We’re continuing our love of all things pink today by sharing some gorgeous jewels! Engagement rings and wedding bands have seen some major changes in trends the last few years. Rose gold, platinum, classic silver… today, anything goes. But what about the stone in the center? It used to be that colored diamonds and gemstones were only for celebrities and Elizabeth Taylor but lately, ladies everywhere have been requesting a pop of color for their left hand. We love the uniqueness of these rings and the fact that they come in (literally!) every color of the rainbow. Our selection today is certainly rosy… would you rock a pink ring? If not, what color would you consider wearing? Let us know in the comments!

Happy Friday, everyone! We are so thankful that it’s time for another weekend filled with weddings, and we just had to pass along this gorgeous color scheme that seems to match our mood so perfectly.

When it comes to pink, brides either love it or hate it. For some, it’s too girly and for others it’s the color they’ve been dreaming of since they were five years old. Today we’ve got a grown up version of this springy color that we think even anti-pink brides will appreciate: fuschia and taupe. By pairing the bright, rosy color with a neutral (like tan or brown), the outcome is sophisticated and classy… not Sweet Sixteen.

Let us know what you think in the comments section. Would you dress your wedding day in these colors?
