Disney Princess Series; Ariel

I feel a little sad that the Disney Princess series has ended. I really enjoyed putting together the inspiration outfits.
Recently, I watched The Little Mermaid II. I have to wonder about myself. ha! Girls obviously never grow out of the princess stage!

My favourite part of this outfit, are the coloured tights, and the re purposed spoon ring! Quirky! {follow the link below the outfit to see individual items}

I hope you enjoyed the Disney Princess Series!
Stay tuned for more goodies.

Disney Princess Series; Jasmine

I think Jasmine is the most forgettable of the Princesses. I think it may have something to do with the lack of a Meringue Gown.
Jasmine is still pretty awesome, though.
She is best friends with a TIGER! Hence the Raja inspired necklace selection. =]

I am in LOVE with this colour combination! The rustic green, with the biscuit is so complimentary and the gold mixed in gives the outfit a classier edge.
I can see this outfit in a destination wedding, you could even swap the shoes for some green flip flops!


One more princess to go! Which has been your favourite so far?

Disney Princess Series; Belle


Good evening Brides! I hope you are enjoying my Disney Princess  Series.
Today's instalment is My Personal favourite Princess - Belle! I love her for her bookishness, and have tried to incorporate that, with the ADORABLE Great Gatsby Book-Bag. I love quirky, unexpected Items. [Especially in Weddings!]
My faves in this outfit are the afore mentioned bag, and the Cogsworth  inspired necklace choice. =D

Beautiful Belle!
I am very much in love with the shoes, too. I want to add them to my wardrobe!

Who is your favourite princess?

I cant resist but add some Beauty & The Beast!
Enjoy!

Disney Princess Series; Aurora {Sleeping Beauty}

Below, is my Aurora inspired outfit.

Disney Princess Series; Aurora








I think that the outfit would lend nicely to a Bridesmaid. The berry red of the dress is such a delectable shade, and makes a great statement. Would go fantastically with a wedding theme of rosy pinks & ecru.
The black shawl accentuates the black on the waist of the dress, and I can picture it being worn as a shawl over the shoulders, or maybe hanging at the elbows of your bridesmaid. {It is also a nice wee reference to Aurora in the forest! See below!}

Disney Princess Series; Cinderella

Good evening Brides & Vendors!

I've been wondering for a while what inspiration I could post for you next. Then I had a dress fitting this morning.
I would be lying if I said it hasn't made me excited.
How, I hear you ask Is she going to tie this in with inspiration, rather than a garbled mess of words on how excited she is for her own Wedding?

Well, my dears, I felt like a Princess. My dress isn't even finished, and it made me feel a million dollars. Feeling like a Princess is something, I hope, that every Bride gets. On that note, I thought; What better way to get inspiration, than from the best Princesses EVER!? I'm afraid I'm not talking about Diana or Katherine, though I'm sure there are plenty of Wedding blog posts out there about them.
I am talking about Disney Princesses.
I dare you to look me in the eye... well, screen, and tell me you have never wanted to be Aurora.
Ah! See, you wanted to be a Princess when you were younger too!

Stop rambling, Woman! I hear you cry.
Very well.
I am creating Inspiration Boards on my new found obsession {yes, I am aware that i am several years behind the rest of the world} Polyvore!
So here we have it. The Disney Princess Series.

Today is my take on a Modern Day Cinderella.

I still love the Coloured Wedding Dress trend, and think a minty green/blue is a subtle take on it, and a nice alternative to white.
Follow the link beneath the board to access all the information on the items, and stay tuned for the next Princess. Who's it gonna be?!

It's been a long time...

My, my my. What a year we have had!
Things are still not back to normal, and I fear it is still to be a while until life is back on a steady track!
Blogging is, I'm afraid not too high up the list of things to do, but I will really try to do as much blogging as possible!

The wedding is SO close. Three months to go! I really wish I was more organised!
We have had a bit of a hiccough with the venue. =/ 
It has turned out to be more damaged by the June Earthquake than was originally thought, and is subsequently yellow stickered (restricted access) this means that the beautiful dining room will not be accessible for the reception. With such a short time frame, finding another place is out of the question. We are having a marquee set up on site, which while it is not ideal, is still a venue and a roof over the heads of our guests. I will work to try and make it as beautiful as the house interior!
Damage to the bedroom. [This is where I was going to get changed on the day. =( ]


But for now, On to the goodies!

Good News for Vintage Lovers, Christchurch! 
Tete a Tete and Two Squirrels Vintage sadly have been extensively damaged in the earthquakes and The shop locations are within the cordon. Vanessa & Warren are saying goodnight to Tete a Tete - But there is some good news in this story! Two Squirrels Vintage will be re-opening at a currently secret location, on the 2nd of September. Almost a year to the day of the first earthquake.
I wish Vanessa & Warren the best of luck, and look forward to shopping with them soon!
Keep updated by checking out their blog here; Two Squirrels Vintage.


On the inspiration side of things;


Ice & Paprika Inspiration Board.
This would lend so nicely to a winter wedding. The obvious Icy cold Blue, with a Spicy Paprika Orange to warm things up! Textures would be a great addition to this palette, or even a bit of a pattern. [LOVE the Tartan shoes & Bow Tie!]
Please enjoy! =]
