Alexander McQueen's Heart Peep-Toe Pumps at Net-a-Porter.com.
I haven’t blogged about shoes in a while, and shoes always make me happy, so here goes! These exquisite peep-toe pumps are absolutely perfect in every way, and proof-positive why the late Alexander McQueen was a true fashion genius: they’re sexy (yes, white satin can be sexy!) and daring with a dash of whimsy—in case you hadn’t noticed, the “peep” is actually heart-shaped. Check out the detail shot after the jump! Read the rest of this entry »

Did you know Juicy Tubes is celebrating its 10th anniversary? It’s hard to think it’s already been that long since the yummy glosses hit the beauty scene. When I bought my first tube it was a splurge for me at the time and I was obsessed. Today I have even more reason to be obsessed as Juicy Tubes has also gotten a makeover, both inside and out.

Ok, so I called this post the The DIY Birdcage Veil Experiment because I wasn’t really sure I could pull this off from the get-go. Before you read on, I will happily report that the experiment was a success, thanks in no small part to the multitude of DIY websites and forum posts that I found on the subject. I tried a few of these out (like this one from oncewed.com and this one from bridalguide.com) but in the end came up with my own simplified version of this project by Made by Amy, which I have laid out step by step for you here. As you can see, the supplies and steps in this project are minimal. I trimmed down the one by Amy because, well, with all the millions of things to plan for the wedding I figured the easier, the better! So here you go, my DIY Birdcage Veil… Read the rest of this entry »

Model Monika Schnarre on our Fall + Winter 1987 cover.
Imagine my surprise last week when an email from model/actor Monika Schnarre appeared in my in-box. Just in case you are not familiar with Ms. Schnarre, at 14 she won Ford Model’s Supermodel of the world contest and appeared on the cover of Vogue AND Weddingbells (more on that in a mo). Her acting resume includes TV shows including Beverly Hills 90210, Charmed, The King of Queens, and more. Monika is newly engaged and dropped me a line to share her good news and her surprise at seeing her 1987 Weddingbells cover printed again as part of a gatefold featured on our new issue which pays tribute to our 25th anniversary.

The Oscar fashion rundown continues! Obviously, I couldn’t agree more with Alison and Stephanie: Sandra Bullock was the picture of perfection in Marchesa, Cameron Diaz sparkled in Oscar de la Renta and Anna Kendrick was a blushing beauty in Elie Saab. Coincidentally, all of these labels just happen to have bridal lines! Read the rest of this entry »

Like Alison stated in her round-up yesterday, Sandra Bullock was flawless in her Marchesa sheath. I too was a big fan of the look (really there were a lot of Marchesa hits including Vera Farmiga’s fuschia ruffled number and newcomer Gabourey Sidibe in a sapphire silk creation). Other favourites of mine included Up in the Air nominee Anna Kendrick who donned a blush Elie Saab. If white isn’t for you on your wedding day, this colour is so pretty and soft and also very on trend! Read the rest of this entry »
