The eclectic mindset

-

Greetings from the glamour world. I'm coco glamour and I want to introduce you to my closet. 

Growing up I tried to fit my "style" in a category which in theory makes shopping a lot easier to do when you know what type of clothing suits you.
Are you 

A) punk rock
B) vintage Monroe 
C)  preppy
D) sporty 
E) All of the above


 I find myself gravitating to the pretty in pink looking clothes with pastel and glitter but in the same moment a vintage old school patterned dress, a pair of 90s highwasted jeans, a 1930's feather headband, and a fall out boy graphic tee would all end up in my shopping cart. 
Oh and let's add the African inspired tunics, plaids, stripes and cat paraphernalia ( nothing like a sweater with kittens on it ! ) 

Call me crazy or call me eclectic but it works. You just have to pair the items in the correct combination for an epic style of your own.

I didn't know there was a such a thing as having bridesmaidZILLAS... Or persons who are just as dramatic as the brides themselfs. Ladies if your bridal party brings you to tears something is horribly wrong. The ladies you choose to be apart of your special day are suppose to be a support and comfort to you. Not a source of stress and cause of much irritation.  If there are problems and misunderstandings yes they can be fixed but everyone must understand that all final decisions belong to the BRIDE and GROOM. Nothing else matters Saying yes to the dress The bride will ask her girls how she looks and it's our job as either maid of honor or a brides maid to tell her the honest truth. However, we are not there to pick out what dress we'd wear to our wedding because news flash, It's not our wedding at all.  Knowing the line between being helpful and awful is often overstepped. It's not completely our fault though. Speaking from the point of being a Maid o...

Pre-wedding jitters aka the countdown

So the countdown of four months begins....the journey of the great beyond!  Lol does anyone remember that land before time movie? Anyway, it seems like time is flying and there's adventure at every turn.  Planning is so fun for me, not so much for him. I'm using every waking moment I can to make sure my wedding is perfect and elegant. Picture this- A romantic 50s theme with pastel colors, lights, candles and pretty balloons; these ideas fill my mind swirling like pinwheels. I dream about the absolutely amazing decorations, flower arrangements and unique center pieces that will so daintily set the tone for the evening.  Yay I'm so ready. But not really because there's still so much to do. The more I plan it seems like I'm not getting very far. I hope things come together when all is said and done.  The check list may be super but I have accomplished some major things. Always look at and be grateful for the things already achieved. That way, even if there's other ...

The floating veil

Why are veils so expensive??  I mean I guess I can see where the cost comes from for the really long veils with crystals  sewn on but really for the average veil to be 200 dollars that's obsurd in my opinion. I haven't seen a veil worth that much yet.   The ones at David's Bridal look ordinary, don't include any valuables precious jewls, and arn't made of gold or silver. So why all the fuss?  True you can find veils online or maybe at a discounted price when there's a good sale going on but how about a free veil! Thanks to a loving sister both my best friend and I will be using one very pretty veil on our wedding day. This is why it's a floating  veil. It goes from house to house and will have made 3 woman very happy. Now if I had to I would go searching for a super awesome veil but when you have such awesome people in your life you get  blessings along the way.  Ladies, don't be ashamed or to proud to take a "hand me down" iteam. If anything y...
