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

Beach or mountaintop wedding? Walk around the aisle in security in CeeCee flip-flops, which has a comfy cushioned wedge sole plus 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 vogue while using Victorian Frame Bag.

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 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. 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 and a lot delightful, many glamour girls get pegged with the "bridezilla" label. Deep down, they're simply misunderstood. They know what they need, and as long as they obtain it, they're happy. And what, exactly, brings about happy? For one, the Fur Wrap, a stylish faux fur stole that perfectly completes the wintertime bride's trousseau. Next, naturally, may be the Stretch Satin Elbow Length Glove. A must in every single color for glamour girls of all ages.

Shoes, of course, are essential to 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 comes with a sparkling rhinestone brooch accent for added 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 " high, allowing her to become a true princess bride. Whether you fall into one of these categories, or are more a combination and match type, as long as you're true to your own private style, you'll look positively ravishing on "I do" day.
