Guide of Wedding Accessories - Written in Saint-Jérôme

To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details produce the overall dish." Though Weill was likely speaking about business, nothing may well be more accurate with regards to wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their own gowns that they ignore the importance of details; namely, accessories.

Wedding accessories like headpieces, shoes and jewelry add those special finishing touches to make an overall 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 may be laid-back, however, not in relation to her wedding style. Summer bohemian brides will cherish the light, 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 while using Bridal Set of Four Gardenia Flower Hair Coils. These small satin gardenias accented with delicate sprays of Swarovski crystal rhinestones add the best touch of sparkle without getting overdone.

Beach or mountaintop wedding? Walk on the aisle in security in CeeCee flip-flops, with 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 of 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 well used heirloom piece.

Modern Maven

Sleek lines, hot trends and elegance for miles. This urban bride is obviously for the leading edge of fashion, and her bridal ensemble isn't exception. From her tailored Long Sleeve Satin Bolero Jacket to her Glitter Elongated Clutch, every accessory she selects is polished and striking.

Naturally, knowing all of the latest trends, she pairs the Bridal Russian Net Facial Blusher Veil which has 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 perfect for refined hairstyles requiring simply a single flower.

Speaking of flowers, trendy brides everywhere are donning splashes of color on their wedding wardrobes. All the rage at this time: big flowers. The modern maven wears the Flower Pin in crimson red. This bold eye-catcher defies traditional wedding style rules, which 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 beyond a 5th Avenue boutique. Tres magnifique!

Glamour Girl

Tiaras, glitz and sky-high heels. A little bit diva along with a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they really want, make sure they get it, they're happy. And what, exactly, ensures they are happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a classy faux fur stole that perfectly completes the winter months bride's trousseau. Next, needless to say, could be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in every color for glamour girls of every age group.

Shoes, of course, are necessary for this beautiful bride. Heels. The higher the better. The Dyeable Satin Platform with Ornament Ring Detail will not disappoint. This stacked platform is hip, saucy and incorporates a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for additional 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 is one inch high, allowing her becoming a true princess bride. Whether you belong to one of these brilliant categories, or will be more the amalgamation and match type, as long as you're true to your individual style, you'll look positively ravishing on "I do" day.
