Beautiful and Beautiful

2010-04-10T08:06:00.000-07:00

With the over emphasis on stick-thin figures thanks to silly celebs like lindsay, nicole and the likes, girls may think that stick-thin = beautiful. Here are some of Hollywood's gorgeous babes who embrace their healthy body weight and glow with such elegance and beauty.

Drew Barrymore - Don't you just love her cutesy face and punkish attitude. Her curvy body made 1/3 of charlie's angels. Gorgeous, confident and totally kick ass!

Love Audrina, she's so down to earth even though she starred on the hills. Well toned bronzed body and good friend lauren shows that a healthy body is a sexy one.

Hillary Duff slimmed down and lost her baby fat to unveil the lady under her skin. Here, she glows with radiance and her healthy slim physique gets an A*

Maria Sharapova, tennis Queen and Victoria Secret Model admits to munching on mini-mars bars and Subway sandwiches. Her constant trainings and healthy diet gives her the muscles and stamina to hit winning shots.

Heidi Klum is the supermodel famous for bouncing back easily to her model-physique after giving birth to her baby boy. What people don't know is that she takes great care into eating healthily and during her pregnancy on Project Runway, she drank apple cider vinegar in a champagne glass and *clinked* with the designers.

Tyra banks has never looked down on those who are a curvier then the typical model type. She even took on board plus-sized models for her reality show America's Next Top Model. Upon transiting into her late 30s, tyra banks has gained some weight but she still looks just as gorgeous, with a complexion of love.

Beyonce, the reigning queen of R&B, not quite what you call a dancer's body. Yet she dances with utmost passion and style. Shake that booty girl!

Arrangements for the wedding

2010-04-10T08:02:00.000-07:00

Becky and Leo were married on March 20th at the Edgewood Country Club in Churchill. Who would have thought they would have 70 degree, perfectly sunny weather in mid March? What a gorgeous day!

Becky and Leo had an Enchanted Forest theme which turned out so beautiful in the club ballroom. I loved the colors of the bouquets against the bridesmaids' navy dresses.

Do you know how excited I got when Becky asked me to decorate the chandeliers? FUN bride!

They were married in the center of the ballroom under our chuppah built out of branches, organza, hanging vases and crystals.

One of the best parts about having a ceremony and reception in the same place is getting to reuse everything! Those trees, lanterns and flowers down the aisle? Yes, those are the centerpieces. We were able to transform the room while the guests were sipping on cocktails in the other room.

What a great couple and fun wedding!

Handles the bride and the wedding day in the roses

2010-04-10T07:56:00.000-07:00

What happens when you combine 2 amazing photographers, 4 gorgeous models, a make up artist, a masseuse, four bouquets and a whole lot of snow?

How about a photo shoot with Aly and Derrick from How fun are these shots?! I'm so glad they asked me to be a part of this.

I have been wanting to make a bouquet out of wood and pods for awhile now, but it is such a hard concept to describe to brides. This was the perfect opportunity to showcase the bouquet that never dies. (And isn't tacky silk flowers!)

For this bride, I wanted to stay simple and bold. There is nothing more bold than a grouping of red anemones. I'm a big fan of all off the ruffles, gathers and pleats that are popping up in the fashion world. Since the bouquet was all one color, I took this as an opportunity to take the bouquet wrap to the next level.

This bride carried our romantic spring garden bouquet of anemones, poppies, garden roses, Berzelius berries, jasmine, dusty miller, parrot tulips, scabies pods, grape hyacinth and homunculus.

This model carried a purple bouquet of anemones, grape hyacinth, sweet pea, hydrangea and Vanda orchids.

Here is a centerpiece we made for Studio Bash in the style of the romantic spring garden bouquet.

Giorgio Armani – one of the most famous prom dress designers also because of its creations that are famous by Swarovski crystals sewn on it with patience and skill.

There are still lots of famous designer who create a unique, elegant and beautiful prom dress with its most unbelievable prices.

What exactly is Prom? The definition might vary depending on who you talk to. There is no official History of Prom, but there are many tales, beliefs and traditions surrounding the practice which can be shared.

For some prom is a night that girls prepare for their entire high school year, waiting for that special moment when they can shop for formal prom dresses and show off their gorgeous attire at the dance that honors their high school career.

Prom is a formal dance that can be held anywhere from a school gym to a fancy hotel. Usually a DJ is hired, and juniors and seniors are invited to spend the night dancing and celebrating (though many believe that prom night should be officially reserved for seniors).

Some girls have described their prom night as their chance to be Cinderella. This is due in part to the heavy emphasis that is placed on wearing elegant gowns and fancy hair.

Some will assert that prom is a celebration of the year and the moment marking a young adult's transformation from high school to a life of adulthood.

Whether prom is a night to remember or just a dance, it does require a little preparation. One thing that is certain, choosing a prom gown requires a little thought and planning.

Buying Prom Dresses Online

Buying prom dresses online is one of the easiest and least time consuming ways to shop. It is also a lot of fun, because you get to check out hundreds more varieties than you would if you were shopping in a traditional store.

Online shopping also offers a wider variety of selections in one handy place. You can purchase cheap prom dresses, a designer prom dress, a discount prom dress, plus size prom dress and formal prom dresses easily just through the click of a button.

You can even shop for a designer prom dress or a discount prom dress in the same place! You can usually even find special occasion dresses (so you don't need to shop for a graduation dress at a later date) at the same time you are shopping for prom dresses online, because they're often sold together.

Whether you're looking for cheap prom dresses or designer ones, there are several things you should keep in mind to ensure you pick the perfect gown.

Body Type

Body type is an important consideration when shopping for an online prom dress. In fact some might say that this is THE most important consideration when shopping. You definitely want to select a dress that matches your body type. Don't pick a dress just because it looks good on the model displaying it on the net. Why? You probably have a different body type than she does. You should choose a gown that will play up your best features.

Consider your body. It is curvy? An hourglass shape often (characterized by a large bust, small waste and curvy hips) is one common body type. Maybe it's boyish (straighter waist, narrow hips and smaller bust). Are you round all over? Perhaps you are pear shaped (larger on the bottom than on the top). Take a minute to check out your body and decide on the shape. Then you can choose a dress that will flatter it.

Here are some prom dress selections for different body types:

Hourglass - Hourglass figures are lucky, they usually look good in almost anything. Consider strapless or halter top dresses, those with sashes and cinched waists.

Straight - If you have a boyish figure, you'll want to try avoiding body hugging dresses that might emphasize your squarer figure. Try an A-line dress that is slightly fitted which will help add volume and curves. Open shoulders are a good option. Consider a dress with a flared skirt.

Rounded - For rounder figured women there are many flattering dresses. Consider ones with a drop waist and low neckline. A low neckline helps enhance the bust and the drop waist lengthens your torso. An empire cut dress is also flattering because it lengthens the body and figure overall. You might try pairing this with a slightly flared skirt.

Pear Shaped - A-line dresses that are straight cut and empire waists are good selections for this body shape, because they lengthen the legs and torso, giving the appearance of balance and height.

Sizing

How do you know what size to buy? Size is actually a big problem for many women. The closer to your actual size you get the less likely you'll need alterations. That said keep in mind that manufacturers sizes vary. You may be a size 10 normally, but that may be an 8 in some dresses and a 12 in others. So how do you know which to buy? Fortunately almost all dresses listed online will have a manufacturers sizing chart handy!! You can figure out your size by taking your bust, waist and hip measurements. Then match up your measurements with those on the chart and you'll have your size!

What if the size you are doesn't match the manufacturers chart? Let's say your bust is a 38 which is a size 10 but your waist is equal to a size 6. Which do you buy? Always go with the measurement that is largest. It is easy to take away fabric when altering a dress, but not so easy to add on if you buy a size that is too small.

" Major labels can order large quantities of organic cotton for a mainstream clothing line, but emerging Eco-designers face a series of challenges. Most mills aren’t interested in producing specialty fabrics in small quantities, forcing designers to use an extremely limited color palette (those olive greens, burlap browns and dusty off-whites) or find creative alternatives from recycling fabrics to making one-of-a-kind pieces."

Makes sense, don't you think? So what can we do to make things better, healthier, and more fair for ourselves, and for the people who make our gorgeous wedding gowns? Just start with asking questions...where is this fabric sourced? How is it manufactured? Consumers are driving this green movement, and brides can pretty much drive any changes they want in the wedding industry...look at the increased availability of recycled paper invitations....and the "conflict-free" diamond market. Getting married is beautiful, powerful, and your decisions about how you get married can change your life and the world...viva la revolution!

high fashion to david's bridal: the wedding dress

London-based designer Gary Harvey debuted his first collection last year during London Fashion Week, calling his design approach the re-contextualization of iconic, everyday garments to create dramatic new silhouettes, and thus giving new life to disposable items।

To fashion these dresses, 30 copies of the financial times were folded and attached to a corset, and 28 Army jackets were cut up and reconstructed into a fishtail cocktail dress. (here are some more things you can do with newspaper...)

10 wedding dresses were reconstructed to create this dress. Gary Harvey says: "The wedding dress is one of the most wasteful garments made to be worn once, and then either stored or discarded, and the handiwork of these dresses is often done by low paid workers who receive a fraction of the dresses final cost." And you might be shocked (I was) to learn that 40% of today's brides purchase two dresses for their wedding day...

So how about some affordable, fabulous, fair trade, sustainable wedding gowns? I know there are some out there...but I would hardly call them affordable or high fashion (sorry...) and none have yet to penetrate the behemoth David's Bridal, which is the largest seller of wedding gowns in the U।S....So what's the hold up? Here's one explanation from e Magazine (the best resource, IMHO...)

Wedding Dress Trends for 2009/2010'

2009-09-25T13:36:00.001-07:00

Our current wedding fashion trends feel really diverse – you can have a wedding gown style based on pretty much any era of fashion and still be extremely fashionable.

So what’s in store for this year and next? What wedding dress styles are hot, or going to become hot? Some leading wedding gown designers were asked that same question, and the following are what they predicted.

1.Dresses the most popular in France

2. Ballgown Styles

For those who loved the wildly ridiculous yet fabulous gowns in Gone with the Wind (*blush*), and for many of us who want to disguise our thighs, ballgown style wedding gowns are back. Fabulous! Ballgown wedding dresses have many rather wonderful upsides, including squishing you into the shape you desire, giving you fabulous cleavage, and being impossible to remove on your own .

3. Fifties style wedding gowns

This is the one I’m really very pleased about – I always have and probably always will love 50’s style glamour. There’s something about the whole belted waist idea that makes me happy. And the Stephanie Allin gown on the left is probably my current favourite gown of any I’ve seen (…and I see a LOT).

4. Mermaid Style Wedding Gowns

Apparently mermaid style wedding gowns are also a fifties influence, and thinking about it, one of my favourite dresses of all time is the dress Audrey Hepburn wore to the races in My Fair Lady – an extremely tight-fitting mermaid style gown.

5. Tea-length wedding dresses

Tea-length wedding dresses are fabulous for a more casual, less traditional wedding, especially if you have a nice pair of pins and some knock-out shoes. Once again, the 50s influence is shining through!

6. Grecian Goddess wedding dresses

Are you in touch with your inner goddess? Grecian style wedding dresses are hot at the moment – high-waist-ed with floaty materials, they would make me look like a mountain, but if you’re slim and smaller breasted, it’s a style that could look stunning.
