Illusions

I don't know if anyone actually reads this; if you are and you do, I apologize for being such a crappy blogger. But sometimes it feels like doing homework, especially if I'm just doing it for myself - then it's like having a video out for too long; the mere thought of getting up and returning it is too stressful to even consider.

This struck me as too funny not to post. I'm blaming it on the heat.


Cleaning out the drawer in the sideboard with all the leftover wedding crafts items (construction paper from placecards, jordan almonds I decided not to serve, little round tulle things I was convinced I needed after reading Martha Stewart about a year ago), and I found this hair comb I didn't use.

I really liked it, very atomic 50s, don't you think? It didn't match with the dress and kept flopping over in my hair, so it stayed in the drawer.


I then looked at the tag and noticed the company is called Illusions Bridal. Now I know that there's a type of veil fabric called an illusion veil. But the name of the whole company? If a woman has to start creating illusions on her wedding day, that's kind of sad. Especially if the illusion is that of happiness - or beauty - or that of the marriage itself.

And if you're wearing the piece pictured below, what kind of illusion are you trying to create?
