One Great Dress – Tantalized By Theia

Theia “890044″ has just arrived in our Lovely LA store and boy is she a beauty! This fitted gown is so soft with it’s all over lace and scalloped eyelash edges. A simple train and ribbon tied in a bow for the waist is absolutely perfect for someone who’s wedding is outdoors this Spring. I’ve added some “umph” to this little lady with my favorite colors this season. Emerald and pale pinks really compliment each other well and add that slight bit of tantalizing luster to your overall theme.

A Moment With Brooklyn Fox Lingerie

The great thing about New York is that you can walk everywhere. And that means, the ability to discover new places while strolling through different neighborhoods. Brooklyn Fox Lingerie is one of those places you might discover while walking on a beautiful day through the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. Nestled just off Bedford Street, Brooklyn Fox Lingerie caters to every kind of woman, whatever her lingerie needs be. I recently sat down with Alexis, owner of Brooklyn Fox, to chat about bridal lingerie trends and how she got started.

Lovely: Tell me a bit about how you got into the lingerie business. What were your desires when opening a lingerie boutique?

Brooklyn Fox: I think that lingerie can go both ways. It’s definitely a luxury item but also a necessity. I always loved lingerie and I always wore beautiful lingerie even if I was wearing ripped jeans or a grungy look. It always made me feel special and gave me a little kick to my step. When I first opened up this shop, there was nothing in this neighborhood and you had to go into Manhattan to find anything. I wanted to do two things: open a store where you could find little gems to treasure in your closet but I also wanted a few basic and t-shirt bras that you didn’t have to go into Manhattan to find.

L: Are there any pieces that you would recommend for wearing the day of your wedding?

BF: My favorite bra is Cosabella’s Strapless Bustier. It’s plungy in the front and has really low in the back. We’ve had the most success with this bra so during bridal season, this is our go-to bra. However, if I were to get married I’d wear Fleur of England’s ‘Jasmine set’. Cosabella’s Strapless Bustier is definitely more practical but this one is really beautiful. We were so excited to see it at the shows and couldn’t wait to get it into the shops.

L: Are there any trends within the lingerie world that you see emerging or want to see emerge?

BF: There was a while when people were not buying white for under their gowns and that was interesting to notice. People were going the untraditional route and I’m not sure if it was because they wanted to be contrary or if it was something they truly felt but now it seems people have swung back and want that delicate, white set to put under their gown which is great.

L: Why do you think someone should wear lingerie on their wedding day?

BF: I think it’s a bit of a fail-safe in the occasion that there was some sort of malfunction. It really depends on the dress. There might be some reason to wear creative pieces and sometimes it just shapes you better. One of the most important things you care about when walking down the aisle is how you feel and look.

If you’re in the New York City area, take some time to visit Brooklyn Fox Lingerie at 132 North 5th Street in Brooklyn, New York. They are open on weekdays from 12 to 8 and on weekends from 12 to 7.

One Great Dress – Anne Barge “Jamieson”

Anne Barge is now having a trunk show at Lovely NYC! As I’m sure you know, I’ve been quite inspired by the outdoors recently and there are beautiful flowers springing up everywhere! Inspired by pink peonies and pale yellow roses, I thought “Jamieson” by Anne  Barge is a sweet addition to a spring wedding. For a classic gown, “Jamieson” is very whimsical and feminine. That a-line ball gown will definitely make you feel like a princess, and your prince charming is sure to sweep you off your feet with this One Great Dress!

Bow Ties and Polka Dots are sweet and cute details that make spring come alive.


Look at those handsome men in coral orange details! Nothing but good lookin’, and don’t leave out Fido, he’s a perfect ring bearer.

Lovely Loves Melissa Joy Manning

It’s always fun to come across jewelry designers who are doing unique and interesting things with jewelry. When I came across Melissa Joy Manning, I was instantly struck by her twist on the traditional engagement ring. Instead of using the usual white diamond, Melissa Joy Manning sometimes uses black diamonds, or diamonds with color which, in my opinion, are just as beautiful as clear white diamonds. It also helps to know that each piece is handmade in Berkley, California with sources from trusted suppliers who care about social and environmental sustainability.

I also am absolutely in love with her wedding band collection. The thin hammered gold rings are one of my favorites and definitely speak to a more non-traditional couple.
