A blog about love & sparkle
Beautiful stuff on this website. It can be sorta pricey, but definitely worth it. Their work is quality work and still a bit cheaper than ordering from a bridal shop. Plus they can totally customize the work they do. For example, they made my tiara into a back piece to be tucked into my hair.

My new place to find inspiration is Pinterest. I just found it, just joined yesterday, and have already logged hours of picture gazing. Denmark based Japanese paper artist Yuko Takada Keller is my first “I love this like crazy” find! I love these large installations for the pattern, texture, and light.
Come join me on Pinterest! We can pin and repin together!
Our newest fabric flower… the FIRST BLUSH flower comb. Hand made of layers and layers of silk, and a tuft of the softest blush tulle. Tuck in a side chignon, or request a brooch pin and wear as a corsage or on a sash at the waist. Perfect for the first day of summer.
Happy Solstice!
Have you seen the Knot Summer 2011 issue? I am thrilled to say it features three Naugi pieces in the editorial for this issue!

Thanks to the super, super nice group of people over at the Knot!
May’s wish list is all about touches of gold, loose fitting garments to accommodate the baby bump, and a little vintage thrown in to keep things exciting. I haven’t worn a watch in about four years, which works for me most of the time, but honestly being on time is a challenge for me, so… I think it’s time to begin wearing one again. It can’t be too expensive because I am hopelessly hard on watches, bracelets, and rings… this over sized Fossil is perfect. I’m in love with this vintage Hermes bracelet. Unfortunately, it disappeared from my favorites on Etsy and I don’t remember the seller’s name. I’ll keep looking… I love it! I’m pretty sure if I get this flowy jersey chemise I might wear it every other day. Everyone in my life would like to see me wear something other than yoga pants for the next six months! And, the bag… well it speaks for itself, doesn’t it? So do the sparkly flats. I love scarves, even in summer. This light wight pale toned Julia Hill is a beauty. Lastly, the ring… I won’t get it because the price tag is um… just a bit high. Yes, it is, but isn’t the pear stone delicate and lovely?

The Royal Wedding Fashion Review
Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011Kate Middleton made a beautiful, elegant, ultra romantic bride! Her wedding gown and reception gown, both by Sarah Burton, the creative director of British fashion house Alexander McQueen, exuded an understated romantic elegance. She was so gorgeous! I love that her style obviously reflected her own taste. Any modern day bride could pull elements from her look- lace, soft romantic hair, understated tiara, or the in season flowers, for their own wedding. Above the fashion, she truly seemed happy and gracious toward the attention she received. Just lovely, and so adorable too!
Her Cartier tiara (on loan), was made in 1936 and was purchased by The Duke of York (King George VI) for his Duchess (The Queen Mother). Queen Elizabeth received the tiara from her mother on her 18th birthday. The sparkling tiara held Middleton’s transparent veil, made of ivory silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers.
I love tiaras and headbands just as much as any Princess! Our Night at the Museum Headband is one of my favorites… it’s not quite as tall as Kate’s, which makes it a bit more accessible to most brides. Oh… and it’s made with Swarovski crystal, rather than diamonds!
Are you planning on styling your look after Kate? Certainly, everyone should wear her smile. Beautiful!
