To quote legendary financier Sanford Weill, "details create the big picture." Though Weill was likely discussing business, nothing could be more accurate when it comes to wedding style. Brides often focus so intently on their own gowns that they can overlook the importance of details; namely, accessories.

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

Glamour Girl

Tiaras, glitz and sky-high heels. A little bit diva plus a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with 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, means they are happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a classy faux fur stole that perfectly completes the wintertime bride's trousseau. Next, obviously, may be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in most color for glamour girls of every age group.

Shoes, needless to say, are necessary to the 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 features 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 is also 1 " high, allowing her to become a true princess bride.
