60's Red White and Blue Dress

Polka dots are fun!  This red and white polka dot dress is eye-catching and the pearls are so First Lady like.  Reveal your exuberance in a sophisticated kind of way !

60s Red Polka Dot Dress

The two piece dress below is an 80’s style.  It reminds me of the 80’s soap opera, Dynasty actress Linda Evans because of its attached shoulder pads.  I was always an admirer of Linda Evans because of her ability to adorn her wardrobe in spite of her height and broad shoulders.  To all the tall broad shouldered Lovelies out there, you can also stride in style!

Accessorize any of these outfits or one of your own with these fabulous jewels and handbags.

Vintage Bridal Gowns

The bridal gown is a crucial element of the wedding planning process because the dress represents the essence of the bride.  Everyone knows that wedding gowns are outrageously expensive and with the economic times we are faced with as a nation, budget weddings are becoming more popular !  The wedding planning process is overwhelming enough as it is, so Lovelies consider purchasing a vintage bridal gown.  Vintage gowns are classic and affordable. 

The bridal gown shown below is antique laced and slightly beaded.  It is a classic because it reveals romance and true femininity and most importantly it represents something that has been lost in time and that my Lovelies, is tradition.

Victorian Style Wedding Gown

The gown below is sheer elegance with a hint of tradition. 

Vintage Wedding Dress

For the winter bride, this elegant, metallic, swirled patterned, floor length, brocade coat is gorgeous ! 

Envision a winter wonderland wedding theme with sparkling white lights all around, the groom waiting for his bride as she arrives in a carriage of white horses laced with red roses and the bride as beautiful as the winter snow arriving in her beautiful gown with this almost white, very detailed coat, everyone would think this was custom made for the bride!  No one would have to know our little secret!  If not for the bride then it would be a great fit for anyone in the bridal party.  No need to fear this coat is not confined to a wedding it can also be worn to dinner parties, theatre, opera, ballet, anywhere during those cold winter days.  Lovelies I highly recommend this coat………I assure you it is a beauty!
