Happy Monday everyone! I hope you had an amazing weekend.
I want to introduce you to Maison Bellish. I know I showed you some of his 1920’s inspired dresses but I felt like it just wasn’t enough. All of his designs are GORGEOUS. So this time I wanted to talk about his dresses that had sleeves! How can you not love these dresses. I would wear each one of them if I could…hehe.I know you’ll feel the same way once you see them for yourself too. Anyways here are just a few of my picks from his collection that have sleeves like I said. I LOVE the vintage look of his gowns.
So if you looking for a vintage gown that isn’t a ball gown for your day these might just be a perfect fit. Till next time which will be very soon!
Amazing lace on the bodice and on the back of this gown, along with long sleeves and collar are a beautiful combination. It’s vintage mixed with elegance. (Top)

Last Week I introduced you to Johanna Johnson and her 20’s inspired gowns. This week I wanted to share with you some of her gowns that have sleeves (and you thought I forgot didn’t you ? ). Her bridal gowns are absolutely stunning from the seaming, laces, fabrics and to the rhinestone, beading placement and details.
I honestly cannot get enough, and I’m sure you’ll feel the same way after seeing these.
Here is some inspirational looks I put together in keeping with the 1920’s theme. Just remember if your theme is the 20’s. Not everything has to resemble that era 100%. Your focal point is always the the wedding dress so things should always enhance that not take away from it.
Have fun looking at these three looks.
1st Look: I decided to go with these cute t-strap shoes which were a huge trend in the 20’s. The dress does not scream 20’s but it is somewhat lose in the bust and waist which is very much a 20’s style. Art Deco inspired jewelery and purse help to enhance the era and look, along with a heavy lace edged veil that can be worn as a head cap veil.
2nd Look: This wedding dress gives off an Art Deco vibe with it’s interesting seaming/lines which is so often seen in Art Deco of the 20’s. A fun lambs fur ( resembling Ostrich feathers I think) cover-up help to give a flapper vibe (Also great for cold weather). The shoes match the cover-up. (Even though they are not 100% 20’s inspired they tie in nicely because they go well with the feather trend of those times. And again work nicely with the cover-up). The necklace is a longer chained necklace with interesting shapes again like art deco which then help to pull off the beaded purse. Then to finish off the look I included a sparkly head band which is just enough.
3rd Look: This dress is fitted very lose (only giving us maybe a slight hint of curves but not much). I wanted to make the focal point on this dress about the dress and the body jewelery that create Art-Deco lines. The veil is very simple as not to distract from the focal point with just a slight hint of lace. The same simplicity is also in the earrings not to small but not to big just enough. T-strap shoes again. And lastly to add just a little bit of fun,texture and movement to breakup the simplicity of this combination. I choose a flowy feather purse.
Well I better run I hope you enjoyed my looks.
