Day 28 of the Full Circle Eventi challenge is Vintage Glam, which is one of my all-time favorite weddings styles. For this particular inspiration, I chose a silver and gold color palette with pops of deep blue-green.
The style is elegant and glamorous without being over-the-top. The ceremony is draped with dramatic white and gold fabric, while green decor adorns the chairs. The long dining tables are dressed with a textured silver runner and white feathers are added sparingly to the white centerpieces, while the napkins, wrapped in gold rope and crystal, sit atop antique gold chargers.
Popcorn in fancy shimmery holders is passed during cocktail hour and the ornate vanilla cream cake gives guest a little sugar rush to help them dance late into the night.

Happy Valentine's Day, lovers!
To celebrate, I'm sharing my Valentine's Day wedding inspiration, which includes gorgeous jewels from Brilliant Earth, who asked me to participate in their Valentine's Day Style Challenge.
Not only does Brilliant Earth design some drop-dead gorgeous sparklers, but they're also dedicated to socially and environmentally responsible sourcing, so all of their diamonds and engagement rings are ethically sourced - how great is that? Everything they do is of the highest standards and they even donate 5% of their profits to directly benefit communities harmed by the jewelry industry. I would highly recommend checking them out - you might even find some gifts for your bridal party!
I started my design with Brilliant Earth's 18K white gold petite shared prong diamond ring and their 18K white gold pave heart diamond stud earrings - totally loving those. From there, I added lots of full red and pink blooms, heart details, and pops of silver and gold, for a fun, sophisticated, modern wedding filled with tons of beauty and love.

I'm absolutely loving these black and white woven t-strap shoes by Christian Siriano. They are part of his Spring 2014 collection and they are just perfect - between the texture, the shape, and the shiny silver stiletto, what more could you ask for?
