When the landscape becomes an ethereal winter wonderland, it easily lends itself as an enchanting backdrop for weddings. Unfortuantely, the chilly temperatures counteract its charm, and newly engaged couples pencil in their nuptials for warmer seasons. But with accessory assistance, you can take advantage of Mother Nature's beauty (as well as the off-season discounted prices). Our February issue features a ton of whimsical winter accessories, and while we love our designer duds, you can't go wrong with a little DIY.
 
We're loving this simplified earwarmer tutorial by Delia Creates. With easy step-by-step instructions, you can create a simple, masculine design or embellish it with customized accents. Be sure to use soft fleece or wool material to keep your wedding day hairstyle from becoming disheveled. Delia offers a base pattern that you can use for a variety of designs, several of which she illustrates on her blog.
Check out deliacreates.blogspot.com for the full tutorial.

Tie Try, a tie rental service, is the latest of style subscriptions to hit the market.
By Jonathan Bender
The essential part of tying together your morning routine to enter corporate America is about to plunge into the realm of style rentals. After sitting through an episode of ABC’s Shark Tank (for which I’ll forgive him), Scott Tindle and his partner David Powers hit a creative streak which soon turned into Tie Try, a subscription rental service for neckwear.
 
“The same way a kid doesn’t want to play with the same toy all the time, a man doesn’t want to wear the same tie,” Tindle shares.
The market Tindle and Powers are sure to break new ground with is the wedding circuit. Marrying the idea of style with subscription, where it has already begun with Tie Society , could very well help aid the problem of “what do I wear?” to a friend’s wedding, as well as cut down costs for the wedding party with designer offerings from Dior, Lanvin and more.
Following in the footsteps of the iconic red-enveloped DVD subscription service, customers pay for an account that entitles him or her one to five ties from Tie Try’s virtual rack at a time, keeping them as long as desired. Once they mail it back, the next in queue is shipped.
As weddings are the only surefire static entity in our economic climate, it’s not a bad idea to dive into this style saver that’s cost efficient and aids your indecision. Save the commitment for the altar, I say.

“Marry me already or I’m out,” sounds a bit sitcom-y, but for my mother it was time. After meeting on a blind date back in the 70’s, she was finally tired of waiting. Not much of a bling-queen, she required something a bit more useful than a diamond: a bedroom set. “Well, we do have to sleep at night … don’t we?” I always dug her rationale, as I’m not really one for jewelry either, but I’m finding that wearing my heart on my designer sleeves has my mind in a tizzy over engagement rings. Sure, I’m happily single but a boy can dream of ivory and diamonds! Ok, maybe not ivory, but I digress. Recently, with “Glee” raising the bar (with YouTube flash-mob inspiration, no doubt), I’m finding my sappier side unleashing into the world of matrimony.
The masculine engagement ring isn’t “just an afterthought anymore,” as A. JAFFE designer Laura Moynahan tells us. “They want a ring that is carefully, thoughtfully designed and more than just a basic wedding band.” She’s right. Something as complex as marriage, it’s many layers does require thought, precision and an effortless appearance. Where I may lie between Moynahan and my mother, I’m a firm believer of “it’s the thought that counts.” If that thought just so happens to come with a flash-mob and a ring, who am I to oblige?
Three of my favorites in A. JAFFE’s collection:
A chic, fashion forward look (style #BB0111BD) with the black diamonds, this ring revels in it’s simplicity.
The Morse Code Ring—created in platinum—features baguettes that spell out customized phrases to match you and your beau.
A classic look (style #BB0147) that’s most masculine and elegant in either black or white diamonds.
