Style Me Pretty New York Welcomes Our Advertisers + A GIVEAWAY!

Oh SMP New York, do we have a lineup of lovelies to introduce to you today. Seriously, we are sort of obsessed with them. And while I could easily blabber on about how much we adore them (I do have a tendency to go on a bit), I'll leave it to you to really get to know them because once you do, it's pretty safe to say you'll love them too. So without further ado, I introduce Victoria KyriaKides, The Cotton Bride and MyWeddingWay.

Want to feel like you are walking down a runway in the prettiest of couture? Well of course you do, that's why you have to immediately take your pretty little self to Victoria KyriaKides's site. It's like eye candy of the fashion variety, which is just delicious in every sense of the word.



About Victoria KyriaKides...Victoria KyriaKides presents her bridal collection to the New York brides-to-be, after making her mark in the European market. She just launched her atelier in New York and is inviting brides to try on some amazing wedding dresses as shown on international catwalks while gaining a warm welcome by the press and media around the world.  Victoria’s collection is unfolded in two different directions, both characterized by a minimal style. The first is inspired by the an ancient civilization, re-interpreting the comfortable laid-back feeling of an area that marked modern aesthetics, while the second has more vintage-esque elements with the use of stunning, flowy fabrics that are perfect for a destination wedding.

Victoria is actively working in London and now New York, as well as her home city in Athens, Greece, where all dresses are made by experienced couture dress makers who pay attention to detail, away from mass-production procedures. The use of luxury materials handpicked from the finest lace and fabric houses in Paris by the designer is immediately evident to anyone viewing the collection from up close! Victoria herself is going to be in New York during April 2013, where she will see future brides who would like to meet with a true couture designer and receive her personal attention to making their dream wedding gown, made to their measurements and special needs. Part of her collection is also available to New York brides at Kleinfeld, and Victoria has recently announced her collaboration with London’s "Les Trois Soeurs" boutique in Canary Wharf.

If there is one thing we are completely, utterly, head over heels obsessed with, it's a gorgeous gown. And gowns like the VCD collection from The Cotton Bride? They are beyond our wildest dreams. Perfectly stylish, airy, heavenly and every other adjective for brides looking for a more relaxed gown - The Cotton Bride should be your next stop in styling.

About The Cotton Bride... Be it in a vineyard or on a farm, in the mountains or by the sea, the VCD collection of stylish, airy, cool and lightweight bridal gowns was specially created for the bride planning a wedding in a relaxed, nature-inspired setting.

Exquisite, subtle and sophisticated, VCD dresses are made to harmoniously blend in with the natural environments they are designed for. Gowns are virtually free of sparkle, and each classic silhouette is constructed under the highest standards of couture workmanship of designer Chris Kole, using only 100% natural silk, cotton and linen fabrics.

The VCD Bridal collection was inspired by the success of The Cotton Bride, Chris’s couture collection of custom, hand-sewn bridal gowns. Now in its fifth year, The Cotton Bride continues to stand alone as a beacon of innovative design and creativity. To learn more about The Cotton Bride, please visit our website or visit our page on Facebook.

The VCD collection is currently being sold exclusively through our New York showroom and will be available in select stores nationwide beginning September 2013.

Last but not least, MyWeddingWay. Two brothers with loads of talent snapping up pictures with loads of wow factor. And not only do they do that, they also shoot wedding films that will knock your socks off. The one below? They did the same day it was shot. True story. Images and video that speak for themselves, which we'll let them do right now...

And be sure to watch this amazing same-day edit that was shot, edited and shown to guests at the wedding's reception!



About MyWeddingWay...MyWeddingWay Studio is a family business. We are brothers, and wedding photography and cinematography are our major concentrations. We specialize in all the features and nuances of this complex and very inspiring form of art. Wedding cinematography and photography is very challenging, even for a professional videographer or photographer. It requires a number of skills to be combined together, such as directing, creating and finding interesting angles in order to tell a unique story for every couple. We provide regular, documentary-style photographs for our clients as well.
