Elope In Elegance {Style} File

Eloping: A Modern Wedding sounds like a fabulous book...hmmmm, ideas, ideas, lol. My mind is always on green for go. I love creative wedding portraits that display the couple all alone indulging in each other as if no one else was around. I imagine the thought of getting married with all the stylish elements of a full production wedding just without all the people, high budget of food, wasted cake and over priced invites.
Imagine You still dazzling in a stunning gown, him looking stunning all dressed up from head to toe, your best friend, his best man, your mom, his mom, dads, children, your favorite cousin and his favorite aunt and uncle, a beautiful dinner setting, soft music, romantic decor, intimate, inviting and blissful. You hire a photographer to capture the moments, a stylist to ensure every detail, catering from your favorite restaurant, cake, champagne and the words "I Do" in style, intimate and memorable. My favorite part...all under $2500 or less.

I love intimate weddings which could be from the two of you and an officiant, to the two of you and 30 of your closest friends and family, from beaches to the backyard or inside of a barn. Be inspired, be free..., eat, dance and be married.

Love...Nina Fleurina

Bridal {Bloom} Must Have Hair

I'm obsessed with bridal hair, up do's, chignon, waterfall, buns up, buns down, braids, loose curls, bangs, no bangs, you name it and I love it...well some of them! You have to be real careful when choosing wedding day hair, do a run through, don't wait til the day-of to experiment, do stick with your personal style, don't do something totally dramatic, do have fun, don't underestimate the importance of how your hair should look, do stay fresh, do't choose a style that is dated uh..spirals are so 90's sorry ladies, do keep it age appropriate and youthful. Let your hair be an extension of your personal style. Happy Hair Day!!!

Love...Nina Fleurina

A {Sweet} Affair: Sweet Style

Several years ago I was introduced to this lovely confection by my friend Judy Humphrey of  Paris Atelier, and I've been in love every since. She's had the pleasure of enjoying them in Paris and I had them at a cute little tea shop in Santa Ana CA, either way I love them and I appreciate her for the very sweet introduction...lol!
The best part is the various ways people have incorporated this sweet little treat into the biggest days of their lives, get engaged, get married and have a baby all with the celebration of this sweet confection. Above I have posted an array of ideas suitable for any occasion. Enjoy the inspiration...

Spring {StyleFile} Wedding Edition

Now that NYFW{New York Fashion Week} is finally over...I'm sorry but I get overwhelmed salivating over beautifully designed clothing that I may never afford.  I can now narrow down to the styles and colors I love, incorporate them into wedding styling and beginning to plan my favorite time of the year!!! Hello Spring. This is the time where I'm planning tea parties, bridal showers and creating a line-up of fabulous brides to share in the biggest day of their lives. Let's Get Hitched!!!!

Above I have quickly created a visual list of Nina Fleurina's Favorite Spring things, colors and schemes. I don't know about Emerald but, Coral, Tangerine and Peach are my must-have Pantone color choices of the 2013 Spring/Summer Trends. Don't forget, incorporating these colors into you home decor and independent style. Also look for thrifty finds to mix and match with a modern design. It makes it, intimate, deliberate and personal.

I love everything stylish and pretty...come on...you know me!!! LOL!

XOXO...Nina
