Wedding Shoes Colored Blue

When you have decided to have a blue color scheme of your wedding celebration, you should as well consider a blue wedding gown and the blue wedding shoes to match your attire, in case you do not want to go for the traditional white ones. But OK, blue comes in various shades, therefore you should consider what sort of blue have you decided upon: the light blue, the royal blue, the turquoise or nay blue?

So the first thing to determine when looking for your blue wedding shoes is the color as you need to know what are you shopping for. It is a fact that not many brides choose to pay attention to the minor details that are integrant part of the overall bridal aspect, such as jewelry, hair accessories, pantyhose and shoes, considering that either design or color they have can work with the wedding dress. They do not consider that these details deserve in fact so much attention, not to mention to spend more money on these ones as well. Well, who can blame them if one sees the matter from their point of view with so much expenditure to make for this celebration?

But apart from the budget wedding planning brides, there are others who consider every part of the bridal attire of being of the same importance with the wedding gown. And wedding shoes are part of their concern, too. So, for the brides who have their blue colored wedding, the blue wedding shoes are of a great importance. This is why you should coordinate all the elements of your bridal aspects to fall into the same harmonic note, such as it is with the flowers. You should consider the flowers you are holding in your hand to match the blue of your wedding shoes.

This can be done in two ways: either you hold a bouquet that is made of blue and white (or yellow) flowers and the shoes should be of the same blue color with your flowers, or you can choose not to hold any choice of blue blooms, but rather deep purple with yellow and white and some greenery and blue wedding shoes to go with the same blue of your wedding gown. Make sure at whichever decision you come, to have the same shade of blue as in this way you can keep that harmony of your bridal appearance with the rest of the ambiance of your wedding celebration.

1930`s Bridal Dresses

Fashion has been adapting nowadays lifestyle more and more. Fashion keeps changing season after season, year after year. It is also said that trends repeat themselves with every 20 years. Of course, with some modifications, but basically it comes back the same. Go and ask your mothers or grandmothers if they used to wear at some point of their life what you are wearing now if you don’t believe me!But have you ever thought of how fashion presented itself years ago? What was before nowadays fashion? What was trendy, what was “en vogue”?

First of all, wedding dresses of 1930s are being shown to us with longer lenghts, about four inches belowe the knee. The 1920s cut skirts very short, but the fashion designers of the 1930s thought it’s best to give up the mini skirts. Therefore, the preferable length for sleeves was long too. Sometimes, the sleeves were puffed.  Secondly, the wedding dresses were worn with something on the bride’s head, named a headdress, made of lace usually. It was a sign of purity and innocence.

Furthermore, the waistline has begun to shift upward. So a new type of silhouette was advertised according to the new fashion trends. Bias cut was also used along. The middle thirties took the length of the dress somewhere near the ankle, and the dress was worn with a bodice on the waist. Some even had trains. Lace and satin were some of the preferd fabric the gowns were made of. The hats also changed their form to keep up with the fashion of the 1930s. And some brides wore them.

It is estimated that a 1930′s trousseau was worth somewhere around 390$. It included the wedding gown, probably made of satin, a veil, which was never excluded, a 3 piece going away suit and a suitcase of other items which amounted to more than 5 types of dresses, a full coat, jackets, lingerie and more sundry items. More details can be found here, also along with other examples of fashion trends of the 1930s.

It’s not too different from the wedding dresses nowadays that want to imitate the fashion of those years, is it? As we can see, elements of couture form 1930s are still being used, with little transformations. And then again, try to imagine a wedding dress like the ones above, accessorised with some fine jewelry and a beautiful bouquet. Most of the bouquets of those years were made with white lillies, as a symbol of purity, but this wasn’t a rule. Shoes never had high heels, but medium or small ones.

In my opinion, 1930s fashion showed a woman that was still a child or at least considered a child that was starting her life just then. Little skin was shown. You could call these wedding dresses as being pretty much sober. But would you wear such a dress? Do you think it could rise up to the expectations nowadays fashion has?

The Mermaid Style of a Wedding Dress

Mermaid wedding dresses have always been considered very elegant and specially created to convey the appearance of a bride a unique and memorable look; that look that stays for ever imprinted in the timeless frames of dear memories. The following features are the ones to make the mermaid style of a wedding dress to be favored over the other four commonly known styles: Princess style, sheath/column style, ball gown and empire style.

* The mermaid style is when the silhouette of the dress outlines the body from the chest line to the knee for after that to flare out to the hem.

* Due to this cut, the mermaid wedding dress looks very sensual as it highlights the curves of the body of which the bride should be very confident when deciding to go for this style.

* The mermaid style of wedding dresses can go for almost all the necklines as well as for the sleeves lengths, in this way being able to reveal or to cover as much as you as a bride are comfortable with. In case you need to show as much of your skin you can choose the strapless neckline or you can opt for a halter that is designed with a plunging v-neck to emphasize the seductive side in you.

* The overall aspect of the mermaid wedding dress is most of the times influenced by the choice of the skirt style. Thus you can chose a wedding dress that the skirt flares out above the knee, or one that can flare out at the knee or below. This skirt positioning has an influence on both the overall aspect of the wedding gown and on the symmetry of the body’s proportions as a visual effect. This is a feature that bride needs to pay attention to as the shape of the body has a lot to say in this aspect.

* The hem together with the skirt will bring various effects as a round skirt will bring volume to the lower part of the dress and a trumpet flare will create volume that flows out behind as the bride walks forward. The mermaid wedding dress can come as well with the flamenco flare of the skirt that brings the dress a Spanish touch and the bride to wear it a special elegance mixed with the feeling of flexible moves.

Along with all these features, brides need to understand very well the way their body is built as the mermaid wedding dress style is not for everyone. This style is more suitable for slender figures both tall and short. Due to the fact that mermaid wedding dress is the one to contour the body it is not appropriate for the future brides who are plus size although till a certain extent they can be altered to look sensual on them as well.

Bridal Gowns on Discount

The option of a discount bridal gown has always been a choice for the brides who are in search of an affordable wedding gown that is at the same time elegant and dream-like designed.

Wedding dresses in the fashion industry follow most of the time the same pattern: to be with every year re-invented in a format that can constitute the on-fashion of the year to come.

Therefore many fashion designers involved in bridal fashion as well will remain faithful to this pattern releasing every year new models of bridal gowns that are worth being worn by the richest brides in the world.

So, as it happens with everything that comes being classified as new in the fashion world will have to replace the old, and as such what was new this year will become old at the latest at the end of the fall of the same year. Generally the new models that are about to be on fashion for the next year are released previously for the people to know what are they supposed to wear in the year to come.

The consumers on the fashion market have to know what is there to wear for them to be trendy and updated with the most recent new comings in the world of fashion.

The old items that are about to be replaced will pretty soon become items to be sold on discount. Since the wedding dresses follow the same rule with the new style of the next year’s trends, there will be the old wedding gowns that need to be replaced by the new models, and as such what is old has to be sold under the label of discount bridal gowns.

Now, let us be fair: do you really think that if you would buy a discount bridal gown that is considered already a design one year old, one can make the difference?

There won’t be a soul among your wedding guests to say “Hey, look, the bride is wearing a design one year old of a wedding dress!”. Actually in the bridal fashion is rather hard to distinguish which model belongs to last year fashion or the one to belong to this year.

The reason is the style of a wedding dress which is similar to any other year, only the fabric and the combinations of these fabrics and details can bring something new with every year, otherwise, they usually look the same.

Now you can not argue as this aspect is seen from afar, especially if you consider the fact that the vintage wedding dresses are still preferred nowadays as models that are seen as one-of-a-kind in the modern days of sophisticated designs of a bridal fashion.

For instance, some say that Renee Zellweger’s was the best while others chose Melanie Trump’s as the most beautiful and classy celebrity wedding dress.

The truth is that when compared, the styles of these two celebrity wedding dresses are totally different, especially if we consider the theme of each wedding celebration.

While Renee’s wedding theme was the beach themed celebration she couldn’t have possibly worn such an extravagant wedding dress that Melanie Trump has chosen for her stylish and expensive wedding celebration.

But let’s see who were chosen for the top of the celebrity wedding dresses:

No.1 – Renee Zellweger – she worn an ivory colored wedding dress, with a fitted format of the strapless bodice which style was counted as the best among the celebrity wedding dresses chosen for beach themed wedding celebrations.

No. 2 – Sandra Bullock – who worn a creation of Angel Sanchez in a A-style wedding dress with a strapless ruffled bodice and antique white lace to complement its elegant bridal appearance.

No.3 – Melanie Trump – was dressed in a Christian Dior wedding dress with a fitted strapless bodice and a ruffled A-line skirt presenting a 16ft long train. One can hardly imagine how was sh supposed to take a turn wearing that extravagantly long train, but after all it is a  Trump we are talking about here, so everything has to lead to much more and more expensive.

No.4 -  Tori Spelling – presenting a body fitted wedding dress that was sprinkled with crystal beads having at the same time the appearance of a traditional wedding gown envied by every woman.

No.5 – Britney Spears – she wore a Monique Lhuiller wedding dress creation that had a handmade train and a veil in the cathedral length.

No.6 -  Demi Moore – looked very pretty and not at all her age when appearing in front of hr groom – Ashton Kutcher – dressed in a Jeanne Lanvin creation with a floor length wedding dress in a sheath style and jeweled straps attached to her top.

The dress appeared as a simple and unique design, but worth being envied by brides at Demi Moore’s age.

No.7 – Jennifer Aniston – made quite a stir with her celebrity wedding dress that many considered it a wedding gown to die for!

It was a Lawrence Steele creation with white tulle embellished with tiny pearls in a halter style.
