Finger Waves

Finger waves have always been a favorite of mind for your big day or for a black tie event. Here is a softer version of a finger wave with a contemporary look that hugs your face (cause I know we all like to have our hair covering our face) this is a happy medium, keeps your mum happy but lets you be comfortable with your hair.

I COULD JUST DIE!


As I was skimming along through Galliano for Christian Dior I was slowly dying. Fuschia, orange, cream, leopard, PEBLUM, horsehair, faille, moire, birdcage, lingerie... this is Fall of 09 couture.

I'm a one man woman, Galliano inspires me like no other.

When I saw this piece, my heart literally stopped and I had to gasp for air.

Thank you for trying to kill me.

Floral Arrangement

This bride still wasn't please with the gown she had purchased, she felt as though it needed something more. So my mother grabbed our bin of hand made flowers and arranged this beautiful design which completely transformed the gown!

Becky in Satin and Lace

Here is a great group of photos from another client Becky! She sent me all of these amazing photos and I couldn't decide which ones not to put up so I'm putting them all up!  She had deep Gerbera Dasies as her flowers which really pop in the photographs.  The bodice of her dress has lace at the empire waist and the rest of the modified A-line/trumpet style gown is dutchess satin with buttons down the back.  She looks like she is having a blast!
