Stylish Wedding Hair :: Side Ponytail

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Side ponytails are a way of keeping your hair out of your face but still showing off your long and beautiful locks!  Whether it is full of curls or loose and romantic, your hair will give off a playful but glam look.

This is one of my favorite side designs shown below.  I love how it is less curly than the others, but still offers volume and style to the overall look.

Hair Design :: Peacock Feathers

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

If you are planning your wedding decor around one of these beautiful peacock feathers, then you do not want to miss out on adding this dramatic detail to your attire.  Find one that fits your style and complements your dress, whether is full of color and texture or simple but still fashionable.

I love how this hair piece below gives the illusion of peacock feathers but still maintains the bridal white appearance.

If you are looking for a more abstract hair design, avoid the typical peacock colors or bridal white and find a peacock design in a funky color. Pick one that maybe matches another color that you are tying into your event.  The hair piece will pop against your white dress in pictures!
