Elegant Bling: Kirsten Kuehn Designs

There are times when I get an email from a designer and when I look at their designs, I am blown away. This is one of those times. I absolutely adore Kirsten Kuehn and her gorgeous designs. I call it Elegant Bling because the designs have that bling factor but are so elegant and classic. She has a wide array of wedding accessories including garters, sashes, headpieces, bracelets, barrettes/combs, and bouquet wraps. Here are few of my favorites but it will be so hard to pick something because you will love everything!

Shoes, Glorious Shoes: Lanalia Shoes

I love shoes. I love it more when I find fab bridal shoes that are modern and totally do not look like traditional bridal shoes. So I am going ga-ga over these shoes by Lanalia. First of all, they come in a wide array of colors. That will work for you and your 'maids. Bonus - you can also get the Swarovski crystals in a variety of colors. Now if you can't create a shoe to match your wedding color scheme, then I don't know what to tell you. See the entire collection for yourself, but these are my favs.
