This is one of my favourite times of the year! Not only because of the beautiful change in season – whilst you are looking forward to Fall, here in New Zealand the days are getting lighter, the trees are blooming with delicate blossom and its sweet scent fills the air. But, whilst that makes it…

I don’t know about you, but if there is one thing I am looking forward to in October, it is the latest and last (*sniff*) series of Downton Abbey! Whilst I can hardly imagine my Chistmases without the glimpse into their glamorous lives, I can’t wait to find out how it all ends for the Crawley clan. And…

Following last Monday’s DIY ‘Alice in Wonderland’ themed wedding (I do hope you didn’t miss it, because it was the sweetest celebration with an afternoon tea reception!), we’re starting this week with another pretty DIY affair! This time the couple’s pretty garden made the perfect venue for their vintage garden picnic wedding, and with a beautiful…

I must admit this is one of my absolute favourite times of the year! Not only because of the beautiful change in season, but also because its around this time we start to get early glimpses of the beautiful new bridal collections. I can’t help it, there is little I love more than perusing the latest exquisitely…

Today’s vintage wedding inspiration shoot, brimming with romantic Edwardian details, was created by a super creative team of wedding pros who believe that inspiration for your wedding can come from anywhere. Theirs just happened to be found within a beautiful old historic country estate….. This swoonworthy shoot brimming with vintage wedding ideas was inspired by and took…

Whilst perhaps not what we would consider conventionally beautiful by today’s standards, today’s Chic Vintage Bride has nonetheless utterly bewitched me!….. I think its those big beautiful blue eyes! Eleanor Wilson, daughter of President Woodrow Wilson, married William Gibbs McAdoo (the Secretary of Treasury), in the Blue Room of the White House on May the 7th,…

Claire Pettibone has long been a favourite of mine! Her collections, with her distinctive signature style, are always so full of the most feminine and ethereally elegant wedding dresses that it is quite simply impossible not to be charmed and captivated by them. Designed with a hint of the Art Nouveau era, and not lacking in beauty or…

Yay, I am so honoured, chuffed and beyond excited to be sharing with you today the first reader submitted Chic Vintage Bride! What does that mean? Well, usually I spend hours scouring the internet for a pretty dress, a familiar name, the perfect picture of a happy bride & groom to share with you each…

Today’s Chic Vintage Bride is really more of a Chic Edwardian Wedding, but it is so fabulous I just had to share it with you…..

Good morning! I don’t know about you, but I can’t quite believe it is Friday again already?!

Morning! And welcome to Wednesday, hump day, and of course Chic Vintage Bride day! Clarissa Tennant was said, by Dame Barbara Cartland no less, to have been the most beautiful woman she had ever seen…..

Eeek, I have such an exciting post for you this morning – so exciting in fact that this post is more than a little unexpected and unplanned (you’ll have to wait until later for the post I actually had planned for today, but believe me it is one inspiration shoot that is worth the wait!)…

Who could forget Belle & Bunty‘s 2013 collection, with its feminine, flirty and flattering designs of sumptuous silk and satin (so reminiscent of that Atonement dress) Well, as jaw-droppingly gorgeous as it was, I do believe it has nothing on their 2014 bridal capsule collection! The Belle & Bunty brand has long been synonymous with understated elegance, and…

I couldn’t get yesterday’s beautiful Edwardian Chic Vintage Bride out of my head (did you see her? Wasn’t her dress utterly exquisite?) So feeling all inspired by the extravagant and opulent ‘Belle Epoque’ period, one of my absolute favourite eras, I pulled together this little teaser of an inspiration board…… Alphonse Mucha Champenois, Wedding Dress ~ Jolie by…
