Milla Jovovich was married over the weekend to Paul Anderson wearing a gorgeous gown of her own design. Doesn’t she look so beautiful (really more like a Greek goddess), happy, and gloriously in love! I love the free floating flowers in her hair. Hum, might need to explore that concept! Congratulations Milla!

Milla Jovovich Marries
Tuesday, August 25th, 2009A Perfect Silhouette
Thursday, August 13th, 2009I love the graphic shape a silhouette creates and fell in love with these whimsical versions by BlueClara. I especially love the thick ornate frame and deep pink background and the super cute ponytail of the first silhouette. I want to have one made of my son and another made of me sporting a hair ornament. Perfect right?! What a perfect gift this would make for my nieces as well. Oooo, I’m excited!
Amsale's Very Romantice Juliette Gown & New Naugi
Monday, August 10th, 2009My love for Amsale goes back a decade or maybe even more. Then I was taken in by the glamorous gowns (and ads) and the romanticism they invoked. I bought a beautiful pale ivory Amsale gown for my wedding several years ago, but ended up selling it and wearing another gown. Indecisive? Yes! I still look forward to seeing the new Amsale designs every season. I am in love with the bodice detail on the gown below aptly named Juliette and was just too happy to pair it with one of our new fall designs!
After designing the Rosaline Hair Ornament below I envisioned it paired with a flowing romantic gown like this Amsale. It’s a perfect compliment to the floral embroidered bodice detail. I almost attached this design asymmetrically to a headband…I couldn’t decide, still might. It looks very chic worn in flat in front. For me there are always too many possibilities (thus buying more than one wedding gown, three in fact)!
Enjoy and as always let me know if you have any questions or comments!
New for Fall – A Loosely Rolled Chignon & Delicate Leaves
Monday, August 3rd, 2009We had a photo shoot last Friday with the beautiful Ashley and so I am excited to show the first of the new fall line for Naugi! The piece featured in this romantic loosely rolled chignon is the Leaves of Grass Comb. I meant to have two of this piece on hand for the shoot because that’s how I saw it when I was designing it, as a duo of combs grouped together, but I ended up with only one and was still quite pleased. I love how the design dips into the rolls of hair in the above picture. Ashley was fun to work with and endured my poking and prodding in her hair for hours. I’ll show several pictures from the shoot this week and will start working on getting the new line up on our web site. The Leaves of Grass Comb is available now- here’s a closer look.












Dreamy Dress Sketches for Bella's Wedding in the Twilight Saga
Thursday, August 27th, 2009I was tickled to see these dreamy sketches on InStyle.com of what Bella’s wedding dress might look like in the fourth movie of the Twilight saga Breaking Dawn. When I was reading the book I wondered what Monique Lhuillier’s interpretation would be and her sketch exceedingly captures the essence of what I envisioned. So romantic! These are my favorites of the sketches…starting with my #1 choice of course…Monique Lhuillier. Enjoy!
