Shoes + fabulous jewelry? Oh, fo sho! Photo by Mike Larson.

I know its only Thursday, but I’m so excited for a non-working weekend that I’m already plotting an al fresco dinner party.

A farmhouse table setup under a tree? Perfection.

Linen tablecloth? Benches? An adorable puppy head? The countryside? Yes, please!

Layers of pink, ethereal feathers, hand made into the perfect haute couture hat? Sign me up!

And for a daytime look, an equally fabulous nude hat and matching dress.

A hat plus over-sized purple flower detail? Too lovely! Oh, if only big fabulous hats were still apart of everyday fashion…

To me this Alexis Bittar bangle is timeless, and would be perfect for the elegant & whimsical wedding by the beach. The gray lucite bangle mixes Swarovski peach colored crystals with hand-cut Austrian crystal fruit surround by 18k gold & rose gold plated vines. Stunning! And the best part? Once it’s graced your wrist on perhaps the most elegant day of your life, it can reappear day-in and day-out with almost every outfit; jeans & a white-tee, your favorite LBD, & a white-hued formal gowns all compliment this simple yet gorgeous piece of jewelry. Get yours here, and be sure to visit StellinaStellina later today for a peach/grey, beach themed inspiration board to match!

For the groom, I choose a light tan suit from Mission Tuxedo. A simple blue tie completed his look.

For his boutonniere, I used a  white ranunculus with three muscari as an accent and all wrapped in a light blue ribbon.

I love the idea of a chic red and white wedding with Southern charm. I picture this wedding taking place at an old plantation, where sweet tea would be served as a welcome drink and fans would be handed out to guests to cool themselves. I would mix red and white checks and stripes on the tables for a charming homey look. Rocking chairs would be setup on the porch for guests to enjoy during cocktail hour. Heirloom family love letters would be put on display next to the guest book. Apple pie and red velvet cake would be served for dessert. And, of course, the bride would wear boots.

I’m loving these floaty, short, short, cocktail dresses by Valentino. The soft gray color is divine.

I need a fabulous armoire like this for all my bedding.

Crystal handles, pearls, hand painted details– clearly this is meant for me.

I love a wedding where wheat would be used for some of the decor for a late summer, early fall wedding. White, loose arrangements of flowers would be paired with wheat in the centerpieces, and only the finest artisan bread would be served.

Mood: Rustic, elegant, white, wheat, early fall

This board’s inspiration was two-fold, but both images came from one of my favorite blogs, {this is glamorous}. I loved the photo of aqua glass which is just so delicate and pretty. Likewise, the still life of the gold shoes and accessories is just so perfectly glamorous. I picture this wedding having a delicate, timeless feeling throughout the event design.

Can you tell I’m looking for decor? And I’m, seriously, madly in love, with these pretty tapes from Japan.

There are so many places I could use this– around vases or candles, welcome bags, endless possibilities.

I kind of want them all… Avaliable here.
