Get the Look – Butterfly

By admin on March 30th, 2006

Butterflies are this weeks choice for our Get the Look feature. Of course you don’t have to go the whole nine yards. Pick out the key items to make up a theme without looking like you are trying to hard.

We like this D’Zage dress. The wrap effect gives it a light, floating feel whilst the gathered cross-over bust is great for enhancing a smaller cleavage. Of course what really grabbed us are the smattering of half a dozen butterflies. If you look closer on the left shoulder you’ll see another column of butterflies.

Ever thought you could only wear white at your wedding? Think again. It is your day so you can wear whatever you please and if that means going for colour then go for it in a big way by wearing blue.

There are plenty of gorgeous gowns and accessories designed especially for the non traditional bride. Feeling blue at your wedding couldn’t be further from the truth with our Get The Look guide to looking fantastic. Why else would some clever spark have made up that rhyme… something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue… ?

Dress ‘Gracie’ from Special Day Weddings £399.99

"My friend is getting married in Greece, and wants quite an open sandle, with just a small/kitten heal, NO straps or anything around the ankle, and toes need to be out!

She is not a very girly girl, so doesnt want loads of sparkle or anything too fancy. And if any ‘sparkle’ has to be clear, as she has Swarovski crystals on the dress!
She has seen these shoes but wants them to be in cream, and can’t find them any where!!!!
Please, Please, Please, can you help me find some, as she is threatening to wear her trainers if she cant find any!!!!" Vikki

Trainers at her own wedding! Feel the fear and don’t let her do it anyway! Shoewawa challenged me to find me some shoes for your pal…

"I saw this gorgeous designer gown from Monique Lhuillier but can’t afford the huge price tag. Help!"

Geraldine.

Well, Geraldine, firstly you have absolutely excellent taste! This gown from Monique Lhuillier’s Fall 2005 collection may look simple but the refined elegance is all in the detail. The floor length dress itself is simple but overlaid with floaty lace with the neckline plunging into a deep vee and fastened in a halterneck. I particularly like the wide deep-pink ribbon with it’s jewelled clasp.

The eagle eyed amongst you may have also noticed the similarities in the neckline and ribbon detail to Pink’s wedding dress.

I wish I could tell you that I could find this dress in a bargain store but the only UK stockist is currently Browns Bride in London. However, I did the next best thing and came up with some dresses that are similar in style as well as the details of a huge wedding dress sale extravaganza this coming weekend!
