Hot Red 'Do + Birdcage Veil + Feathers

I just saw this wedding on Tales of a Female Husband. Check out the hot red 'do and be-feathered veil on this bride. I wish that I could pull that hair style off, but I hate the way my hair lies in pix when I wear heavy bangs with a ponytail. She looks awesome. And I love how she wears the veil/headpiece throughout the evening. There's no way for me to do that with mine. I am jealous.

I love her wife's tux and white shoes. It looks like a fun wedding.

Unveiled Disappointment

My veil arrived yesterday. I tore the box open immediately and ran through the office wearing it. One of my coworkers teared up and called me "stunning." I am home alone today so I had some time to try it on. And I think that it might look really dumb. Granted, I hadn't showered yet and was wearing one of Andy's t-shirts, which may have dulled the effect, but I really think that it just didn't look right. I tried it with the feathers and without the feathers. I tried wearing it to the front, I tried wearing it to the side, I tried it wearing it on the back, and it just looked dumb. I'll have to take it to my next appointment with my hairstlylist and see what he thinks. If he doesn't like it, I'll just bag it and toss a brooch or a shitty flower in my hair and call it a day. I'm really not the veil type, but I'm still a little disappointed. I hate that I love and am drawn to advant garde styles, but lack the inate sensibilites to pull them off. Who knows? Maybe it will look better with fancy hair and makeup.

Did you guys see these veils in Ready2Spark's post the other day? They're super cute and affordable.
