Update from New York Bridal Fashion Week!

So now that I've finally had time gather my thoughts about all we have seen for the past two days, I thought it was more than time to update the blog!

First up yesterday was Augusta Jones who was, as usual, beyond fabulous. All the things we love about Augusta Jones, brought to a new level! Gorgeous lace, expertly placed ruching, clever details and beautiful fit.

While we were there, TheKnot.com came by to shoot a video




The ever-amazing Lea-Ann Belter did not disappoint us! This season's gowns are simple, chic, and ready to accessorize. Her gorgeous, light, silk dupioni gowns are embellished with sweet feminine details and our favorite laces.

Also, we're bringing in Filippa Scott accessories that you are sure to love. Gorgeous hair pieces and veils that are to die for! "Mr. Bustle" (my husband and Bustle co-owner) tagged along for the trip, and when he saw these hand-beaded rhinestone encrusted veils, even he did a double-take! Can't wait for them to get into the store. Clearly, TheKnot.com has the same taste as we do, because they ended up here to do a video as well!

Next, on to Grace shoes!

The long-loved classic Grace collection will now be at Bustle! Shoes should arrive within the next month or two. Love 'em!

Also, I'm not really sure where we're going to display all the jewelry we found while we were here! Stop in after Tuesday to see all the gorgeous sparklies I found! It's been a great weekend in NYC!

Gown advice from the best in the business

I recently ran across a collection of quotes from the best couture bridal designers - including some great advice for selecting your perfect gown.

These designers know a thing or two about dressing brides for their big day, so I love the tips they gave!

Here's what I read:

"Don't be too hard on yourself when trying in wedding gowns. Focus on what you love and play up those parts."
- Reem Acra

"I only have one fashion rule: When in doubt, don't."
- Oscar de la Renta

"Start by experimenting with different silhouettes. Once you find the right cut, you can begin thinking about details."
- Amsale Aberra
