‘For me there ain’t no high heel high enough,’” [Louboutin] said.

Touché, Mr. Louboutin, Touché indeed.
