And here are some images I found that I thought would go well with a party with this theme. Get ready to hop back in time!

These gals are festively dressed for a special occasion with pretty pastels and pumps. Photo courtesy of 100 Layer Cake.

Need some decorations? How about finding some vintage tins to fill with floral?! What a great pop of color! Photo courtesy of Rachel Ray Mag.

Or how about some vintage handkerchiefs tied together to creating a lovely bunting! Photo courtesy of Etsy.com.

And how to decorate yourself? How about with these iconic pin-up curls… they just gush retro!

And a mid-length dress with a sweetheart neckline will give you a classic look. Would be great in a pastel, like this mint green, or go with a black for a timeless look. I found this one at ModCloth.

And what is more iconic retro than a Coke in a glass bottle? These double as tasty treats, as well as decoration. Photo by Style Me Pretty.

And what’s a party without cake?! Incorporating pretty pastels automatically take this cake into a different era. Photo from Heart Handmade UK.

Hope you’ve enjoyed the retro inspired design of my own, as well as the inspirational pieces I have picked out.

What do you think? Are you thinking modest for your wedding attire?

Here are some images I captured from our trip. To me, nature is one of the most inspiring things. Within these shots, I saw great color inspiration. I’ll pulled some of my favorite color combos from the inspired nature that can easily be used for other things such as wedding themes, party schemes, outfit inspiration, and so much more! (P.S.- This also shows some of the flowers in bloom right now, if you’re planning an upcoming event!) Do you have a favorite??…

So many great colors in nature! If you’re in the Nashville area, I would definitely recommend stopping by Cheekwood… in any season!

I loved the Snow Ball Bush (seen in picture 1). They were over-sized white blooms covering the large bushes! So stunning!

This Oscar de la Renta wedding gown embodies everything that is great
about a collared shirt.

These two dresses from Karl Lagerfeld empower the collar, with a classic twist.

Loving this antique ivory silk taffeta ruffle bolero (from EnglishDept)
added to a simple wedding dress.

This would be great way to carry a collar into the bridal party… and totally re-wearable! By AmandaArcher

Even the children in your wedding party can sport the collar! This floral girl’s dress from The Children’s Place is so fun for spring!

You can’t forget your guy! This is so fantastic for the modern groom.

This is so adorable… a collar for your pooch!

I decided to lay them out in strips. Download the image below and print. Then you can cut these strips apart and play around with them, putting them together making creating your own scheme. Maybe pick your favorite, then find one or two that go with that one.

For those who have a harder time putting the colors together, I put some together for you. Below are some color combos I came up with, using the colors above. I usually like to put three colors together… one main color, a secondary color, and then an accent color that pops up in different places.

Have fun playing around with the color strips and creating your very own color schemes!
