The Ballerina Inspired Bride


Ballet has symbolized romance and grace for years.  Thanks to the popularity of great ballets like "Swan Lake" and Natalie Portman's star showing in "The Black Swan" ballet has been thrust into the spotlight.  We love the idea of copying that gorgeous, chic style for weddings.  After all, what better day to be graceful and romantic?  Here are some of our favorite ballet inspired wedding accessories.  Adorn your gown and channel your inner swan with this beautiful Sloane Bracelet, $279, by Sara Gabriel.  Hand crafted of soft feathers and accented with a cluster of crystals, Sloane can be worn as a bracelet or a headpiece.  Available in Diamond White, Pale Ivory, or Black.


Ballet Dancers can't wear big earrings while dancing, so petite pearl and crystal studs are the perfect compromise.  From left to right Hepburn Pearl Post Earring $68, Cheri Studs $62, and Pearl Studs $36.


Any perfect ballerina bride needs chic crystal encrusted ballet flats of course.  Renee by Benjamin Adams, $195.


The creamy ribbons on this delicate bandeau echo the feeling of the ribbons on pointe shoes.  Jessamine Bandeau, $199.  Can also be worn as a sash.  See some other Ribbon Headpieces here.


Channel your inner Swan Lake with this gorgeous hand curled feather hair comb; looks perfect worn as a fascinator on the top of your head, or wrapped around a low chignon.  Mizzi Curly Feather Hair Comb, $149.  Designed by Lori London.



Add some extra sparkle to your sophisticated ballerina bun with these Petite Crystal Stud Hairpins, $36 for a set of six.  Also available in a larger Grande size.

Love the look?  Has the Black Swan or any other movie influenced your bridal look?
