Stunning bridal gowns paired with dowdy shoes from granma’s closet; I love the idea of being a comfortable bride, but hate the thought that a lot of women wear nicer shoes to other people’s weddings than they wear to their own! Most sensible bridal shoes are just too plain-jane for my liking; women shouldn’t even have to choose between being stylish and comfortable anymore. One order of comfy heels please!

Outdated mother of the bride collections: I love vintage inspired gowns and elegantly tailored pieces, but I hate the ancient yawn-worthy imposters that pretend to be stylish options for moms of the bride. Moms want to look chic and sophisticated too which is why I simply adore the collections by Mon Cheri and Cameron Blake.
Average bride syndrome: I love the fashion forward bridal designers and the stunning gowns they churn out season after season, but I hate that their gowns are mainly suited for the ‘average bride’ of a certain height and weight, which leaves all the not-so-average brides scratching around for a flattering wedding gown. The Body Conscious Bride series on my National Examiner page should be helpful for brides searching for their perfect gown.
Princess barbie tiaras: I love the added sparkle and glam of a tiara but hate the fact that the majority of them look like shiny plastic crowns that belong at a dress-up party. Less is more when it comes to bridal hair pieces, you dont want to look like you just stepped out of the Chronicles of Narnia ( even thought I loved the books when I was a child)
And finally I love Fridays but hate how fast the weekend goes by… Take care my darlings and hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

i really like your blog

ReplyDeletethis is a GORGE post! adoring the round up!I think mums of brides have no excuse being frumpy what so ever!
also ugly bridal shoes are heinous! the bride cant have anyone "out-shoeing" her! she can always change into chic ballet pumps when her feet get sore.
