Peacock Wicker Chair Trend Alert

This has got nothing to do with weddings really, but everything to do with being a thing of beauty! Wicker peacock chairs are on my radar, big time! My love for them exploded whilst i was sitting getting my hair done in Paris and saw this super-sexy photoshoot (row 1 below). Then when i arrived at my friends place to watch the royal wedding, what was sitting on her patio?... a vintage peacock chair!! They remind me a lot of my Mum and her funky style in the 70's. How amazing would it be to see one of these used in a fabulous engagement shoot, or a bohemian styled bride perched upon one. I could sooo see Elizabeth Messina using a peacock chair in a Delphine Manivet catalogue shoot. Love it !!

2011 Summer Collection by Collette Dinnigan

I'm a bit late in writing about this... but it's not really going to matter much, because the 2011 Summer collection by Collette Dinnigan is stunning no matter what season !! I adore the delicate, feminine lace detailing. Everything is so 'girly' and princess fairytale like, yet completely fashion forward. Personally i think this is Collette's best collection.
