Shabby Chic Bride

Webster’s Dictionary defines ‘shabby chic’ as a “style using deliberately worn and deteriorated items to achieve an elegant overall effect.” We’d add romantic, feminine, and dreamy to the description! Shabby chic can be interpreted lots of ways, allowing room to reflect personal style.

A woman who envisions a wedding day look reflecting her shabby chic style and eco-friendly sensibility is in luck! Often utilizing organic fabrics and found, vintage, or salvaged details, shabby chic and eco-friendly go together like peas and carrots…Here are just a few shabby chic details for an eco-shabby chic that caught our eye!

    for my parents’ 40th anniversary, my sister and i used their old invitations as a sample for the invitation we like, then we made use of recycled paper so we can easily get the “worn out” look that would give the invitation a nostalgic feeling. i think this article would create a new trend. good job! :) ) Happy Valentine’s Day! <3
