A {Valentine's Day} Inspired Photoshoot
A couple nights ago, I had a spontaneous idea to create a mini photoshoot inspired by Valentine's Day! (You can read a little bit more about the day of the shoot right here.) Valentine's Day is one of those holidays that you either love or hate. I just so happen love it, not only because my husband is super sweet but also because the Valentine decor is always so pretty and soo cute! It's hard to go by all of the red, pink, candy, sparkles and hearts in the stores and not want to decorate the whole house and throw a super girly party. Please tell me I'm not alone on that one! lol For this mini inspired photoshoot, I used a colorful palette of aqua, pink, white and gold with hints of sparkle. I stayed up the night before to put all the little details together such as the little "favors" of adorable heart pins made of felt and the lacy scalloped garland which was made using paper doilies from the dollar store. These are just some ideas that are easy to do and don't cost a whole lot.
There are a few items featured that will be in the shop soon, (if they aren't already) so head on over to Love Sparkle Pretty and see what's new!
Get the sparkling gold heart cake topper right here.
This hairpiece is a part of the "Tea Party Collection" which will be in the shop soon! A sneak peek coming to the blog tomorrow. :)
What are your plans for this Valentine's Day?
{Have a beautiful week!}
Opinions on new framed glasses please? :)
I need your help guys! I am in need of a new prescription pair of glasses but I'm not sure which pair would look the best on me. I have worn glasses for about 10 years now and getting a new pair of glasses always seems like such a change. Not only am I able to see the world around me in a whole new light ("I can see clearly now the rain is gone...I can see all the obstacles in my way...") but I also seem to look a little differently when I set those new frames on my nose! :)
So, here's the challenge, I am looking at the different pairs of eyeglasses from GlassesUSA.com to see which look the best on me. They make it easy to do with their virtual mirror feature! You can "try on" a pair of glasses by viewing them on a photo of yourself! Cool right?
Here are a few glasses frames that I love! Which eye glasses do you think look the best?
These are the Vintage pair:
These are the Reece Jakob pair: `
These are the Tiffany pair:
Which of the 3 frames do you like best? :)

{Sneak Peek} A SWEET Valentine Inspired Photoshoot
Two nights ago, I came up with a little idea for a mini inspiration photoshoot and stayed up until about 1 in the morning to complete some details for it. If you don't know already, I will be launching a new website with wedding/event planning services as well as event decor so I needed some new photos for the shop and website. Yesterday, I called up my grandma who lives down the street and asked her if I could borrow her garden (she has a beautiful garden throughout her whole yard that she completely transformed herself) and of course she said yes under the condition that I bring her favorite great grandson. :) So, I loaded up my jeep with a bunch of fun props and my son in tow.
Once everything was set up and I found a location, I pulled out my camera phone...yes, my camera phone (I have been wanting to get an actual camera but still haven't)! My trust-y little camera named "Droid" snapped away and here's a sneak peek of what's to come to the blog soon!
Here was the sneak peek I gave on Instagram. :)
I should have the post ready by tomorrow so check back soon! :)
FLASH SALE! Headbands, scarves, a necklace and a ring!!

Also, a whole new line of {PRETTIES for your events} has just arrived starting with these adorable heart shaped cupcake/cake toppers!
Next, these items will be showing up very soon along with many others! :)
What are your favorite "go-to" pieces when you throw parties and events?
Real Wedding-featuring Feathered Boutonnieres from {Love Sparkle Pretty}
I love when people give me their ideas to bring to life because I get to create something that I may not have made otherwise. A while back, Lin (a bride-to-be at the time) contacted me about creating something new for her wedding day. Together, we created completely customized boutonnieres for her groom and groomsmen using a pretty color combo of feathers and crystal brooches. The crystal brooches were actually sent to me via snail mail from Lin which she already had and wanted me to incorporate them into the boutonnieres. This new design plan of her boutonnieres came out oh so {pretty} and are still one of my favorite pieces yet! I shared the boutonnieres in this post a while back when I finished them and Lin just recently sent me a few photos of her wedding day. It looked like so much fun and she made such a beautiful bride!
Here is what she had to say about Love Sparkle Pretty.
"I am very particular in what I like and Kayla nailed the design swiftly after I showed her my wedding color palette. The boutonnieres turned out exactly how I have envisioned and the execution is exquisite. It is obvious she is passionate at what she does and her work will definitely make my big day a little more beautiful with no doubt." -Lin
These are some of the photos taken by Bill McDad on Roel & Lin's wedding day.
{enjoy}
See lots more of their gorgeous wedding here.
Want one or more of these STUNNING boutonnieres? They are now available in my shop right here!
