Posh Accessories

How better to follow up a post about using dryer lint in wedding favors? Yes, purely posh accessories guaranteed to delight you on your special day (and beyond) and bring a big-big smile.

Some accessories we LOVE:

• Fabulous bags---- little clutches for brides (and more) that are not overly cutesy, very fashion forward, and tremendously popular. Try Nelle bags from Minneapolis designer Laura Nelli.

• Fantastic veils---- vintage, distinctive, unusual and tres chic---- from Distinctive Veils & Accessories. Love a bit of a pillbox hat, and the veil here is "birdcage style", both combined for max effect!

• And the last luxe pick for the moment is fab jewelry, perfect for the Big Day (or beyond)--- from Heather Moore Jewelry, yum.

While I love the loose charm/vintage/crafts style of the necklaces at H. Moore, what really blows me away are the cuff links. They are all just incredible------ any male in your wedding party (or the groom) would be lucky indeed to own!


***And the last blurb IS a freebie------- keeping your diamond engagment and wedding rings look sparkly, fresh and brand spankin'! In a small container with a tight lid mix a couple drops of dishwashing liquid, 5 tablespoons of water and 5 tablespoons of clear ammonia. Drop in your rings (and anything from the diamond family) into the mixture and soak for an hour or so, even overnight. At the end of the bath, remove from the mixture and give a brushing with an old toothbrush under a stream of water. Dry completely and wear your gorgeous "new" rings!
