Drawing a blank for wedding palate inspiration? Pantone have declared Turquoise as their Color of the Year for 2010. Adding a splash of color by way of shoes or accessories could be a lovely way to infuse some fun into the day.

Vintage Treasures

I absolutely love The Carole Tanenbaum Vintage Collection which can be found at http://caroletanenbaum.com/index.php.

Carol is a purveyor of fine costume jewelry and has been adorning ladies like Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Obama, Natalie Portman to name just a few.

Her work is a collection of wonderful pieces she has uncovered over a 25 year period with items dating as far back as the Victorian period. Her fabulous costume jewelry allows us to pay homage to the past but also gives us the opportunity to recycle and be somewhat “green” (well that’s what I tell myself anyway!).

Not much to say but take a look.
