Like her gown, her invitations will dazzle friends and family with sweet and sophisticated charm, incorporating motifs from her wedding destination for a touch of fun.

With winter and the holidays upon us, nothing appeals to me more than jewel tones.  I have been obsessing over various clothing items, promptly added to my Christmas list, and I’ve noticed one constant theme–deep, vibrant color.  Now, it’s your turn to get inspired with my inspiration board.  Happy Holidays!

I have an unhealthy obsession right now with anything that is grey, particularly slate grey.  I love it with any variety of colors, but for the upcoming winter season, I especially love it with a light blue aquamarine.
