When a high profile celebrity gets married, she typically has her choice of gowns and accessories, no matter the price. So it's not surprising that a woman like Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice star Kate Walsh looked so incredibly radiant on her big day. While designers may not be lining up to make you the perfect wedding gown, and your guest list might not include McDreamy, Dasha Boutique designer Sarah Stephens will show you it's cheap – and easy! – to capture Walsh's wedding style on her own day.
Delicate Sparkle
As if her engagement ring from husband Alex Young didn't sparkle enough, Private Practice star Kate Walsh opted for Neil Lane diamond jewelry throughout. Her style is usually quite simple and includes single chain necklaces with small pendants, short drop earrings and tennis bracelets. The diamonds set off her strong red locks, acting as a natural enhancement of her natural features. For a look that echoes this actress's love of delicate adornments (but not her endless pockets), opt for sterling-silver based jewelry coupled with raw diamonds and clear, sparkly gemstones like quartz and moonstone.
Get the Look
Kate's diamond and platinum chandelier earrings look a lot like these Keishi Pearl Cascade Earrings.
Jewelry is the secret weapon of every female celebrity, whether she's walking the aisle or stepping out to the corner store for another box of ginger tea. A subtle pair of earrings, a bracelet full of bling, or a bold gemstone pendant necklace all add a particularly personal touch to an outfit and over time, each individual woman's accessory style becomes part of her signature look. Unlike clothing, the most beautiful jewelry is timeless, so it can be worn again and again, with almost any outfit. However, just like clothing, jewelry colors and designs must be tailored to the individual wearer to complement her natural features best. So while you read up on these particular celebrity looks, keep in mind that accessories are your opportunity to make your wedding ensemble specifically yours and act as a subtle reminder to all how personal this day really is.
