Wrap It Up Pretty + A Winner

This month has been a whirlwind to say the least.  We batted our eyelashes and poof, October is over. I guess time flies when you are having oodles and oodles of fun but the festivities aren't over just yet. We have a little celebrating to do in the form of wearing fabulous costumes and eating our weight's worth in candy. Sounds fab, right? And some of you brave souls may be getting hitched this weekend! So whether you are celebrating in a rockin costume or a gorgeous wedding gown, we hope you have a glorious good time. Before we leave you for the weekend, we wanted to share one last tidbit of Halloween Inspiration shot by Camilla Binks that is full out glamour...



Halloweed



and the rest of the shoot is absolutely TO DIE FOR. Check out the gallery for more Halloween inspiration.

We also wanted to let you know that we've recently launched our Eco Green Guide to showcase our favorite Little Black Book members who are making an effort to offer reduced offset or carbon neutral services, create green products, use organic, sustainable or green materials, repurpose, recycle, compost, donate percentages of profits to eco charities...you get the drift. So if you're in the market for an eco-conscious wedding vendor, make sure to carve out a few minutes to check out this very special guide. Oh and we're adding new vendors every day!



Enjoy these pretty posts and we look forward to seeing you on Monday!

And the winner of the Sarah Drake Inspiration to Invitation challenge is... Chiara!



Our favey fave Sarah Drake had this to say...



There were so many amazing boards- Style Me Pretty readers are the best! They made it very hard for us to choose a winner. But in the end, we ended up choosing the board that most inspired us. We could absolutely imagine this couple's style, and what they wanted their wedding to look and feel like. It has texture, pattern, and many elements to draw from- making it a feast of inspiration. Thanks to everyone who submitted - we could have picked ten winners!



Have a fun, candy filled weekend! xoxo
