Fashion Friday: Stylish Bowties for the Groomsmen

Hey everyone and Happy Friday!  I normally focus on women's fashion on Fridays, but today I'm switching it up and posting about the guys, the groomsmen in particular.  If you're looking for a way to bring some edge to the groomsmen's attire, how about a bowtie?  It's different, unexpected, and it gives the groomsmen an opportunity to get a little creative.  Take a look at some of my suggestions.

1.  Red, white and blue check-Pairs well with a knaki suit for an outdoor casual wedding.

2.  Summer Brights-Wear with a gray suit for an instant splash of color.

3.  Stripes and polka dots-Pairs well with a classic black suit or tuxedo.

So what do you think?  Do you see any bowties in your future?

Happy Planning!

Fashion Friday: What to Wear to a Spring/Summer Wedding

Happy Friday!  Today I thought I would share a few fashion ideas for the ladies on what to wear to a spring/summer wedding.  If you are like me, you've probably received an invitation or two to attend a loved one's wedding this year.  And of course you want to show up in style!  Just be sure to adhere to the requested attire whether it be formal, semi-formal or casual.  If you're not sure of what to wear, consider the venue where the wedding is being held, and time of day, and make your decision from there.  Be inspired by these spring fashion trends below.

1. The Fit and Flare Dress

2.  The Shift Dress

3.  The Maxi Dress

4.  The Jumpsuit

  Since I''m crazy for prints and bold colors, I'm all for the chevron print shift dress.  What about you? Which style would you rock?  Tell us in the comments section below.

Happy Planning!

Fashion Friday: Something Blue

Say it with me. Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue!  Yes, we all know this bridal tradition.  The good thing is that today's brides have an array of options to choose from, especially when deciding on something blue. I've listed 5 non-traditional ways to incorporate something blue into your wedding day.

1.  An elegant pair of blue earrings will add just the right pop of color.

2.  Colored bridal shoes are a huge trend, so try a royal blue pair instead of white.

3. Keep it simple with an aqua blue diamond necklace.
