Head pieces have a sweet, yet sexy, appeal

June 2, 2009  |  1 Comment

Veil, fascinator, hat, comb or band … what’s a bride to choose when it comes to topping off her dream dress with the perfect accent piece?

As hats and other headgear slowly become de rigueur at North American social events (we’ve finally started to catch up with the Brits and Kentucky Derby goers’ fun), the options for that final, cherry-on-’top’ accessory have diversified and allowed brides to look beyond the traditional veil. Doubling up on pieces can also create a gorgeous effect.

In homage to our sugar-themed week, these pieces remind us of sweet piles of cotton candy and sugar crystals. Though they’re sweet, these pieces are also sophisticated, sexy and full of personality. The most wonderful thing about head pieces is that they can be changed or altered to update a bride’s look between the ceremony and the reception – why change out of that spectacular dress when you can express yourself with two separate looks by changing a single element?  To change up her look for evening, The 30-Day Bride changed her white fascinator for a red one after the ceremony and tossed her chapel length veil along the way.

Both of these peices are available at Pearl Bridal House
