Hayley Paige...I Love That Name

"I like being a woman, even in a man's world.  After all, men can't wear dresses, and we can wear the pants." - Whitney Houston

Hayley Paige, a former designer for Melissa Sweet and Blush, launched her namesake line under JLM  Couture.  Her new line was first showcased at NYC’s Market with her Spring 2012 collection and it has been getting a lot of young girls’ attention.  Hayley Paige has just released her Fall 2012 designs and the romantic and charming dresses are stunning and flawless, not to mention their price point is very reasonable.  

Here are some of my favourites from her Spring and Fall 2012 collections:

This ombre petal skirt with chapel train is beyond words! - Babs
The perfect reception dress with the ombre pleated peplum -  Kiki
the Hattie - a romantic gown with beautiful crystal detail on the bodice and straps
Tuula - for the boho chic bride with the crystal embellished dropped-waist skirt 
A dreamy Grecian style gown with crisscross tulle detailing on the back -  Nina

Yours truly,

Find Your SoleMate

Whether it's an outdoor ceremony overlooking the sea, a lovely lit tent reception, or just a good ol' fashioned garden party, there is always one major wardrobe issue that plagues us; high heels. They spike right through the grass and lend absolutely no support in the sand, but since fancy footwear plays a pivotal role in the makings of a perfect outfit, we either opt to suffer or hope to find a wedge  dressy enough to suit the occasion.

So naturally, when I stumbled upon The SoleMates, I instantly recognized the genius of the invention. Co-founders Becca Brown and Monica Ferguson brainstormed this brilliant idea in college and created SoleMates High Heeler®; a discreet and easy to use contraption that fits snugly on most stiletto and kitten heels to increase the surface area of the base and eliminate sinking into the ground!

Added bonus for all us shorties - they add about another inch in height :)
