I do believe that the lovely Myra of Twigs & Honey can do no wrong. Every piece she creates is a bit of magic, a truly lovely work of art. The latest pieces she has created take it to a whole new level. She has painstakingly hand-dyed, cut, painted and sewed every last petal of …

One of the things I never expected to love about planning our wedding was dress shopping. There were a lot of reasons I suspected that to be case, but it ended up being the complete opposite. I loved shopping for dresses and went from being the girl who thought I’d never have that “this is …

Apparently, I am just a sucker for gorgeous dresses and amazing photography today. Ok ok, clearly I’m a sucker for such things every day, but I’ve got to be honest – this dress has me rethinking everything.

As promised, Anne-Marie of Perfect Bound has another great holiday look to share with us today – this one being perfect for the ultra sophisticated black tie affair.

I was so delighted when I came across Emersonmade last night, I just knew I had to start off your Friday morning by spreading the delight. From big fabric flower brooches and corsages that are as grandiose as they are whimsical to incredibly stylish clutches, ties, sashes, and even dinner napkins, Emersonmade’s shop is literally …
There is something so ethereal and beautiful about the pieces textile designer Lousie Broad makes that I couldn’t help but find myself completely mesmerized as I scrolled through all the pretty little things in her shop. She uses the loveliest of natural fibers like silk and the softest merino wools to create each piece, perfect …

Many kind thanks go out to the lovely Myra of Twigs & Honey for turning me onto the blog of the incomparable Elizabeth Dye. These dresses would be so beautiful for a wedding, a rehearsal dinner, a great New Year’s Eve party or any occasion worthy of a great frock. My favorite might be this …
