Trends in Apparel

This season’s wedding trends feature a strong vintage appeal that adds to the romanticism of the wedding day. Keep high hem and short veils in mind when choosing your wedding apparel.

A higher hem is very in, and allows you to play up your choice in shoes. Flush your shoes with jolts of color or floral accents or vintage inspired blush-hued accessories.

Shorter cocktail dresses and 1950′s styles with tea-length skirts and sweetheart necklines will give your wedding a timeless appeal. Birdcage veils are a growing trend, especially for these cocktail-style wedding dresses.

Trends in Color

Sun-faded earth tones such as olive green, taupe, ivory, lilac and peach offer an additional element of vintage rustic appeal.

Rich antique shades such as royal purple, navy, emerald and dark crimson contrast the natural shades with a majestic beauty.

And don’t forget about pewter grey and charcoal. Their popularity continues to grow and will be a welcomed addition to your wedding color palate.

Trends in Jewelry

Whether your jewelry is actually an heirloom or just has that appearance, vintage jewelry completes the look.

Layered and cascading lariat-style necklaces and multi-stranded bracelets provide a gorgeous accent to complement the simpler dress designs.

Bold earrings and ornate hair combs with brass filigree add detail and brilliance while the classic appeal of gold and pearls provide an elegant touch.

Rich, jewel-toned crystals, rhinestones and gemstones are gaining in popularity, especially sapphires and emeralds in vintage-style engagement ring designs.

Follow the fashion elements of the above, whatever your style, if you’re an autumn/winter bride you’re sure to be fashionable.

Diamond in the Royal Wedding

Today is a special day for Prince William & Kate Middleton-the Royal Wedding. Best wishes to Prince William & Kate Middleton. God bless the queen! In my jewelry blog I had posted an article about the wedding jewelry trend in the royal wedding last week. What will be worn at the Royal Wedding is a hot question recently. We all know that Prince William presented Miss Kate with his mother’s sapphire and diamond engagement ring, a fitting touch to honor the late Princess Diana. Diamond would be a highlight in the Royal Wedding.

A diamond is for love. It is the most popular gemstone for engagement rings, and also the gem for both the 10th and 60th marriage anniversaries. It was said that Cupid’s arrows were tipped with diamonds which have a magic that nothing else can ever quite equal. For centuries the diamond has had the unique status of being the ultimate gift of love. Today at the Royal Wedding, I believe, the diamond in the ring worn by the bride Kate Middleton would be the most shinning.

The Royal Wedding

The Royal Wedding of Prince William & Kate Middleton on Friday 29 April 2011 at Westminster Abbey attracted the attention of all. The Royal Wedding schedule will officially begin at 11 a.m., when the couple arrives at Westminster Abbey for their marriage ceremony. And the Archbishop of Canterbury talks about the importance and significance of marriage ahead of the Royal Wedding at that moment.

The upcoming royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton to take place on April 29, 2011 is not only a piece of cultural history, but a piece of fashion history. The crown? Heart or rose shape jewelry to show their deeply love to each other? … The jewelry choices made at the royal wedding are sure to be a matter of public interest. As picking the right wedding jewelry is a big choice for any bride.

Most royal experts agree it’s likely we’ll see a sparkling tiara on the tresses of this most famous bride. Because she has to. Every royal bride, from Princess Diana to the recent Swedish royal sensation, Crown Princess Victoria, has worn a tiara to their ceremony – a prized possession that comes from the coffers of their family’s personal stash. While the world will have to wait until next Friday 29 April 2011 to see Kate Middleton’s wedding jewelry picks. Looking forward to the Royal Wedding of Prince William & Kate Middleton.
