here comes the bride(s headpiece)

Tis the season.

these are some wedding head pieces courtesy of Refinery 29.  I picked a few of my favorites! check out the whole slideshow here. 

 

CandyBand Talia Headwrap, $128, available at CandyBand.  

I absolutely adore this take on the classic birdcage veil!  It frames her face in such a beautiful way and she still has the classic veil look.  It feels so effortless. This would be great with any style especially if you don't want to cover up fun textures like braids!

Tasha Beautiful Crystal Headpiece, $78, available at Nordstrom.

hippie chic! Love this idea of a crystal headband pulled across your forehead. Don't be fooled, this would also look GREAT with a Grecian (where the style originated) or early 20th century themes.  This is also a great way for a bride with a short crop to amp it up.

 Johanna Johnson Susannah Headpiece, $641.82, available at Johanna Johnson. 

I wish I were getting married again just so i could wear this! In the early 20th century, wide headbands known as headache bands were very popular. Their name, of course, comes from the belief that the tight pressure they provided around the forehead could relieve or prevent headaches.  So besides helping to relieve the possible stress on the day of the wedding, this headband is simply STUNNING.  do it.  

ah wedding season brings joy to my heart.  I hope you find some inspiration, even if its not your wedding, most of these styles will work for multiple occasions.

A wonderful quote that has been working its way through me all week.  I'm Currently going through The Artist Way: A Spiritual Path to Creativity by Julia Cameron, and it is great.  One week in and its already challenging how i see myself as an artist and just as a person in general.

I'm really excited about this blog.  I guess my goal is to have a place to post what i think people should know and a place to talk about my process as a freelance artist.  

i want to be honest.  I want to be open.  I want to show my process.
