Little Japanese Pearl

There is definitely something to be said for Asian fashion. My friend, Ayako, is a shining example. She is really classy but always adds something extra. Over sized pearls to play up a dainty blouse or a sweet little dress with an asymmetrical twist. A floral designer by trade, she can make flora and fauna rendezvous and transfer that designer's instinct to a silk and lace ensemble. Ayako was married last weekend and her wedding duds didn't disappoint. She is a tiny thing but wore a really full skirt with a tremendous train and totally it pulled off. Her dress was a soft, off white silk adorned with delicate silk flowers. I really can't do it justice in words or photos. You had to see it in person.

Tons of family and friends came over from the mother land for the event and they were fashion eye candy too. One dude had the Asain rocker look going on with a skinny leg, pin-striped suit and long messy do. He reminded me of Big Korea. I was too bashful to take photos of complete strangers, especially foreign strangers. I did, however, snap some pictures of Ayako and her gorgeous dress.

The cutest ring bearer ever!

Love the loooonnnng train. Her skin is absolutely amazing. Too bad you didn't get Big Korea's autograph. Or at steal a dance with him at the reception.

Wow--she looks like an absolute princess! That pic of her on the stairs is tabloid-worthy.

She totally stands like show owns it, too. Go girl!

Oh, she's adorable. Despite her cute little frame, she rocked that big princess gown. Love it. And Big K. And the ringbearer.
