    I’ve been on the hunt for a pretty pair of earrings for my wedding look. The Diamond Shape Filigree Earrings would be just right.

  2. avatar Rochelle M reply

    I absolutely love the blue topaz pendant with diamonds. The simplicity of the design would make the perfect “something blue” for my wedding attire. All of the bling accessories are very understated and elegant. Thanks for the feature!

  3. avatar Amber reply

    I love the blue topaz cocktail ring, it would definitely be a statement “something blue” piece!

  4. avatar davonne reply

    I would rock the BLING! Blue Topaz Earrings with Diamonds! So beautiful and eye catching. I love it!

  5. avatar Linden reply

    It is so hard to settle on just one favorite, but I narrowed it down to the diamond or round filagree earrings…. From there, I think I need a daisy to play the grown up version of ‘he loves me, he loves me not’ except substitute in ’round, diamond, round, diamond, round….”! Either way, I’d win! LOVE this brand! Thanks for the intro… I know what will be on my birthday wish list! I only wish I’d known about them sooner so I could have ordered something for my sister’s wedding THIS weekend!!!!

    the green amythest ring is so so elegant and beautiful. thank you thank you!

  32. avatar Shari reply

    Hands-down – I love the Bling! pearl and diamond bracelet. Pearls: something so beautiful – yet the source is an “aggravation” – a tiny piece of sand. And diamonds – the strongest gem. Is it true that it comes from coal? Something so plain an uninteresting? Just like love and marriage – and life! Sometimes we have to look beyond, and deeoer into the plain, wait out the uninteresting, and make the most out of the tiny aggravations.

  33. avatar Allyson reply

    My favorites are the Bling! round filigree earrings with matching pendant. It’s a classic set that can be worn anytime of day for work or formal evening occasions. But I have to be honest, I also loved the smoky topaz ring. It is HOT!

  34. avatar Lauren Smith reply

  37. avatar Susan reply

    I absolutely love the understated elegance of her hairpins collection! I would have to choose the Baroque hairpins because my Carolina Herrera gown is ivory with light beige accents, so a hint of gold would go perfectly!

    I love the Illissa hair pins. Perfect for a lot or a little glamour. Beautiful work!

  3. avatar Hannah reply

    I’m currently in the process of looking for veils to match my wedding dress! What a great site! The Etta veil is to die for.

  4. avatar Ashley Morgan reply

    The Priscilla Veil is absolutely to die for! The detial on the bottom of the veil gives it a very classic and elegant which screams which is perfect for my romantic style wedding!

  5. avatar Erin reply

    I love a good hairpin or hair flower! I keep catching myself starting at the Lani hair flower–it’s feathery, flowery, and all around fabulous! It turns a romantic look a little bit funkier while still being formal and elegant all at once!

  6. avatar toviah reply

    everything is beautiful! i love the veils!

  7. avatar Jennifer Mitchel reply

    I love the Anise veil. It’s exactly the look I am going for!

  18. avatar Mary reply

    I’m absolutely loving the Cadence hair band! (http://www.laurajayne.com/HairBands&Tiaras.html). It’s just perfect! It’s classic and has just the right amount of sparkle without being too overpowering. It’s demure and soft and has a tiara like quality without actually standing upright like a tiara does. It’s a nod to the princess look for a more modern bride.

    It looks like it could also double as a sash as well and I love that it’s so versatile.

  19. avatar Caroline reply

    I think one of the hair broaches like the Harmony would be perfectly elegant and classic for a royal wedding!
