We Love: Peter Som for BHLDN

So many things we love this week, mostly wedding-related links and Academy Awards fun. Enjoy, and have a beautiful weekend!

So gorgeous! BHLDN is making Peter Som wedding gowns! Click through our slideshow above for the first 2 looks!

These dresses from the RED Valentino fall-winter collection would make the most legendary, high fashion bridesmaids ever. Via 79 ideas.

Got 6 minutes for a sweet, Oscar-nominated romcom?

Years ago, we read in the NY Times that the secret to hangover-free celebrations is cocktails that combine clear spirits with a vitamin C mixer. It works! For an Oscar night signature cocktail, we want to try this. (It’s bright and beautiful for a spring wedding, too.)

Ever watch wedding dances on YouTube? We do. This one’s a classic. So much love.

How cool is this? Fair trade site 7 Hopes United now has a gift registry.

Want to go somewhere totally different for your honeymoon? Prague looks like a photographer’s paradise.

And here’s every single item we’d want for the trousseau on Stripes & Sequins. The perfect little collection to make a bride feel beautiful.

Thanks to Forbes Magazine for mentioning us!  They picked 22 jewelry designs for 2013, including our Tilly Engagement Ring!

We Love: Flower Girl Dresses & Signature Cocktails

Brrr, it’s cold out there! Great weekend to curl up with a good read, a great cake and a spectacular cocktail. Check out our list of all that and more. See you Monday!

If you don’t have a fireplace to cozy up to, this little luxury is totally justified.

How incredible would this Chanel nail polish collection look with your Jeff Cooper rings? We can’t imagine a more perfect wardrobe of nail colors.

A gluten free cake we really want to eat! Made with kabocha squash, too, so it’s healthy. From the prettiest food blog, The Yellow House.

We love this cocktail for a winter wedding. Or for brunch tomorrow.

This is so over the top, we love it. Check out this Alice in Wonderland Wedding on Green Wedding Shoes. The ceiling of the cathedral, the bride’s bustle, and the colors at the end are bananas!

Check out this lovely post on Lovely Bride, full of flower girl dress and hair inspiration

We Love: Wedding Makeup & Mixology

“I don’t know what luxury is anymore. A good peach is luxury.”

That’s J Crew CEO Mickey Drexler speaking at WWD’s CEO Summit last week. We took this quote to heart because we totally agree: luxury is incredibly subjective.

What is luxury? Kind of a great dinner party topic, right? Some of us crave the luxury of more time above all. Others work hard to attain luxurious things.

Is beauty a luxury? If so, then that’s the one luxury we don’t want to live without. Refined, simple beauty from expected and unexpected sources is our joy.

If you have the luxury of a little free time this weekend, enjoy this week’s fun links from around the web.

Try this next time you see some gorgeous reflections. Jessica Backhaus’s vibrant photographs of Venetian canals.

Bridal beauty! Perfect bridal makeup for a fresh, natural look.

Simple, elegant, a little beachy. We love this minimalist wedding cake.

For the home mixologist, these interesting  additions take your cocktails to the next level.

Need a winter pick-me-up? Colorful watches by Marc Jacobs. They’re like vitamin C in watch form.

Thinking ahead? Here’s a local Valentine’s Day present for the foodies! Made in Brooklyn by the Sweet Fine Day family.
