Congratulations you’re engaged! Now comes the fun part…planning the perfect wedding. For a bride who likes to be in the spotlight, a sparkly wedding gown might be what first springs to mind, but why not shake things up a bit by letting your inner glam goddess shine through in other fabulous ways.
We’re talking shoes, accessories and makeup to make you twinkle from head to toe…
Sparkle With Every Step
Sure you could go with a classic white pump, but where is the fun in that? Instead opt for a pair of crystal embellished slippers that scream “Cinderella shall go to the ball”. Whether you choose shimmering gold, dazzling silver, or even a bold jewel tone, your shoes can be the statement piece of your bridal ensemble. Picture walking down the aisle in sparkly heels that catch the light and everyone’s attention.
Accesorise like a Pro
When it comes to accessories, think of them as powerful tools you can weaponise for a standout look. A stunning pair of earrings or a statement necklace can elevate even the simplest gown into something showstopping. Consider opting for pieces that incorporate crystals or sequins to illuminate the light, adding much-coveted sparkle factor.
Let’s not forget about your hair! A glittering hairpiece or a bejewelled headband can transform the bridal hairstyle from mediocre to marvellous in seconds. Whether you decide on a chic updo or cascading waves, a little sparkle woven though will make you shine like the queen you are.
Makeup Magic
Not to forget the face – the canvas of your bridal beauty…
Think shimmering highlighters, glittery eyeshadows, and even a touch of sparkle on your lips. A radiant highlighter can give your cheekbones that “lift from within” glow, while a bit of glitter eyeshadow can make your eyes pop like never before.
And for those of you who love the catty drama, why not channel that fierce energy into a glamourous cat eye adorned with a hint of shimmer?
