Blush's Favourite People: Sandra Morales of Olivia Accessories!
As every bride knows, no gown is complete without the perfect accessories. And our newest love is anything and everything created by Sandra Morales for her "Olivia" line!
Founded in 2011, the Olivia line is a nostalgic collection of accessories that draws inspiration from the relaxed yet glamorous fashion of the 1920's. A rich collection of belts and headpieces, each piece is carefully constructed in the tradition of the line's namesake- Sandra's grandmother, a renowned dressmaker in her day. Like her grandmother, Sandra has a sharp eye and affinity for detail: each piece is handmade in Canada and intricately combines fabrics and materials from around the globe. With an easy elegance, Sandra has captured the timeless beauty of the 1920s and combined it with accessory trends of today. Each piece provides the unique and personal balance that brides are looking for in their bridal accessories. And with clients around the world selecting her pieces for their big day, there's no doubt that the Olivia collection is the perfect blend of "something old and something new!"

Friday Favourites: Subtle Sophistication
L260 by Romona Keveza
April showers bring May flowers. With the recent transition into beautiful sunny weather, we’re reminded of just how lovely spring in Vancouver really is. Between the flowers and the sunshine, we’ve been thinking a lot about garden weddings. Perfect for a garden setting is Blush’s owner, Lorna’s, favourite gown L260 by Romona Keveza. This silk chiffon gown features a one-shoulder illusion neckline and a draped waist which flows into a softly fluted skirt. Lorna loves the subtly of this gown. With gentle details like the easy flow of the fabric, the softly gathered waist and the delicate illusion neckline, nothing about this gown is overdone. The result is a vision of sophisticated and refined simplicity. Of course for those wanting a little more drama, there are options: covered buttons can be added to the back and/or there are detachable chiffon tails that drape from the shoulder. Whether worn simple or slightly more dramatic, L260 offers bride a soft and romantic look that is also clean and elegant- perfect for a garden wedding!
Price: approximately $3300
