gorgeous-ness happening at felice

Dear ladies at  Felicé Bridal,

I know we are all happily married {as do you, since we bought our dresses there}, but can we come and play dress up with your couture Romona Keveza gowns?

With love,
jessica, jenna and jodi of tutto bella

Just kidding. We wouldn’t do that to ya’ll, but these beautiful gowns are tempting us.

Romona Keveza continues to amaze us once again with its stunning 2013 couture bridal collection, available at Felicé Bridal

The elegant seaside resort of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in the French Riviera in springtime served as inspiration for this Spring Couture Bridal Collection. The gowns are swoon-worthy with luxurious ivories, pearl, white, ice blue and one finale show-stopping gown in signature “Romona Red.”

Lovely, perfected details to note are the belts embellished with Swarovski crystals,  couture-ruched lines that drape so elegantly on the female figure and sculpted origami flowers.

say yes to the CHRISTOS dress

The holidays bring out the romance in everyone, so it seems to be a popular time of year to ‘pop’ the big question. Congratulations to all you newly engaged couples! Now that you have a sparkly ring on your ring finger, you can start planning the wedding of your dreams. Dress shopping is on high on your list of ‘bridal to do’s,’ so make a mental note of our next designer, CHRISTOS, and make an appointment at Felicé Bridal today to feel the fine French lace and silk organza in between your pretty little engaged fingers.

Our fave bridal salon, Felicé Bridal, owned by mother-daughter duo Robin and Karen in Colorado, has added the CHRISTOS Collection to their list of designers. The romantic collection, originally established by Cyprus-born designer Christos Yiannakou, is now under the creative direction of Amsale. We love us some Amsale…after all, Jodi’s dress was designed by the fabulous designer. The CHRISTOS line, known for its feminine use of organza, tulle and heirloom Alencon Lace, evokes a feeling of fairy-tale, femininity and romance.

Prices range from $4,500-$8,000. Look here to see the entire collection, then call Felicé Bridal and let them know the dresses you want to try on…if they don’t have it in the store at the time, they will get it in just for you.

looking pretty in plum pretty sugar

I know I seem to have a new obsession every week – I just can’t help it. My new obsession and item added to my wish list is…

a Plum Pretty Sugar robe {knee-length, beckoning creatures print robe to be exact}.

I just dream of putting this on with a hot cup of joe or tea in hand and curling up on the couch to read a good book….or who am I kidding, the latest issue of People Magazine.

Or, even in my reality of a hectic morning routine packing lunches and snacks, getting the kids fed, dressed and out the door for the day’s activity…if I were wearing a Plum Pretty Sugar robe {instead of my ragged old t-shirt and sweats}, I would feel pretty and feminine…and that is essential for a woman and mom!

For all of you brides out there, a Plum Pretty Sugar robe is the PERFECT bridesmaid gift {or gift to yourself}. And, what lovely photos the day of your wedding. You and all of your maids can feel pretty and pampered on the wedding day, and everyday after when you put it on. You can buy your maids matching sets, or get everyone a different color to spice things up. Whatever you choose to do, I promise, your maids will love you forever for giving them such a lovely gift.

Jacey, our fabulous girlfriend over at Damsel in Dior, gave each of her maids, her mom and herself a Plum Pretty Sugar robe to wear while getting ready for her wedding day {if you haven’t seen her wedding video by Lovespun Films, please do yourself a favor and see it here. Or, if you haven’t seen gorgeous photos of her wedding day, click here}.
