Trend We Love: Belts

wedding belts

Up the style quotient on your wedding gown with the simple addition of a sash. A crisp sash tied in a bow can take a dress from simple to fabulous. If you aren't a bow girl but love a little bling, try adding a brooch to your sash for sophisticated sparkle. Black is a fashion-forward choice, creating high contrast and modern panache, but a nude, champagne, or blush sash would look extremely elegant and romantic. Take a look at ninabridal.com, abellie.com, or davidsbridal.com for some great sash options. 

Tip: If you are short-waisted, choose a thinner sash. Also, it might be best to buy the sash at the same store you buy the dress to ensure the colors match and the style enhances the dress.
