GROOM CHIC PART 2

Selix

Last week we explored the history of men's formal wear along with how easy it is for them to shop online. Don't you envy them? I mean, you don't find guys making the rounds of Selix and Gingiss with an entourage of groomsmen all comparing colors, shapes and textures. Nor do they blog much about finding their dream suit and how many different styles they had to try on before they found, The One. Read and see more images . . . . .

WEDDING IN BLUE

Wedding in blue

The title--Wedding in Blue--reminds me just how many monochromatics blue actually has. If your bridesmaids are going for blue, consider letting them dress them in various necklines, waistlines, etc., complimentary to each particular to each individual body type. And if you still don't like the-everybody-in-midnight-blue thing, try graduated shades of blue instead. Also think about accents. Blue can be worn as florals, sashes and belts, and for the guys pocket silks and ties.
