I hope everyone is enjoying a lovely spring break and delicious chocolate Easter bunnies! I know I am. Spring is definitely in the air and gardens everywhere are bursting with color. Nothing says spring quite like beautiful pastel shades of pink, yellow, blue and green. Take a cue from nature and color your wedding with soft but vibrant pastel hues. These splashes of color are sure to put a spring in even your grumpy uncle’s step. If you start feeling surrounded by flowery perfumes, try a popular twist on the wedding bouquet with one made entirely of brooches. It is a great way to incorporate your “something old” and it will last forever!

“St. Patrick’s Day is an enchanted time — a day to begin transforming winter’s dreams into summer’s magic.” ~ Adrienne Cook.
Everyone has a touch of Irish in them on St. Patrick’s Day! As an Irish lass, I love this green-tinted holiday and all the craziness that goes with it. And the holiday famous for its libations and little, gold-hoarding men is, thankfully, right around the corner. Beer, corned beef, soda bread and…beer make St. Patty’s day a perfect celebration of the coming spring. Raise a mug of Guinness this March and let the luck of the Irish carry you through the rest of year!

Ha ha ha. Ho ho ho. And a couple of tra la las! That is how you’ll laugh the night away this New Year’s Eve, like the jolly townspeople of Emerald City. Nothing says glitz and glam like a city iced in sparkling emeralds. While you probably cannot dye your eyes to match your clothes or live in an emerald encrusted palace in the land of Oz, you can incorporate emerald green into a stunning and festive new year’s eve ensemble. I fell in love with this menswear-inspired look featured on Style.com. Step out of your traditional, barely there party dresses and into an equally flattering and even more daring fitted tuxedo. Break the winter chill by adding warmth and a shock of color with a bright velvet suit coat. You will still look fierce and feminine in gold stiletto heals. Emerald green and metallic colors create a festive and fun combination to don for New Year’s celebrations.

What is it about the peacock themed wedding that we love so much? Is it simply that the peacock wedding colors – navy, teal, green, and gold, are so striking together? Or is it the feathers and the flounce, the romance that is invoked by the peacock himself? Whatever it is, we can’t get enough. And neither can our readers!
