Razzle dazzle and bead and feather ’em….
2012 is bringing back the 1930s! One of the hottest trends for this year’s weddings will be the styles we saw back then (ok, not us, but some people). This should make my Jersey brides happy as feathers were a huge staple back then and they are insanely popular right now. But we’re not talking …
