What’s Inspiring Diana: Polka Dots

 

1. polka dot blusher veil from etsy// 2. fabulous polka dot dress via tumblr// 3. handbag from kate spade
4. vintage pumps via Pinterest // 5. michelle roth’s wedding dress to die for // 6. polka dot tie for the gentleman via Gia Canali 
7. sassy polka dot tights from marc jacobs //8. carolina amato gloves

I don’t know what it is about polka dots but there isn’t a polka dot pattern that I don’t love! Maybe it derives from our constant fascination by Kate Spade and her easy-to-love designs and ensembles, or maybe it’s my love for Roy Lichtenstein’s notorious pop art. I find them to be so fun and versatile-they can be preppy, charming, sophisticated, playful, and downright glamorous! If I can find a way to wear them or incorporate them, I will!

XO!

Things We Love, Vol. #6

Boy, it is cold and windy outside today. We’re working on an amazing winter themed wedding photoshoot for you which I can’t wait to share. In light of the recently snowy situation here in Connecticut I thought it would be the perfect time to share some winter inspiration! Grab some hot cocoa and a chunky throw…

Loving this Evergreen, Silver and Citron color story / inspiration board from Flights of Fancy.

Style Me Pretty recently featured this amazing wedding in Beaver Creek, Colorado. Also totally loving this winter inspired engagement shoot.

Our friend Nina, who is the knower of all things petite and fabulous, shared with us her amazing christmas decorations this year. Check them out! Oh Joy! also featured some of those amazing christmas bulbs on their website. Why do I love these so much?

S’mores are perfect any season, but especially during the winter months. Elizabeth Ann Designs blogged about these amazing s’more favors. It is all about packaging. It makes the mundane extraordinary! I also love this felt rosette wreath they posted too. I’m in love with ruffles this season!

The Party Dress created an amazing inspiration board for a Martini and Mistletoe soiree. Yes please!

These hand made snow flakes remind me of elementary school…. and Elf! Such a great way to decorate the house (and inexpensive)!

Snippet and Ink posted their newest board, Baby it’s Cold Outside. Makes me want to have a winter wedding!! I’m also loving the slight retro feeling of their other board, Ivory and Evergreen.

and last, but not least…

Yes, I know. I’m not sure if this is winter inspiration but I had to post about it. I’m looking forward to the day when a bride hands me this picture and says, “Candice, design a wedding for me around THIS!”

A girl can dream, right?

These amazing pieces of love fueled art have inspired me and I wanted to pass them along. These are limited edition art pieces by Coulson Macleod. They are handmade, vintage-style, oak framed prints on white-washed wooden panels. I really love them. I’ve always loved typography has art. Visit their website to learn more and see additional pieces. These would make an amazing gift to your significant other or as a wedding gift.

Things We Love, Vol. #5

 

The above is an editorial / love shoot that was photographed by Kellan Studios. I love the styling and the accessories!! Don’t be afraid to go all out and do something incredible like this for your engagement session. It’s soooo worth it!

I’m totally inspired by this colorful room full of different textures on Apartment Therapy. It reminds me of the style of my first apartment in college. Expect an inspiration board on this soon!

This gorgeous contemporary yet vintage wedding on style me pretty. I just love yellow weddings!

These printable airmail invitations are so cute and fun! Have you visited Vintage Glam’s transformed and new blog, Ruffled yet?

Green Wedding Shoes posted the amazing country / modern wedding of Rebecca & Jason. I adore the cakes!

This paper chandelier from Pottery Barn is so much fun! Oh So Beautiful Paper inspired us with it — I’m going to do something with these in an upcoming photoshoot!

A purple inspiration board by Creature Comforts is my favorite for this week. Love the lavender, muted colors and feel!

The Party Dress posted a great artichoke place card holder — with the top sliced off and the interior hollowed out to make room for a tealight. Love it! I love using food as candle and place card holders.

Junko Yoshioka’s studio tour on brooklyn bride was so inspiring! I love the light, styling, and pure white everywhere. It’s like a bridal dream world. Wouldn’t you love to try on dresses here?

Happy Sunday!! xox
