Celebrate Getting Dressed!

 Inspiration for today's post came from The Golden Globe awards. Most celebs looked lovely, but a standout to me was Kate Beckensale's look, shown above. Designed by Atelier Zuhra, it shimmered and sparkled with a gossamer skirt, and shiny sequins. This edit celebrates dressing up for your own special occasions.

Wedding Wednesday: Pretty in Peach

As you might have heard, Pantone's color of the year is Peach Fuzz. I don't love the name, but the color is warm, soft, and pretty. It features a subtle sensuality that gently falls between a pale pink and orange. It pairs well with bright colors and soft colors. My own color palette was peach and ivory. If you are beginning to plan your wedding, consider this chic shade. Here's inspiration.
