Jim Hjelm is one of my favorite wedding dress designers. Somehow, his dresses look so fantastic on everyone. I love all of the little details of the dresses he makes, from the rhinestones to the ruffles to the bow that he adds. Everything that he puts on the dress is there to make a girl look even more fantastic.
Below are 2 of my favorite ball gown dresses from this season. The first one has these gorgeous folded silk organza ruffles flowing down and little rhinestones that decorate the bustline.
The second one has an asymmetrical ruffle skirt and beautiful embroidery on the bust. The sweetheart neckline is really flattering while the beautiful sash in the middle helps to accentuate your waist.
Kimberly, who is getting married this October recently wrote in to ask me what wedding shoes she should pair with the first dress. Specifically, she was looking for white wedding shoes. So, I decided to post it here and give her some suggestions.
First, both of these dresses have big flowy ball gowns which probably means they will be a little bit heavier. One thing I suggested was to make sure any heel that she buys is sturdy since she will have to manage the gown. Next, my thought was to get something simple since the dress itself is already really detailed and elaborate. You don’t want your white wedding shoes getting in the way of your wedding dress. Instead, you want the shoes to compliment the dress. My thought would be that the shoes would not need many rhinestones or bows on it and should be simple and elegant. Finally, I asked our stylist Tina to look at the dress and come up with a few ideas. Her thought was to go with a shoe such as the Badgley Mischka Carlo with the gorgeous bow on the side. The bow doesn’t detract from the dress, but rather compliments the dress.
The other suggestion was rsvp Vicky shoes. These are simple, elegant, and also have a little bow. Finally, she suggested the Cole Haan Ceci Air Open Toe Pumps for extra comfort with the Nike air padding. These shoes are simple, yet they are still really pretty with the open toe and high heel. You can see all of these shoes on the white wedding shoe page of our store. If you have a dress that you can’t find shoes for, write to me at
