My Royal Wedding Attire...

Starting with the top,

& remember for this exercise in fantasy,

money is NO object...

I've finally chosen this hat

to go with the Valentino outfit

which I only just discovered today, Tuesday...

I mean, can you believe it...the wedding is Friday morning

I'm leaving tomorrow and TODAY I found the outfit!!



The hat seems perfect to me, not severe brimmed, but fluttery,

which this ensemble requires, I think.

I would prefer the hem to be longer, but this is the only photo I

could find.  The actual outfit will be delivered to my hotel on Thursday,

with the longer hem. 

I love the soft pinky-beige color, but thought it was way too

boring to be monochromatic, which is usually my style.

So the hat set the tone for the rest of the accessories.

I really am liking the sharpness of the dark gray/black with the

rose beige...to me it gives the outfit a lot of style & punch.

Diego Dolcini Shoes @ Neiman-Marcus

$1330.00

with Swarovski crystal-embellished heels

in gold, black & silver...

not gaudy at all, just beautiful with a bit

of dash thrown in.

Love the flower-ruffle embellished toes too.

Matches the hat & ruffle down the front of the outfit.

look at the awesome heels

Judith Leiber Handbag

adds exactly the right element of grandeur & whimsy.

I mean, wouldn't it just be too obvious to have a

"normal" handbag?

Not at the Royal Wedding, please....

notice the silver, gold & black crystals,

exactly the same as on the heel of the shoe.
