From a Cake to a Dress

When we saw this fabric inspired peach cake with pink undertones on martha stewart weddings, we knew the venetian pattern would translate perfectly into a lengha - so there you have it, a cake and a dress with some serious gilt.

Love the intricate gold detailing on the cake and how beautifully it translates into that gorgeous Nilofer Shahid lengha. There's something so whimsical about the cake, especially with those dragonflies, and yet, the lengha incorporates the same elements with such a regal flair. It's all very wood nymph at a garden party.

And we're back...

Hope you all had a great holiday season and new years! We thought we'd start this brand new year off with...a cake and a dress. Two essentials for any wedding.

We are in love with this cake - the little coconut shavings add such great texture, and really play up the ruffles in that Umesh Vashisht dress (which Genelia D'Souza is rocking in Verve Magazine!).

It reminds us of When Harry Met Sally, they had a five-tiered coconut cake with chocolate sauce on the side! Are we a little obsessed with the movie - perhaps.

Here is an example of how a little burst of color can be translated into an entire outfit.

We are in love with the confetti cake featured in this month's Martha Stewart Weddings. Yet another hit from the cakegirls of Chicago (love them on Amazing Wedding Cakes). See the rest of Martha's confetti inspired ideas here!

Confession - We're using this cake and the decor ideas on Martha's site for our next party.
