As we are having a Leanne Marshall Trunk Show this weekend at Lovely LA, I invite you to scroll down to see a modern and soft take on this shortie, as only Leanne Marshall can do best. Neons and moss green mixed with little touches of mocha to bring this stunning bridal gown back to the moment at hand; a new chapter of life with your honey. Flirty and fun with these pop colors, and then softened by a sweet vintage comb for a hair accessory. A neon yellow ring to give a little “hello gorgeous!” And the always popular green earrings to make any hair color look it’s best as they dangle from your ears. Without a doubt, this Leanne shortie is this week’s One Great Dress!

If you’ve been to any retailer lately, you’ll know that stripes are having a MAJ-OR moment.  I love the look of a pale pastel stripe, it is reminiscent of Gilded Age luxury and seaside living (put the two together and you get the Newport Mansions in Rhode Island). Lucky for you, this is a timeless trend that will stay in your closet for many summers to come.  Check out five of our fave stripey looks:

1. Minty fresh short shorts
2. You’ll want to tap your toes in these yellow oxfords
3. Madewell dress made for beach days

4. Lightweight trousers perfect for biking
5. Suit up in gray stripes

Bold Pastel Stripes

One Great Dress this week is none other than the latest sexy siren from WToo, “Venus.” Fitted and lacy with a slit, “Venus” is light and has a train to give you that bridal feeling. Wouldn’t this dress look dreamy in the midst of a pear orchard? You can decorate the entire tablescape with those lime green colored pears and pair them with juicy blackberries for easy centerpieces. Salmon colored linens for the table will match your bridesmaid’s bouquets and flowers in your hair. I can just see your honey standing there at the altar with his crisp white button down rolled at the elbows adorned with this lime green bow tie. Maybe those sexy nerd glasses too.

And while we’re a little non-traditional here, your bridesmaids can have separates so they can wear the pieces again. And accenting everything with little gold touches will really make everything stand out. Your jewelry, your shoes, even sprinkling a little gold dust for good luck on your bouquet will be a nice detail. Bonus? “Venus” is available to see this weekend at Lovely LA and June 7-9 in New York. I might just have to try her on myself!

Lea-Anne Belter, as I’m sure you know by now, is coming to Lovely NYC for a trunk show and I am only too pleased to style one of her gorgeous gowns! It’s summer time ladies and the sun is shining. Pops of tangy coral orange and luscious purples are a flutter, adding the perfect mix to “Avia’s” whimsy flair.

At Lovely, we love accessories and I’m loving these! The coral necklace, pearl drop earrings, and this really awesome purple and gold mood stone all have that round circular shape and compliment each other. Even the rosette headband to put in your hair keeps the trend going.

Speaking of hair, this just goes to show that an updo is nothing short of gorgeous. Perfect to show off that low back of “Avia.” And with that duchess lace and silk buttons down the back? Swoon!

For the wedding, finding little things to put in your pops of color can really make a difference. Nail color and the grooms and groomsmen ties are easy additions.

Flowers, flowers, flowers! And you can find so many options in these colors too! Check out my pin here to see a huge list of flowers with their name and picture.

I think I’ll just make these. They look too good and too delicious to just post them! Yum!

Don’t forget the tablescapes for your decor. I’m sure your guests will feel very royal sitting at these tables among the deep purple linens. Imagine the centerpieces having those coral flowers from above!

Now, don’t forget, Lea-Anne Belter is coming to Lovely NYC May 31-June 2 and then to Lovely LA August 16-18. Make your appointment here to see this little lady, “Avia.”

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.
