Getting new dress styles is always exciting, but we also have a special place in our hearts for the Lena classics.  Like a beautiful strand of pearls, some things just never go out of style. The Tie Front dress, for example, is the first dress Lena Medoyeff put into production more than thirteen years ago. We still carry it in the shop and love it today. The “Ruthie” perfectly balances femininity and sweetness with a timeless A-Line silhouette. Of course, there are many more Lena classics. Which one is your favorite?

We are raising our glasses to this romantic color palette of blush wine and golden bubbly, which would make for a lovely bridal palette!

Whether you plan to spend February 14th on a hot date, in for a romantic dinner or out with the girls – we’ve got all the right pieces for a fabulous Valentine’s Day look!  From fun and flirty to sexy and sophisticated, you are sure to find the perfect outfit to celebrate the day of love.

This classic strapless style is shown “before” without the right bra and “after” worn with a bustier.  As you can see, the right bra makes all the difference!

Our body skimming silk charmeuse feels like butter against the skin and requires the right foundations to look and feel as luscious as possible.  Nude, seamless undies and a stick-on-bra do just the trick (as made evident in the “before” and “after” photos shown above).

While dress shopping, it is best to come prepared with neutral underwear and a great bra.  Head on over to our favorite local shops, Just Like A Woman for a variety of  undergarments and Oh Baby to add some goodies to your boudoir!

In addition to the right undergarments, alterations are also an important part of the process in making your dress fit like a glove!

For all of the “brides to be” our there, we’ve got you covered for accessorizing your bridesmaids with custom and personalized gifts!  Our locally, handmade lines of Valhalla earrings and Kelley Maria bracelets and belts can be customized to your liking.

-  Gift your girls with custom belts that coordinate with their dresses.  Belts are available in “skinny” or “wide” and come in a variety of colors and styles.

-  Accessorize with a pair of earrings in the metal and stone of your choice.  Give each girl a pair that fits her own unique style or matching earrings for a coordinating look.

-  Give your bridesmaids something that will forever remind them of this special day –  a customized bracelet with the word of your choice or your wedding date stamped onto a metal plate.

Stop by the shop to see our options for earrings, bracelets and belts that can be made just for you and your girls!

Penelope is an adjustable dress that can be worn with an ultra-low back or cinched up higher, depending on the look you are going for.

Farrah can be worn a few different ways, which gives each bridesmaid the ability to look slightly different from one another.

Emma is the most versatile of them all!  Not only does this dress come in several fabric and color options, it can be worn in a variety of ways.  Shown above in a short sleeve hand-washed silk dupioni and below in a long sleeve silk charmeuse.

 All of these dresses are one size fits all, which means there is no need for measurements or fittings.  Just throw it on, adjust and you are ready to party!

We are ringing in the new year with light and bright colors and have many new dresses to show for it.  Start the year off right with a great dress for 2012!
