From Inspiration to Reality: The Design

Now for the really good stuff. The inspiration board that Style Circle member So Much Love designed was kind of perfection and the photoshoot that resulted was perfection taken to an entirely new level. Heather Waraksa and Xochitl of Always a Bridesmaid approached the board in two parts…starting with a sexy boudoir shoot that they did before the “wedding.” And I am kind of dying over it. So gorgeous, so girly, so unbelievably steamy and romantic.

I mean…insanely beautiful right?? The vintage perfume bottles (which would be so amazing re-used with a single stem for the actual wedding), the lingerie pants by Doucette Duvall that are so freaking cute I would wear them to a party. Dying over this. And what an amazing gift for your hubby on your first anniversary. Boudoir photography is becoming huge these day and with this shoot…I am officially a fan!

   OMG I'm obsessed! This encompasses all my favorite themes: it's glamorous, it's edgy, and it's romantic. How could you not fall in love with this?! I'm especially charmed by those shoes and her earrings...gorg.
