The Cover Up
Looking for something to wrap around your shoulders (that doesn’t look like it belonged to your grandmother!)? Whether it’s a shawl, bolero or cape, covering up isn’t just to keep you warm during the cooler months.
Captivating Capes
Add a healthy dollop of drama to your outfit by adorning yourself with a floor length cape.

The Capelet
Do you like the idea of the cape, but it’s just too melodramatic for your taste? Choose the little sister version: the capelet.

The Heel Deal
If you’re looking for a small heel to give you a little bit of height, without killing your feet, choose kitten heels. I’m not sure why they’re named after a small furry pet, but just like their namesake, they’re really cute and all your friends will ooh and aah.

Fingers and Toes
Your new ring doesn’t have to be the only one on your finger – find something for the other hand that will show off your unique sense of fun and style.
Getting married on the beach is the perfect opportunity to do what most brides dream of doing after hours in their shoes – going barefoot. Being shoe-less certainly doesn’t stop you from dressing up your perfectly manicured feet.
