Shop Friend: Addiction Salon

I love all of my chic, modern bridal clients and lately I've been hearing about their quandaries for adding some drama to their more modern, simple sheath and column style gowns. One client is wearing this beautiful Junko Yoshioda gown with a dramatic back. Her requirements are: no veil, no gloves, no jewelry (except for her grandmother's vintage teardrop earrings) and the teensy-tiniest of bouquets.

I came across this stunning updo created by Ilona over at Addiction Salon. A work of art like this needs only the simplest of earrings and gown and will cause some jaw dropping when your guests see you walk down the aisle.
