Don't forget to get your entries in for the Lost & Fawned Jewelry Giveaway! I've added some new pieces to my shop including felt brooches (a great gift for mothers and bridesmaids) and these lovely little Kate Earrings (I own a pair myself). 
Just a few more beauties from the JCrew Fall 2009 Wedding Collection Preview. I've started working on some palettes for these dresses and I'm super excited to share them on Monday! Stay tuned for that as well as the winner of our Lost & Fawned Jewelry Giveaway! Next week is going to be fun, so stick around!
JCrew has recently released their preview of the fall 2009 weddings collection and I can't wait for the catalogue to come out. It look like the colors are going to be absolutely dreamy and delicious (as usual) and the shapes are going to be very soft and ethereal.
Today and tomorrow I'm going to feature a few more pieces and then I'm working on some palettes of my own to go with these gorgeous gowns! Stay tuned, especially if you are a fall bride in need of some inspiration. You know I have a thing for color.
As promised, here it is the first Lost & Fawned giveaway! In celebration of my re-opening and soon-to-be 50th sale, I'm giving away a $20 gift certificate toward anything in my shop. This includes my custom bouquet lockets and Jill Earrings. 
As promised, here is an interview with Jo, the artist behind La Petite Chaumiere, a new and promised etsy shop.
Started re-stocking my shopfront. Here are a few of my new pieces for 2009. Above are my Jill Earrings in white a gold, a simple bridal earring at a reasonable price. These also come in silver and antiqued brass and I do them in custom colors for bridal parties.
Our invitations aren't QUITE ready, but should be by early next week. So instead here are my other accessories (other than my earrings and bracelet which I've already posted). 
My shoes were purchased a few months after I selected my dress and will look so lovely peeking out of the bottom on the beach. I knew I wanted something flat (I have enough trouble not falling on my face on a daily bases, let alone on a beach with heals) and gold and when I saw these on Zappos.com I snapped them up right away. They are by Poetic License.
Hopefully I will have more to show you later this afternoon. All my other accessories are under wraps until the big day (so Jared can't see them). If something comes in the mail today though I'll have to share this afternoon. We'll see!
Next week I'll be featuring the upcoming artist behind La Petite Chaimiere and her gorgeous hair adornments! For now she is offering FREE shipping today on any of her hair accessories! Check out her etsy store for details!
We finally ordered Jared's suit for the wedding. We knew from the beginning even though it was beach wedding he was going to wear a suit. And we knew that a black suit wasn't quite right for the feeling of our wedding. So we started hunting for a rentable suit in tan. The hiccup came when we finally found one, the smallest size they carried in pants was a 32 waist. Of course those had the horrible adjustable waist and he and his brothers would have all ended up looking ridiculous (add the fact the fit to the broadest measurement on the jacket and his broad shoulders would have caused him to be swimming in his jacket). So we decided to purchase Jared a suit and have the groomsmen wear this alternative.
Time for a shameless plug... Since school is out, I've started selling on etsy again, which means my custom bouquet lockets are also back in stock! I started making these last summer and they became so popular I had to stop making them during the school year in order to make time for school work.
