As fashion designer, Michael Kors, once said, “I’ve always thought of accessories as the exclamation point of a woman’s outfit.” Well, based on that logic, your wedding day ensemble should be no different. Transform your bridal wear with accessories of your choice and let your personality shine through.
Shoulder accessories
If you’ve purchased the most beautiful, simplistic, strapless wedding gown, why not add a flare of glamour with a shoulder necklace? Sitting elegantly on the neck and shoulders, such accessories should only be used against a classic, plain gown to really transform your look from drab to fab!
Anklet
Gone are the days when anklets were only something purchased by school girls in the summer time! If you’re lucky enough to be jetting off for a sunny beach wedding, walking barefoot down the aisle with a classy anklet glinting in the sun is a perfect, discreet addition to your accessories to include on your big day!
Hair accessories
A dropdown headpiece was a popular choice for the brides of 2014 and will be going nowhere for 2015’s brides-to-be! Quite like the shoulder jewellery, a headpiece is a fantastic addition to a simplistic wedding style and hairdo. Due to their popularity, stunning headpieces and hair accessories can be found in many boutiques all across Ireland.
Shoes
Style Queen, Victoria Beckham, once declared she couldn’t concentrate in flats, and a stylish pair of heels are certainly called for on the day of your wedding! If you’re looking to go for something a little different though, why not try on a coloured pair of heels for size! A peek of a red Louboutin as your gown sashays or an in your face killer pair of stilettos paired with a cocktail wedding dress will certainly get guests talking and earn you some massive style points on the day. You could also opt for blue shoes to become your "something blue" on the day.
Gloves
This particular accessory is possibly suited to the more style-adventurous bride! Gloves are one of the biggest and most versatile fashion statements to wear on your big day and whether you choose elbow length, a loud colour, or a fingerless style, you’re sure to create an impact in the bridal fashion stakes.
