The Grey Suit

This years hottest color suit for grooms is grey.  Some may say it's trend may have something to do with the 'Fifty Shades of Grey' books and with the excitement of the movie coming out soon.  And we'd agree!  Here are some shades of grey we are loving this season.

Charcoal:
This Charcoal Windsor by Perry Ellis will have you looking incredibly dapper on your wedding day.  If you're looking for a darker shade then this is the perfect tux for you.  



Steel:
This Steel Grey Twilight by Jean Yves has a bit of shine and a lot of class!  We love this tux paired with Pantone's color of the year: Radiant Orchid.  It goes very well with warm colors and shades.  

                                    
Heather:
If you're looking for a lighter, more traditional grey then Heather Grey is the way to go.  This tux from Allure Men by Jean Yves is tropical weight wool with two buttons.  We think this tux is perfect for a destination or ocean wedding.
Sterling:
Sterling Grey Madison by Perry Ellis is one of the lightest grey suits that you will see.  It is very stylish and can be paired with many different colors.

Trends for Prom 2014

With prom season right around the corner we are starting to notice some interesting trends emerge.  These trends can also be applied to fashion and brides as well.  And with technology ever growing, it will be an interesting year with Instagram, Pinterest & Facebook in full use.  Be sure to be with the trends this year! 

The biggest thing we are noticing is the color red.  We're not sure if all the credit should go to Taylor Swift and her new album 'Red', but most likely it is one of the causes of this new style.  From red lipstick & nailpolish to sultry red gowns this trend will have you looking "Red Hot" on prom night!


Another fashion statement we will be seeing this year is bling.  Terani Couture is definitely using the "Big Bling" trend.  We have two new gowns that will have you sparkling on prom night.  Be on the lookout for bling this season.  You won't be able to  miss it!

The hi-low dresses have been in style for a while, but keep a look out for the new, modified version.  Cocktail dresses with long overlay skirts, usually made of chiffon, are in high demand!  We just love this black & gold one!


We are looking forward to seeing what people are wearing this year!  As always, keep ahead of the trends and don't be afraid to start your own. 

Stop by Fairy Tales Formal Wear in Glastonbury for all your prom needs.  Our newest gowns will start arriving by the end of January.  We will see you soon!
