  One of the best hairstyles of the past couple years is Blake Lively's hair for Gossip Girl on the episode featuring the white party. Her hair was loosely tossed back into a large bun of curls which were framed with braids. The hair was styled after looks reminiscent of the Bohemian and Grecian inspired hairstyles. The romantic hairstyle was also accented with two stone jeweled headbands, one worn along side the braid framing the bun and another close to her forehead. There are a number of pave set ribbon headpieces that you can purchase instead of a traditional tiara that would nicely complement this particular look. Many of these jeweled headbands are fashioned on the back of a ribbon, and simply tied into the hair. If the white ribbon is just too bold for your bridal look, consider just pinning in the pave set headband into the hair with bobbi pins and remove the ribbon. Another option is to make a small ribbon out of clear veil tulle instead of white ribbon which can also hold the jewels in place. (Read More.....)

 Grecian Roman styles have made a huge comeback, and have never really gone out of style. Alicia Keys looked stunning on her wedding day to producer Swizz Beatz in August on the island of Corsica dressed in a Grecian gown. The wedding was held few kilometers from Bonifacio just west of the beautiful country of Italy. The pregnant 29-year-old Grammy Award-winning singer wore an Grecian style wedding dress designed by Vera Wang. Wang was originally inspired by a style of dress worn by Egyptian princesses. The gown was made of an ivory silk georgette, asymmetrical in style. The draped gown was simply elegant with a little detail on the back shoulder. Other than her jewel-encrusted Christian Louboutin sandals, she focused her main jewelry in her hair rather than on her gown or around her neck. The overall look was not overdone, and remained simply elegant, but still she had a lot of bling which really gave her wedding appearance very regal look. Keys perfectly accented her graceful flowing gown with a historical looking Grecian jewel encrusted headband which was originally a one-of-a-kind necklace that was reworked by Jacob & Co. The custom fitted 60 carat diamond headpiece perfectly swagged across her forehead and pinned behind her over sized bun. Pictures from Alicia Keys Web (Read More.....)
