Bespoken For: 2012 Accessory Trends

Things have been a bit busy in the Bespoken For studio lately!  We are overflowing with orders and that means the inspiration is flowing too.  So what will we be designing for 2012?  Well vintage is still on trend!  I think this one is here to stay for the year (at least) because as a bride you can really make the look your own, it is so pretty and what’s more it is a great tradition of something old.  So our new collection is going to be filled with vintage inspirations and lots of diamante and pearl.

Eye Candy: Golden Globes 2012 Red Carpet Review

While I’m not one to watch every award show, I do join the millions of women who must see the red carpet with all its glorious fashion.  Last night’s Golden Globes’ red carpet was no exception and, while there were many acceptable gowns, there are always a handful of stunners and a handful of complete mishaps.  Here are my picks in a few different categories.

History of Engagement Rings

Thank you to our friends at Circa 1930s for the information provided in this article.

The practice of sealing the marriage contract with a ring is a time-honored tradition, dating back to ancient times.  The predecessor to today’s engagement rings, however, wouldn’t have turned many heads:  a simple iron hoop was de rigeur in early Roman times, followed by a plain gold band some centuries later.  The significance of the ring was its symbolism, with its circular shape an abstract representation of eternity.

For most of the United States, the weather has been AMAZING!  So mild, you would think we were entering spring.  But you know it is coming!  There will be snow, slush and cold weather.  These UGGs are for our winter bride and we think they are AWESOME!
