Etsy lace

"Etsy Finds" featured various handmade lace items yesterday, including this lovely Mini Helena dress by Threadbare. I love this delicate but not too cutesy dress. Beautiful and elegant. If you love Etsy like I do, definitely sign up for their daily "Etsy Finds" newsletter.

Below is another lace Etsy item, a vintage birdcage veil from topsyturvydesign. I love that old school glamour! Since I have weddings on my mind after just being in Liezl's wedding, wouldn't this be great for a bride?? Untraditional and yet so classic. Mostly I think of the Brits as wearing such things to weddings -- as a guest -- but it would be fun to turn the tables.
