Style Feature, Zoey Catherine Accessories, features many beautiful options for the bride looking for that special and unique accent piece.

Vanessa + Chris : Middle Ranch Wedding

Today we feature Vanessa & Chris who were married at Middle Ranch Lodge, located on a 650-acre horse ranch bordered by the Angeles National Forest. From the rustic elements in their flowers and decor to her simple strand of pearls and classic birdcage veil, it was an incredibly intimate wedding with a truly vintage touch.  

Color Palette : Perfectly Minted

Mint green... clean, refreshing, subtle. This inspiration board features mint as a background note against muted blues, soft grays, and classic ivory.  It's a simply irresistible color palette - perfect for spring and summer weddings.

Trend Watch : Hair and Makeup for 2012

I think these trends will be perfect for me this year! According to Stephanie Rosenbloom's article in the New York Times, " stiff coiffures, overdone eyes, defined lips and matte skin are out. Tousled hair, smudged eyeliner, dewy lips and luminous skin are in". As a business owner and mom of two toddlers with another baby on the way... I think I can do this. I know many of you can relate. Check out the article. I really do like the more relaxed look and think it is perfect for our wallets as well as our schedules!
