DIY Decor: walking on sunshine.
Not sure how to decorate the aisle during your big day? Tac different toned streamers to the wall and draped them down the floor of the altar (or wherever you may be exchanging vows.) I love this idea for a spring or summer wedding!

southern bliss.
I was simply smitten with this gorgeous Austin, Texas wedding. The  adorable bride and groom hosted their ceremony and reception at the stunning Barr Mansion. I was so inspired by their simple decor- a baby’s breath lined aisle, lace embellished mason jars, simple blush roses. The entire look was sweet and simple from start to finish.

festival wear.
Music festival season has begun. Coachella has one weekend left and Bamboozle and Bonaroo are up next. I always love to see the trends that are born from the incredibly hip attendees -oh, and of course the music line-up . Not sure what to wear to you’re music fest? Here are some ideas.
Pair a vintage tee with Free People’s flare jeans and a cross-body bag or go sheer with this amazing lace mini

Which music fest will you be attending?

backyard bliss.
I fell in love with this couple’s decor for their wedding. If you have such a beautiful space just steps from your back door why not save some money and use it for your wedding?
Love their color palette as much as I do? Use it for your special day too! The pairing of blush and tangerine is perfect for an outdoor, summer wedding.
Cheers,

Jordan’s spring favorites.
A list of some of my personal spring favorites…
“Brides and Bubbly”
We just wrapped up a fabulous first day at the “Brides and Bubbly” bridal event at Veleska Jewelers. Our day was filled with champagne, custom jewelry from Veleska, Flowers by Paulette, photography packages from PhotOlé, makeovers by Patricia Solis, and of course gowns from POSH Bridal. The “Brides and Bubbly” event continues to tomorrow as well! Join us at Veleska Jewelers on the Lincoln Highway, right next to Target on Sunday, March 25th from noon till 2PM.
Here are some pictures from today!

How to wear it: The White Blazer
My favorite trend of the spring season this year is the versatile white blazer. Whether you dress it up or wear it with a T-Shirt and jeans, a white blazer is the perfect piece to polish any outfit.
A Formal Occasion
Dress your blazer up with a patterned silk dress, bold strappy wedges, and simple stud earrings.
Drinks with the Girls
Keep it chic yet laid back for a night out with the girls. Wear your blazer with a simple black T, dark flared jeans, blush pumps, and a statement necklace.
How do you wear your blazer?

beautifully understated.
POSH’s favorite twins, Ashely and Mary-Kate Olsen, continue to amaze us with their “beautifully understated” Fall 2012 collection for their fashion house, The Row. The duo was recently presented with the CDFA’s Womenswear Designer of the Year award and it is clear to see why.
We were pleased to see The Row’s signature “no-fuss” silhouettes and clean lines appear once more, letting the fabrics and color palette speak for themselves.
Enjoy a beautiful video compilation of Fall 2012 fashion show here!
