New Spring 2015 Wedding and Bridal Collection from BHLDN

I'm always very excited when bridal website BHLDN www.bhldn.com launches a new collection and they appear to have really outdone themselves for Spring 2015!
The collection of dresses, separates and accessories has a really ethereal bohemian feel ... with a touch of the Mediterranean and in a gorgeous palette of Blush Pinks and Creams which gives a vintage but modern feel to everything.

(I just adore the dress above!)

There is lots of lace, embellishments and some beautiful fabrics plus some gorgeous matching hair accessories. With shipping to the UK and Ireland being really reasonable its definitely a website to check out either to purchase your dress and accessories or just to browse for inspiration!

Hope that's given you lots to look at over the weekend ... and remember if you are in the Exeter area then pop along for a chat at the Exeter Castle wedding fair over the next couple of days :)

Blush, Gold And Baby Blue - Alternatives To The White Wedding Dress

I have to be honest .. I've never been a massive fan of white or very pale ivory wedding dresses! I know that sounds like sacrilege to say given the tradition of these colours for weddings, but honestly I don't think that white is a particularly flattering colour on many people.
If your skin is beautifully dark or tanned then it's easier to pull off but for pasty white skin like mine its definitely a no no!
Most brides opt for ivory instead which is certainly a lot more flattering to most skin tones .. however there are a raft of other options out there and many beautiful 'pale bridal' shades if you don't want to go for full on colour.

One of my favourite U.S. Bridal retailers ( who ship to the UK ) www.bhldn.com have some fantastic dresses currently in gorgeous shades of Blush, Gold and Baby Blue which would make amazing alternatives for your wedding dress. Here are my favourites ...
