To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details create the real picture." Though Weill was likely talking about business, nothing are often more accurate with regards to wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their gowns which they neglect the significance of details; namely, accessories.

With a little bit of know-how, it's easy to creatively coordinate look. Here are some tips for coordinating your wedding accessories to match your personal style.

Let your hair down and accentuate your tresses using 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 around the aisle in peace of mind in CeeCee flip-flops, which has a comfy cushioned wedge sole plus a shimmer of rhinestone detailing.

For the veil-phobic, the Pinwheel Feather Flower Clip with Rhinestone Center will be the perfect option. This large, feathery accent is designed for refined hairstyles requiring just a single flower.

Speaking of flowers, trendy brides everywhere are donning splashes of color on their wedding wardrobes. All the rage right now: big flowers. The modern maven wears the Flower Pin in crimson red.

Glamour Girl

Tiaras, glitz and sky-high heels. A little bit diva plus a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with all the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they really want, and as long as they have it, they're happy. And what, exactly, makes them happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a sophisticated faux fur stole that perfectly completes winter months bride's trousseau. Next, obviously, is the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in each and every color for glamour girls spanning various ages.

Shoes, naturally, are necessary to the beautiful bride. Heels. The higher the better. The Dyeable Satin Platform with Ornament Ring Detail won't disappoint. This stacked platform is hip, saucy and includes 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 fall under 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.
