Neutrals couldn’t be hotter right now – pretty obvious if you watched any of the Academy Awards this past Sunday evening… The Oscar fashions were a reflection of a trend LOLA featured at their recent open house – so we’ll say they were copying us! Our vignette was titled “Reflections of Love” and spoke to our love for all those “almost” pastels that create such a sophisticated and modern palette, and all the textures and shimmer that crystal and diamonds make when they sparkle. Actresses like Rachel McAdams, Cameron Diaz and Sandra Bullock (photos from Extra TV) were walking versions of this same trend. A million subtle shades of champagne, lavender, pink, white, ivory sparkle and shimmer… just like an engagement ring – the perfect inspiration for you wedding! Mix this formal color palette with fun details like a suspended centerpiece or a ‘crumb catcher’ that puts a fun spin on sharing “fun facts” about the bride and groom with their guests. Whimsy, glamour and sophistication aren’t mutually exclusive, ladies! (Inspiration images from Martha Stewart Weddings, CS Brides, Grace Ormand)
