Ok so for the last hour I have tried to upload photos on my page on this ***%%$" computer and its not working. I tried my phone but that aint working either (its an iphone and it wont let me click on choose file)

I really want to ask what you all think of my chosen hairstyle but I cant add the photos I want to and its driving me insane :-(

If any of you can please help, I will post some links to photos on my on wall.

My question is what can I use in my hair with this style for example, a normal veil, a birdcage veil or just a small shiny thing...

I dont want to have nothing in my hair but I cant visualise what goes with this hairstyle.....please help ladies. Also in anyone knows what this hairstyle is called I would be enternally greatful for the name of it. I cant find very many pictures

thank you girls in advance for your help.

YEAY!! Thats amazing! Thank you so much :-) Thats exactly right. Do you like them?

Its a bit different but I dont know what will go with it...Im thinking some kind of wee clip or a small birdcage veil. What do you think?

THANK YOU soo much, I was trying for ages to upload them :-)

I think a veil will spoil the hair style as you won't be able to see it, and it's too beautiful to hide! ;)
I would go for a clip instead that goes with your theme, it would be more flattering ...... but thats just me x

You welcome :-) Happy to help!

I love them both! I love the idea of a small birdcage veil I think it will go perfect with the style also I am a big fan of them xx

Very glam. I agree that a birdcage veil would be lovely xx
- CommentAuthorRockabilly chick
Yeah, its a hard one cos in a way I want a kind cross between a small clip and a birdcage veil. I was thinking I could just make something thats a mixture of a fasinator and a birdcage veil. Cos It would need to be really small so as not to spoil the "do"

I originally wanted a chapel length veil but Im pretty sure that wouldnt work with this do

Yeah totally! Like a small sparkly clip with a wee bit of netting....I know where they sell the netting too, I could probably make something so it fits nicely :-)

YEAY. I am getting excited about the wedding day now :-D

Oh no I just asked men at my work what they think and they said its hellish! Oh no. I thought it was absolutely gorgeous but I am worried that people dont get it......

Lovely! I love the netting fascinators but will be wearing hair down and curly (pinned back in Vintage rolls) rather than an updo.
- CommentAuthorRockabilly chick
Im not sure now, I was dead excited but everyone at work looked at me like I was a nutcase lol.

Is it just cos they are phyllistines and they dont understand?? I hope so :-(

I want the girls with victory rolls and a wee flower with their hair down (like the sedond picture of Betty Grable) but my sister isnt keen.....:-(

- CommentAuthorrocketqueen
Ooh go for it, you will look beautiful - and I'd go for a nice birdcage veil... perfect!

Here comes the bride......
- CommentAuthorangelsmile
Haha listen to me Vintage rolls haha meant to say Victory rolls, silly billy!

I love the Betty Grable one with the flower, its stunning... it's not down to your sister, its down to you? xxx
- CommentAuthormtwi
I love the betty G one with flower too - I need a 50s hair do too for mine and really want a birdcage veil - Antonia9 can you say where you got yours. I am thinking of splurging a bit on one as I think my dress will be cheaper than I thought and I seem to be doing everything home made so one luxury item would be wonderful! But also - I really can't figure out why some are hundreds of pounds and others are 30-50!

Rockabilly chick - you can pick up relatively cheap versions of all the ones you mentioned on bay of e so why not try a few different ones? OR... vintage wedding fairs coming to london soon - they have lots you could try and usually have a hair stylist there too to do the do!

I have a feeling the auction site will be sick of me or else will offer me shares after I off load all of the stuff I buy to try but won't use!

I am gunna order a kinda cheapy birdcage veil from ebay. Only problem is I was off work sick for 2 months and my pay last month was awful and my pay this month will be really low too :-( so will need to wait till aprils pay to order anything :-(

The budget is all caught up in the other stuff :-/ Man I hate being skint.

Ive got a hair trial booked so Im hoping to get something before that so we can try it out :-)

I was thinking that, should the bridesmaids pick their own hair or do I have the "authority" lol to tell them how I want their hair. See 2 of the girls are really happy with the hair and the outfits but its my sister who is moaning...hmmmph
