Wedding Gifts for Guys- Creative Cuff Links

March 12, 2008 | editorial team

I kept running across photos of these super cool cuff links made from the actual old wooden seats from Wrigley Field, RFK Stadium and Yankee Stadium (baseball lovers rejoice!) so I finally went to check them out at Eco-Artware.com and found a treasure trove of other cool cuff links made from recycled materials. How great would any of these green gifts be for your groom or groomsmen to wear?

 

For the city guy- cuff links made from old subway tokens from New York, Chicago, Boston, D.C. and San Francisco.

 

For the writer- cuff links made from vintage typewriter keys. For the gamer- cuff links made from old scrabble tiles and dice. For the collector- cuff links made from buffalo nickels, Indian head pennies and mercury dimes. And for the gadget guy- cuff links made from vintage watch movements. So fun, and eco-friendly to boot!

Spring Wedding Shoe Extravaganza!

March 7, 2008 | editorial team

After watching the trailer for the upcoming Sex and the City movie about, oh, a zillion times (I’m so excited!!! Will Carrie and Mr. Big really get married?) my sister sent me a link to a behind the scenes look at the movie’s wardrobe department and costume design by Patricia Fields. Heaven! Now all I can think about are shoes, bags, dresses, and more shoes. So in true Carrie Bradshaw style, I’ve compiled some seriously fashionista-worthy spring shoes, perfect to punch up your wedding day fashion.

 

Soft and creamy white, beige and metallic shoes are hitting the stores this spring, and will add glamour to any kind of wedding look. I adore all the high ankle straps, and the over the top sparkle of the sequins covered Christian Louboutin peep toe pumps!

Bold designs and rich, bright colors are also a trend I love for a gorgeous wedding shoe look. What fun to see these peeking out from under your wedding dress!

And a special treat for Seattle area shoe-a-holics, Bellevue’s best shoe boutique Posh on Main is turning 2 years old this weekend and celebrating by giving customers 20% off their entire purchase, plus yummy POSHtinis and chocolates, and the launch of the Diane von Furstenburg spring shoe collection from 12-4 on Saturday. While you’re in the neighborhood, run around the corner and help Rachael and her team at the beautiful La Ree Boutique celebrate their 1st anniversary too! They’ll have 20% off discounts, champage and a Jada Designs Jewelry trunk show for you to ooh and ahh over and get your weekend started off right. See you there!
