Wedding Day Look: Purple Paradise

Brought to You by Justin Alexander

Happy Fashion Tuesday!  A new year calls for a new and fabulous Wedding Day Look! Today our fashion story’s inspiration comes from my favorite color – purple!!! Mysterious and emblematic, purple is the color of royalty and the hue of choice for many brides around the world. Therefore, we teamed up with our friends at Justin Alexander to put together a look around this breath-taking ceremony set-up that we call “Purple Paradise”.

This week we have carefully curated a collection of purple details paired with Justin Alexander Style 8702, a beautiful mermaid silhouette gown featuring lace appliques and beaded details. It is a statement making look for those sophisticated brides who want to keep it colorful, yet chic.

Wedding Day Look: Black Tie Affair

Brought to you by Justin Alexander

As we had promised last week, today we are in for a bridal fashion ride into a world of pure glam! We've been teaming up with bridal fashion powerhouse, Justin Alexander to share a fabulous wedding styling inspirations each week, and this week’s Wedding Day Look may just be my favorite yet, because it's all about a wedding theme that gets my heart racing: Black Tie Affair! If the idea of a groom in a classic tux, and a wedding reception featuring just the right amount of bling are your cup of tea, then you came to the right place my friend.

Today’s fashion story backdrop is an uber-chic wedding reception with a touch of glamorous vibe which asks for nothing less than an equally glamorous and equally chic frock, if I do say so myself! And the wedding dress we chose for this look is all that and more. It is Justin Alexander Signature 9740. Sequins, pearls, and bugle beads cover the sweetheart neckline and full bodice on this mermaid ruffled gown. We paired the gorgeous gown up with chandelier earrings to match the crystal chandeliers on the reception, some fab black pumps with a bow to match our groom’s outfit, and we added a red bouquet for a must needed POC. The result totally blew my mind!

We’ve come to know from our experiences that finding the one can be a challenge, the right wedding dress that is. And if finding the perfect frock for the big day wasn’t hard enough, you also have to face the challenge of styling your look with the right accessories to equally complement your bridal gown and your wedding theme, as well.

Badgley Mischka Bridal Shoes

We gladly thank Badgley Mischka for enabling our shoe fix! Aside from being overly obsessed with all things wedding- we have our occasional love affair with a good pair of bridal shoes, but when it comes to Badgley Mischka we can’t just have one obsession, we’re literally head over heels for all of their collection. So if you’re a bride in need of killer shoes for your wedding day, well… we couldn’t think of anyone better to help you walk down the aisle than Badgley Mischka. With the new spring collection it is a little difficult to edit to just a few of our favorites, but for the sake of chatting away on our favorite subject, shoes. We’ll try to narrow it down to a few of our beloveds.

{Wedding Day Look} : Plum + Gold

Last we I brought you a post that has become one of the most popular ones this month here at Belle The Magazine, The Ultimate Color Guide for a Fall Wedding. So, I decided to wrap up this week with a Wedding Day Look inspired by one of the color boards I presented you on the guide. Featuring Plum and Gold this bridesmaid ensemble is perfect for a autumn soiree or any season if you ask me. I mean, you probably already notice I go crazy for any shade of purple. And Plum?.. well, it's one of my faves. And what can I say about gold? It just brings the best out of any other color, and besides being a hot trend this year, it's a classic (and very classy) choice for a wedding day.

{Wedding Day Look} : Breezy + Coral

Before Summer is completely gone we wanted to bring you a wedding day look inspired by the soft colors of the ocean.  With beach-like names, this gorgeous colour palette can be the perfect match for a summer seaside soiree or an ocean-view celebration. But if you ask me, I can see these girly shades working perfectly on an outdoor spring wedding or a fall event - maybe paired with some browns. I can even see this cold "breezy" color taking the center stage on a winter soiree along with some crispy whites, while the "coral" acts as a small contrasting accent. What do you think? Would you wear this colors for summer, fall, spring or winter?
