A New Year's Eve Bride

It's New Year's Eve.... Let me say that again- IT'S NEW YEAR'S EVE! How the heck is it New Year's Eve already?! I could have sworn it was January 1st just the other day!

In honor of New Year's Eve, I've put together a sort of inspiration board. Every year there are thousands of New Year' Eve weddings and engagements. The idea of a New Year's Eve wedding excites me, because I believe to be a New Year's Eve bride you aren't your average, girl next-door type of bride. When I think of a New Year's Eve bride a spunky girl comes to mind, a girl who pushes the boundaries, who's non-traditional, who isn't afraid to turn heads.

So, in honor of the New Year's Eve bride I've imagined in my head.... Let me introduce you to her. I've decided to name her Evie (original, right?), and this is what I think she would wear to her surprise New Year's Eve wedding.

Here's the scene: Evie and her fiancé have invited all of their friends and family to what they think in a New Year's Eve engagement party, to celebrate the New Year and to celebrate their engagement. Little do they know that this is actually their wedding.


THE DRESS

Evie isn't your traditional white dress girl- cause these days, you don't have to wear a white dress on your wedding day. So Evie takes the modern idea and puts a New Year's party twist to it, and she gets this:



A gorgeous Ambre Babzone V Neck dress, which not only shows off her personality but makes the Times Square ball jealous. If she wanted to a dress that people will always remember, she has that checked off her list.


THE JEWELRY:

Evie doesn't want to go overboard with jewelry, because she's glittering enough already. So she adds these perfect posts from Antropologie to complete her look.




THE SHOES:

Next are the shoes; a girl's best friend and worst enemy. Evie isn't about to give up and wear simple flats for the night. She picks out an amazing pair of Jimmy Choo's to add the finishing touch of sparkle.




THE MAKEUP:

When it comes time for her makeup, she turns to Kim Kardashian for inspiration. She knows Kim is the queen of the smoky eye look, so she takes the look, adds a little bit of silver, and she gets this as a result: perfections.




THE HAIR:

For her hair, Evie looks to the celebrity who always has the perfect hair for any occasion: Lauren Conrad. She take's Lauren's wavy hair red carpet look to add a little simplicity to her outfit, because anything over the top would just be too much.





THE RING:

And last, but certainly not least... the ring. Evie's fiancé knows Evie is not a typical bride, which is why he picked out this Platinum Sapphire Round Bezel Halo Diamond Ring with Side Stones. Needless to say he did an amazing job.






And that's it! :) Imagine showing up to a wedding and seeing your friend come in dressing like this?! She would make jaws drop instantly!

I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year's Eve!
