Friends who know me well will probably tell you Cornelia simply can't live without heels!So here are my heels picks for my big day1. Jimmy Choo Luna, red patent leather platform peep toe pumps, to go with my Chinese kwa adding a further touch of modernity2. Giuseppe Zanotti satin peep toe pumps. The vintage brooch sparkles with old world glamour, best representation of something old when I walked down the aisle3. To pair with the black sash on my Eliza gown at night, I changed to a pair of Christian Louboutin Atrapala white crepe satin pumps. The floral part on top is of exactly the same texture as the sash4. Finishing off the day with Jimmy Choo India mirrored gold leather sandals. They look perfect with both my evening dress and qipao!

Don't be mistaken that I encourage extravagance by having a fashion show on wedding day. In fact I wore my Eliza gown both day and night but in very different ways!2 magical wands to cast this little spell#1 the BELT- white silk belt embellished with crystals and glass beads vs plain black ribbon sash, contrasting not only in colors, but in textures, moods and characters#2 jewellery pairing- simple Mikimoto pearls against crystals & pearls floral set. Both sets balance off and complement the beltWhich one do you like more?
Most guests weren't able to see my Chinese kwa for the morning tea ceremony, so I'd love them to see me in traditional Chinese at night and qipao will be an indefinite choice.
By now, you should know me. I embrace traditions with nouveau interpretations. Qipao is no exception. Conventional cutting, lovebirds pattern go with 3D floral decorations and Swarovski crystals, BOTH front and back. The organza adds a final sexy touch to this lovely piece. Thanks Olivia for her magical work!
