J’adore Paris

Paris 

 

1.  Audrey Hepburn is classy and sophisticated. If she thinks Paris is always a good idea, then it must be a good idea.

2.  Two elegant women having lunch at a french cafe, who wouldn’t want to be in their shoes?

3.  The Arc de Triomphe is at the center of Paris. Twelve radiating avenues travel toward this monument. It is a must-see when visiting Paris.

4.  Paris would not be Paris without the Eiffel Tower. It is hard to believe that it was almost torn down for being an “eye-sore.” I took this picture on my trip to Paris last year.

5.  A French Manicure is classy and will look good with any outfit. You can DIY with a coat of blush nail polish, and a strip of white polish on the tips of your nails.

6.  Vogue Magazine has been guiding women’s fashion since 1892. The French edition unconventionally depicts new and noteworthy fashion.

7.  I absolutely love this picture. Every girl dreams of gazing at the Eiffel Tower in a romantic dress.

8.  Love in Paris, there are not many things sweeter than this.

 

Au revoir,

Hope

 


Blush.

My favorite trend for 2012 weddings is the color blush. When paired with gold or nude this soft pink color scheme will give your wedding a soft, beautiful, and regal look. Use blush on your wedding dress, cake, table settings, wherever! I simply can’t get enough of this color.Blush.

 

Cheers,

Jordan
P.S. “Ariel,” the blush, tulle wedding gown featured in this spread is available at POSH Bridal!

looms.

Check out this fabulous video of how POSH’s lace is made. The process shown in the video is very similar to to process of our French suppliers, except in france the looms are “oiled” with graphite which makes the lace black, the lace is then boiled and cleaned. Enjoy!
