How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Accessories for Your Dress: Written in Louisville

To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details produce the main issue." Though Weill was likely referring to business, nothing may well be more accurate in terms of wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their own gowns which they forget about the importance of details; namely, accessories.

Wedding accessories like headpieces, shoes and jewelry add those special finishing touches to create a general image of wedding ensemble perfection. But not just any veil or satin heel can do. With a little bit of know-how, it is easy to creatively coordinate your look. Here are some tips for coordinating your wedding accessories to match your personal style.

Bohemian Chic

Flowing tresses, flowing dresses and flowers galore. This lady might be laid-back, but not with regards to her wedding style. Summer bohemian brides will like the lighting, breathable Solid Pashmina Wrap. Winter wedding? Ward off the chill in boho-chic and animal friendly style while using Satin Mid-Length Cape with Faux Fur Trim.

Let nice hair down and accentuate your tresses with the Bridal Set of Four Gardenia Flower Hair Coils. These small satin gardenias accented with delicate sprays of Swarovski crystal rhinestones add the perfect touch of sparkle without having to be overdone.

Beach or mountaintop wedding? Walk along the aisle in peace of mind in CeeCee flip-flops, featuring a comfy cushioned wedge sole and a shimmer of rhinestone detailing. Otherwise, decide on a Peep Toe d'Orsay heel having a colorful floral print and rosette accent around the front face with the shoe. Carry your necessities in style while using Victorian Frame Bag. Rich with detailed beading, this convertible (with chain strap) clutch closely resembles a classic heirloom piece.

Modern Maven

Sleek lines, hot trends and type for miles. This urban bride is definitely on the leading edge of fashion, and her bridal ensemble is not any exception. From her tailored Long Sleeve Satin Bolero Jacket to her Glitter Elongated Clutch, every accessory she selects is polished and striking.

Naturally, knowing every one of the latest trends, she pairs the Bridal Russian Net Facial Blusher Veil having a flower comb underneath. The short tulle blusher blends Hollywood glam and metro chic. For the veil-phobic, the Pinwheel Feather Flower Clip with Rhinestone Center may be the perfect option. This large, feathery accent is perfect for refined hairstyles requiring just a single flower.

Speaking of flowers, trendy brides everywhere are donning splashes of color with their wedding wardrobes. All the rage right now: big flowers. The modern maven wears the Flower Pin in crimson red. This bold eye-catcher defies traditional wedding style rules, and that is exactly the way she likes it. This is a woman who loves her shoes. For this fashion forward bride, it's Cyndi by Coloriffics lace-up sandal with 3 1/2" heel. Looks straight from a 5th Avenue boutique. Tres magnifique!

Glamour Girl

Tiaras, glitz and sky-high heels. A little bit diva as well as a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with all the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they desire, and as long as they obtain it, they're happy. And what, exactly, brings about happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a classy faux fur stole that perfectly completes the winter bride's trousseau. Next, obviously, will be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in every single color for glamour girls of every age group.

Shoes, naturally, are very important to this beautiful bride. Heels. The higher the better. The Dyeable Satin Platform with Ornament Ring Detail does not disappoint. This stacked platform is hip, saucy and comes with a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for really glam power.

Topping off this head-to-toe perfection: the Bridal Open Regal Style Tiara with Crystals. This stunner features Swarovski rhinestone flowers and -bling heaven!- multi-size Swarovski accent rhinestones. Embellishment spans 6 inches and it is one inch high, allowing her to be a true princess bride. Whether you get into one of these brilliant categories, or tend to be the amalgamation and match type, as long as you're true to your individual style, you'll look positively ravishing on "I do" day.
