The Great Accessories Debate

Let’s relive, for a moment, a memorable day in 2008. You’re in a packed church, the sun is shining, Brody is still dating Jade, Justin Bobby cut his hair and OMG is that Kristin Cavallari?! Yes, everyone, we are journeying back to “The Hills” for Spencer and Heidi’s wedding. I got sucked into a Hills marathon recently and about 8 hours later (don’t judge me, you know you’ve lost a whole day to that train wreck too) Heidi and Spencer’s big day was upon me once again. Now, being a wedding professional, I looked at that episode in a whole new way. Forget the LC and Kristin drama…look at that DRESS! I must admit, Heidi’s gown had it all; it was gorgeous, classy, elegant and impeccably tailored. True to Heidi form though, she couldn’t leave well enough alone and she piled on enough bling for FIVE brides. For me personally, it was over the top and took away from her soft, romantic gown. What did you think?

Ahh the good old days…

Ultimately, it doesn’t matter what I think, and shockingly enough, Heidi did not call to ask my opinion. For that reason, all brides should take a page from her book (but probably only that page, don’t even look at her chapters on men or plastic surgery). She did what she wanted and was true to herself, which is how every bride should approach her accessories decision (and really any wedding related decision).

No matter what you decide, we’re pretty sure our fabulous accessories designer, A.B. Ellie, will have something for you! Her gorgeous accessories range from bling-tastic to soft and simple. Not seeing exactly what you want? She’s always open to tweaking her designs to suit your individual taste and style. We are obsessed with her; every Flair consultant who has gotten married (so far) has had some A.B. Ellie gorgeousness with her on her big day. So, give us a call to stop by and drool over her pieces with us. There’s something for all of the Heidi’s, LC’s, Kristin’s and Audrina’s out there!
