The black Coast Cecelia halterneck style dress is a great style that will suit any woman's shape or size.It skims the body rather than being figure hugging and has a lovely A-line style.There is a gorgeous bow detail at the back of the dress so an up hairstyle would go well to show it off. This style is very versatile as you can dress it up or down depending on the occasion.

Gals, we had a huge response to popping this piece back into store, even though it was reserved for one of our clients. We are offering it up on a first come first serve basis in our shop today as it needs a new home for Christmas and hasn't found the right size gal to sit on just yet. :)
Size = US size 6-8 ( UK size 10)
We had so many requests for this particular piece, so rather than going through everyones measurements we have decided to offer it up to whomever would like to purchase it, giving a suitable fit. :)
In Style...

The Coast Betsey dress is the ideal little black dress for any womans wardrobe. It's classic and simple yet it still has fashionable touches at the waist and shoulders.This style is also very flexible since you can dress it up or down depending on the occasion. Accessories, shoes and different jackets can change up the look of the Betsey dress.

Not the first shade you think of when getting married but I must admit its really after growing on me and I think it would really add something very quirky to a traditional wedding dress!
This ones for the brave and beautiful. ;)

Gals,We are so grateful to a dear online friend of ours TraceyPaul of InviteMeCreative who brought us a wee publicity scoop that we almost missed this weekend. Canadas Luxury Wedding Magazine, "WedLuxe" chose to feature our work in their editors picks on their official blog and we were very excited to see our wraps as the editors "haute picks" for bridal couture.
Thanks to WedLuxe magazine and thanks again to our online pals like TraceyPaul who bring us the scoops hot off the press so we don't miss anything exciting. xxx

Gals I happened upon these stunning photos from the "Confetti Magazine" shoot that we were involved in last year with Irish stylist Roxanne Parker. I shared the feature with you all from the magazine but it was purely just a camera over the magazine type of a job.
I saw these actual jpegs on Roxannes Facebook and they took my breath away. Its such a treat to see our pieces styled in such a romantic way and captured by renowned professional photographer Agata Stoinska.

Gals, One of our recent brides Rachel rocked the Marie Antoinette bolero with her gorgeous wedding outfit. I love the vibrant colors in Rachels special day, the feminine ruffles against her stunning artwork, that stunning floral bouquet and that dreamy blue sky. Rachel looks like a perfect bride on a perfect day!
We hope Rachel had a magical time and we are excited to see our work playing such a nice part in the bridal ensemble. ;)

Gals, we have been so looking forward to sharing this particular magazine feature, and as publishing goes, its important to only share the news after its been released to the public. We had an opportunity to work with one of Irelands top stylists Tanya Grimson and we were blown away by the results, very hauntingly beautiful and with a really mystical aesthetic, its been so incredible to be involved in such a high profile collaboration.We hope you gals like it too..

Hi Gals,
Its been a long time since we checked in with you all, a lot has been happening over the last wee while. The laptop took a sabatical for quite some time whilst my charger decided to give up the ghost so I have been without all my photographs for ages and finally have managed to get the technology back in action again. I was also away on my holidays for a week in London with my sister and we had an amazing trip so theres lots of catching up to do here in the studio.
One of the loveliest things to come home to is photographs from our brides of their wedding day and how our piece worked out with their ensemble. One such bride was Liz who actually bought her wedding dress around her teal bolero and chose something that would compliment it overall. I love the pop of rich teal color within Liz's look, its a really fresh approach to bridal and really adds a new dimension to the traditional color palette. Liz was such an awesome client to work with and we are so chuffed to have featured in her special day.
We wish Liz and her new Hubbie the best of all that Married life has to offer. xxxx

Gals,
During the year we were invited to showcase at a very high profile Wedding Event in London, we were absolutely chuffed with the invitation and we are taking a wee trip over tonight to visit the October show to scope out the set up and hopefully have a few tips and tricks for showcasing our own label in February at the next show!
Heres what the website says about the show, if your in the area it would be worth a trip!
The Designer Wedding Show UK

And it makes the complex task of planning your wedding much simpler.
Instead of spending weeks requesting company brochures, visiting designers' showrooms, trawling the internet and hitting the phone, you can spend one day in a relaxed and focused environment at The Designer Wedding Show finding everything you need.
Alongside an exceptional choice of bridal fashion you will also be able to choose the best of everything else from companies, including all those featured on this site, offering: exquisite stationery, beautiful millinery, stylish menswear and divine bridesmaids fashion; couture shoes, designer jewellery, stunning fashion for the mother of the bride, inspirational photography, scrumptious cakes, fabulous venues, smart gift lists and heavenly flowers.

So its roadtrip time again folks, Ger and I are hitting the Airport tonight for a quick flight and hoping to catch the show in the morning ( of course one has to slip in a trip to see Les Miserables in the West End too while we are there! It would be indecent not too! ;)
See you all again very soon, its a flying visit. xx
