Roberta and I were meeting with a wardrobe stylist when we heard the news of Kate Spade passing. In memory of all the beauty she created, we wanted to share our favorite Kate Spade wedding pieces. Kate Spade has always been my go to for special gifts for engagements and wedding showers. When she first came out with the "pop, fizz, clink" merchandise, I started to really fall in love with the brand. The packaging, the specialty pieces, and even the shoes. I owned one pair of Kate Spade heels and let's just say I wore them longer than I should have. I bought them at Kate Spade Millenia in Orlando and they were just so comfortable and added that pop of color to my solid black wardrobe. My first "designer" purse was a Kate Spade. I still have it and haven't been able to part with it quiet yet although I've moved onto larger purses that allow me to carry more of my belongings.

I'm a minimalist when it comes to jewelry. There are days I don't wear jewelry with the exception of my wedding band. Roberta on the other hand is always rocking her latest Henri Bendel piece or custom earrings Erin Cole.  When it comes to wedding day, I'm a firm believer in a complete look including hairpiece, bracelet, earrings, veil, and garter.  When else will you get to be so fancy? Here are my top tips for styling your wedding dress without feeling like you are overdoing it. Simple is always elegant after all. 

During my decision to open up The Bridal Finery, I continued to think about these women. They really led me. I saw their strength. I saw what they accomplished out of a small loan as little as $70. I saw how their business was flourishing and how they were able to better provide for their children
