Inspiration: New Year


By now the countdown is long over, the confetti has since been swept up, and we should all be caught up on our lost sleep. But still, there's something about New Year's Eve that gives a girl great reason to wear ample sequins, statement jewelery, and fancy dancing shoes without apology. It's an occasion for counting down the minutes until you kiss your sweetie, thinking of the past, and looking to the future. And, while you're at it, add some bubbly, a bit of revelry, and several good friends to that list. So really, it already has all the makings of a fabulous wedding. And so to kick off the series, this inspiration board draws on all things fun about the holiday that is a herald of new beginnings. The design is celebratory, thoroughly modern, and a little bit irreverent, in shades of midnight black, platinum, and gold.
