It really is getting to be into the swing of the countdown for my July nuptials, and as a wonderful special project, I teamed up with The White Gown in DUMBO, Brooklyn for a fun bridal beauty tutorial video! I wore a Nicole Miller gown, in a similar style to my own dress, and sported two different hair piece and makeup looks. You will soon get to see the video and vote on which look you think I should wear for my wedding, but in the meanwhile, here’s the behind-the-scenes pics from the photoshoot! The amazing team included host Dawn Del Russo, makeup by Lindsey Jones, hair by Laureen Krawse, hair accessories by Thea of Hushed Commotion, video by Courtney of Love + Brain Films, Abby Ludowise of Chic Creative for coordinating, and of course, The White Gown!
There really was no better way to round up this collection of goodies then with the title above! I’ve got some items that have gone the distance for me, so I thought it would be great to share them with you, as I’m certain they will pique your interest too!
Weekend gear for me needs to be functional, comfy, and casual. With the warm weather around the corner, I’ve got lighter layers and brights on my mind, so inspired by some new footwear I’ve acquired, courtesy of Aerosoles, I thought to build some outfits that I’d love to wear on the weekend based around these shoes!
Above is my Saturday “city slicker, errand running, then go to brunch with the girls” look! Comfy shoes are a must, but so is a nice, relaxed top and big old bag to stash my daily essentials!
Above is my Sunday “a little bit country” look; modern detailing like exposed zippers and good texture found in the bag and hoop earrings lend it a modern, cosmpolitan edge.
Forget about the winter and think swim!
Incorporate the colorblocking trend into your swimwear this season with some luxe separates created by designer Araks Yeramyan (of her eponymous lingerie label Araks) for J.Crew.
Araks based the fit and feel of the swim styles on popular underpinnings from her line, “It’s like lingerie for everyone to see!” she explains. Featuring bold, bright hues with a subtle, flattering splash of color block, we have a feeling you’ll definitely want to try all of these pieces, and explore the world of Araks further! Shop the line now, available online only, at J.Crew, at a price range of $155-$385 per piece.
