We don’t have fall or winter over here in the tropics, but you can’t ignore the fact that the wind is getting more chilly and the sun is shining a lot less. If you’re tying the knot during the months of November and December, keep warm by wearing a chic bolero over your wedding dress. iI’s easy to see why boleros are the craze all over bridal runways. Not only do these chic cover-ups keep the winter chill away; they are designed so unobtrusively that wearing the right bolero will add character and texture instead of taking attention away from your wedding dress.
This white Alençon lace bolero by Jim Hjelm is such a gorgeous, delicate piece, I’d hang it on a wall as a work of art instead of wearing it on my body. Pair lacy boleros with smooth satin dresses and classic, elegant cuts; lace on lace would be a bit too much.
Ines di Santo’s tulle embroidered bolero actually looks as if it’s part of the wedding dress instead of a separate piece. Wear a bolero made out of transparent fabric if your wedding dress has a very intricate, beaded neckline - it’d be a shame if nobody could see the beadwork on your dress.

Boleros are beautiful jackets with multiple uses for the bride–one is to cover up a little and another is to add at a little style!
Yes, I totally agree. Boleros are definitely a very popular trend. Very understated chic. I see more requests for it from my clients.
