Ideas for Choosing Wedding Accessories for Your Dress: Written from Brossard

To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details make the main issue." Though Weill was likely discussing business, nothing could be more accurate in terms of wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their gowns which they neglect the significance about details; namely, accessories.

Wedding accessories like headpieces, shoes and jewelry add those special finishing touches to make a standard image of wedding ensemble perfection. But not just any veil or satin heel can do. With a little amount of know-how, you can creatively coordinate 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 could be laid-back, and not in terms of 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 using the Satin Mid-Length Cape with Faux Fur Trim.

Let your hair down and accentuate your tresses with all 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 being overdone.

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

Modern Maven

Sleek lines, hot trends and style for miles. This urban bride is usually for the innovative of fashion, and her bridal ensemble isn't 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 each 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 could be the perfect option. This large, feathery accent is ideal for refined hairstyles requiring simply a single flower.

Speaking of flowers, trendy brides everywhere are donning splashes of color to their wedding wardrobes. All the rage today: 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 plus a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged using the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they want, and as long as they understand it, they're happy. And what, exactly, ensures they are happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, an elegant faux fur stole that perfectly completes winter months bride's trousseau. Next, needless to say, may be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in every color for glamour girls of all ages.

Shoes, obviously, are very important to this particular 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 incorporates a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for extra 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 1 inch high, allowing her to be a true princess bride. Whether you fall into one of these simple categories, or tend to be more the amalgamation and match type, as long as you're true to your very own style, you'll look positively ravishing on "I do" day.
