More Hair inspiration

Here is a hair-do that I found while browsing the wedding forum. The hair jewellery is apparently an Ebay find for £10 and I love it. So beautiful, feminine, big and still simple. Once again I come back to the words Understated Elegance which I want to describe on my wedding day and which I think describes this hairstyle. Soft waves, simple braids and the hair piece that ties it all together makes a very pretty bride. It's not quite what I picture for myself, but it's definitely giving me the right vibes.

Papilio Hair Inspiration

As I mentioned in an earlier post, Papilio doesn't only have amazing wedding dresses, but amazing styling as well. I've picked a few of my favourites above. I'm yet to decide how to wear my hair as it depends on how much it will grow out until the wedding and also what kind of wedding dress I will be wearing. This is amazing inspiration for the future!

Flower Crowns

When I first started looking at dresses and outfits for the big day I was dead set on something royal and fit for a castle. However after spending a lot of time finding out what kind of wedding would be right for us I have found that this royal look would feel totally out of place.

At the moment we are looking at an outdoor, relaxed summer wedding. Decorated with buntings and wild flowers, with a buffet of gorgeous summer food. So naturally my outlook on how I want to look as a bride has changed dramatically. I now would like to look like a beautiful nymph, understated, elegant and one with nature. THE dress that I'm still in love with, is actually from a collection called 'Nymph'.

These flower crowns/wreaths would complete the look nicely. My mum actually suggested for me to have flowers in my hair when we talked about the wedding (I don't like to talk to much about it with family and friends as I don't want their opinions to override ours), but at the time I rejected the idea. I didn't think it was elegant enough (at this stage I was still thinking royal castle). Maybe mums do know best? Anyway, at the moment I do really like the free spirited look of the women above. With the right kind of dress and in the right setting, it would be beautiful.
