This is a fantastic bridal make-up look. The feature eye shadow has a lot of depth and works well with a ’no fuss’ styling. Simple hair styling and a clean look to the top of the dress leave a little room for accessories. Featured in this set is the Bow Tie Tiara band. http://www.prettyperfect.net/products/bow-tie-tiara £105.00

Still the best primer around
I have raved about the Smashbox primer for a long time now, and have recommended it to so many clients.
Until recently Smashbox has been a little hard to get hold of in the UK and www.justbeautydirect.co.uk have been a reliable source.
Fab news! Smashbox counters are popping up in some Debenhams stores, so keep your eyes open for them.

Beautiful vintage style bridal hair accessories and style ideas.

Made to order vintage style tiara band.
Vintage style is chic and enduring. I have taken a few ideas from vintage pieces and created some designs using new materials. Using new components means that brides can alter the design to fit their style.
These dresses are fab, capturing graceful elements of some retro styles.
Inspirational floral motifs, textures and embellishments, creating an elegant but not too safe style.
