wide leg appeal

January 18th, 2013 | Posted by Hello Love in Uncategorized - (Comments Off)

There are so many wonderful post engagement events that a couple has to attend. I dare those to be different and opt for a fabulous pair of wide leg trousers. They’re unexpected and exude confidence.

Mod Pop | Styled Shoot from Matt McNeill on Vimeo.

 

“It’s not often that I have the opportunity to go crazy with a look: Blemished grain, washed out contrast, gritty locations, flawed colors… While the things happening in front of the camera could have been interpreted in any way, I was more focused on peculiarity than the actual beauty of it. Add some awkward camera angles and Alicia Rico and you’ll have modern pop! The music choice is a Les Gams (French) cover of a non-hit single by The Exciters, He’s Got the Power–– A Le Truc!”

lord of the ring

April 27th, 2012 | Posted by Hello Love in Style | Uncategorized - (1 Comments)

When I decided to propose to my girlfriend I knew the ring would have to be something special and unique. I researched for months until I ran across a little antique jewelry shop called Erie Basin in Red Hook Brooklyn. I was immersed in this tiny world of antique rings and wondered which one would win me a bride! Erie Basin’s website and blog are beautiful but the shop, and the relics in it, transport one to another time and place!  – Adam Rico

A masse of one type of bloom: classic, modern, vintage. Depending on the flower you choose to carry down the aisle, your look can be as varied as the seasons. Above, blush football mums are girly and textural.


Antique yellow garden roses are clean and classic. Fragrant lilac reads loose and vintage.


Bold coral charm peony are always a favorite. Romantic and lush.


Soft creamy ranunculus appear timeless. White winter berry is full of texture and great alternative to the traditional big bloom.


Palest of Pink dahlia are sculptural and modern.


Cascading calla lilies are both architectural and romantic in this bouquet. White anemones with their dark black center are graphic and dramatic…an eye catcher.
