Monique Lhuillier.  There are few words that go together as beautifully as Monique Lhuillier.  And honestly, there are few things as elegantly stunning as her new collection of ready-to-wear pieces.

And best of all, it's her first.  Yes, her first ever RTW campaign has just rolled out, starring the gorgeous Codie Young, and every piece in the collection is just breathtaking.

A perfect statement for the soon coming Spring season, the new 2014 collection features beautiful and bold hues of pink, orange, red, and luscious creams.  You'll see textures of lace, sheer chiffon, and stunning satins making this collection on par with the perfection you already expect from her bridal collections.

What do you think of the new campaign?  Drooling yet?

Monique Lhuillier's Bridal Collection

"From City Hall to the altar, whether there are hundreds of guests or just two..."

That was the idea and inspiration, straight from designer Monique Lhuillier's lips, about her new bridal collection, which showed for spring 2014.  

Chalk full of simple, clean lines, elegant shapes, and beautifully simple details on softly flowing fabrics, the collection was meant to cater to the needs of every type of bride.  The collection featured just about every type of cut a girl could want, from strapless, to sleeveless, to one shoulder ivory, and even minis.  

Yet she stayed true to form, and her ball gowns, featuring gentle lace and tulle accents, were major wow-factor pieces.  

So what do you think of the dreamy collection?

Looks We Love! Bridal Fashion Week

Wedding season is about to be in full bloom, and while brides and bridesmaids everywhere are running amok to put the finishing details on their weddings, the fashion world is already looking ahead to Spring 2013 wedding gowns!  Talk about planning ahead!

Monique Lhuillier just showed 31 gowns and cocktail dresses for her Spring 2013 bridal collection during bridal fashion week, and we were drooling!  With names like Luxe and Champagne, each look oozed elegance and class, ranging in details from tulle ball gowns to lace columns.  Take a look at some of the dresses we loved most. 

Named "Forever" this has to be one of my top favs for it's gorgeous tulle trumpet silhouette and tiny hint of pale pink tones to create a unique hue.

"Escape" - a dress that reminds me of romance and the victorian era, with a strapless lace design and sheer tulle cape for added elegance.  

"Illusion" - this dress is so stunning!  Its a silk white and gold embroidered gown with gold flecking on the sheer neckline, and flirty feminine bow on the hip.

Will these have you saying “I Do” to a dress?
