Think coral silk pumps with crystal embellishments, royal blue pumps with sparkling butterflies, and hot pink ballet flats made from glittering fabric.

The most chic ones are embellished with lots of sparkle and really make a statement. Petite brides, your day to feel tall has come!
And don't forget about your evening bag. Some of the most standout accessories displayed at the recent bridal market were the vibrant jeweled clutches made by Judith Leiber. These little beauties are simple small hard frame clutches completely covered with dazzling Swarovski crystals. The bags come in every color you can imagine, from Kelly green to hot pink to sunshine yellow. Here's a fun idea: have your attendants carry fabulous crystal clutches down the aisle instead of bouquets. They will definitely enjoy their wedding souvenirs!
Ever since the outrageous British hats spotted at Princess Kate and Prince William's royal wedding, American ladies have become fascinated by...fascinators. A whimsical wisp of feathers perched on top of the head is a fun trend that is showing up even on bridesmaids.

If you are the DIY sort of bride, you can make one-of-a-kind fascinators for all of your bridesmaids in your favorite colored feathers. White feathers combined with organza roses are fabulous for the bride, either on their own or as part of a birdcage veil.
Vintage inspired styles will still be going strong for 2012 weddings. When it comes to accessories, that translates to vintage inspired jewelry like chandelier earrings, cz Art Deco style bracelets, and romantic Edwardian style pendants. They are the perfect accessories for the stunning beaded chiffon wedding gowns that were all over the runway at Jenny Packham's Fall 2012 bridal collection. Complete your look with a big bridal beauty trend: red lipstick.
