Window-Shop for your Wedding with New York Magazine

May 7, 2008 | editorial team

Last week while researching the pretty Bonbon Oiseau bridal hair accessories, I came across this fun “window-shopping” feature on the New York Magazine website and felt like I had found a treasure trove! It’s called Shop-a-Matic, and it is fun, fun, fun! There are lots of different Fashion, Home, Beauty and Gift categories to pour through, and there is even a Wedding Guide featuring impressive collections of engagement rings, men’s and women’s wedding bands, stationery, registry ideas and bridal accessories. Some items are only available in New York area stores, but many items are available to purchase online, and the whole thing is super easy to use. Now if I could just stop window-shopping and get back to work!

Delicately Detailed Wedding Dresses from the Spring ’09 Runways

May 5, 2008 | editorial team

This weekend I attended the wedding of my dear friends Michelle and Chip, and couldn’t stop oohing and ahhing over Michelle’s beautiful dress. It had a fitted bodice with a simple halter neck and drop waist, but the skirt was what stole the show! It was delicately embroidered with a white on white floral, leaf and vine pattern that perfectly personified the sweetness of spring. She looked fresh and glowing and absolutely gorgeous, and reminded me of how much I love the wonderful detailing on wedding gowns!

In honor of springtime brides everywhere, here are some of the fantastically detailed wedding dresses from the recent Spring ’09 bridal runways that will make you fall in love with the season.

Bridal Hair Accessories and Boutonnieres from Bonbon Oiseau

May 2, 2008 | editorial team

I arrived at my computer this morning to such a treat! An e-mail from Deborah, designer of gorgeous handmade wedding accessories for Bonbon Oiseau and a glowing post about Junebug on her delightful blog, Your Destiny is Stone Golden. Anyone who makes such beautiful fashion accessories and tells the world that Junebug is “as glossy as a candy apple and just as delicious,” automatically wins my heart. Thanks Deborah!


Visit her site to see all of her wonderful one-of-a-kind bridal hair accessories made from vintage flowers, feathers, crystals, pearls and semi-precious stones, and to see the list of stores across the country carrying her designs. To order a custom piece, Deborah can work with you one-on-one if you’re in the Brooklyn area, or she can show you design examples over Skype if you can’t quite make it to her studio. How fun! I love the blue feathers in the Something Blue hair comb, and the sweet little flower clusters in her hair tucks. Pretty, pretty, pretty.


Bonbon Oiseau also makes creative boutonnières for guys in all sorts of shapes, sizes and materials. What great keepsakes these would make after the wedding!
