Vera Wang Trunk Show/Cocktail Party @ the Vera Wang shop on Melrose.

Brides, brace yourselves…introducing the newest Vera Wang Spring/Fall 2010 Wedding gown collections:

Gorgeous isn’t it?

I wonder if I can afford to wear a Vera Wang dress on my wedding day if I start saving now… put aside 10% of my paycheck on the side,  planning to get married about 5 years from now, hmm maaayyybe. Just might be able to wear one… hopefully Vera will make more short wedding dresses…would be more affordable, lol.  I shall see! But in the mean time, it wouldn’t hurt to be hopeful :)

For all the brides-to-be, happy wedding dress shopping!!!

Fashion: Best and Worst-Dressed at the Oscar

.

Demi-moore-oscars-dress

Best: Demi Moor

Dressed in a soft, fluttering Atelier Versace gown, Oscar presenter Demi Moore looks sultry and sweet. She’s really amazing for her age!

Charlize-theron-oscars-dress

Worst: Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron always looks gorgeous on the red carpet, and we love her color choice and flawless hair and makeup. But with the strategically placed flower patches on her chest, will anyone even bother looking up at her lovely face?

Cameron-diaz-oscars-dress

Best: Cameron Diaz

Oscar presenter Cameron Diaz may not be up for an award, but she wins on the red carpet with her golden, beaded Oscar de la Renta gown.

Zoe-saldana-oscar-dress1

Worst: Zoe Saldana

The sequins, the purple ombre dye job and the giant poof balls all add up to just too much on Avatar star Zoe Saldana’s colorful gown. The ultra-embellished look overwhelms the petite actress’s frame.

Kate-winsley-oscars-dress

Best: Kate Winslet

Last year’s Best Actress Oscar winner, The Reader’s Kate Winslet, can rest easy knowing there’s no pressure at this awards ceremony! The actress sparkles in a chic, bustier-top Yves Saint Laurent dress.

Jennifer-lopez-oscars-dress

Worst: Jennifer Lopez

We understand Jennifer Lopez loves to show off all her assets, but this futuristic, tiered and bunched Armani Prive dress weighs her down.

Fashion Trends: Boleros

.

This fashion trend post was appeared on Completely Unveiled and I must say they really know how to style the brides.  See what they said about the boleros I’m in love with….

We seriously love the boleros of independent Irish fashion label Bonzie. With a romantic vintage feel each piece is infused with an artful blend of tattered chic, neovictorian, steampunk and deconstructed elements that we adore.

We’ve posted a few of our favorite Bonzie designs but you can visit the Bonzie etsy shop to see the latest available pieces and visit their blog for some more wedding day inspiration!

Here is a beautiful soft platinum marabou feather stole from Cassin. The bride’s dress is silver-blue taffeta with beaded lace at Eternity Birde.

Shoes that makes me smile…

.

.

I have such a love for shoes just like any other women, especially fluffy, ruffly, romantic shoes with flowers, bows or embellishments on them. I was passing by a shoe store last week and I swear this red Christian Louboutin pump said “hello” to me.

Even Cinderella needed a new pair of bridal shoes for her wedding day. We know you want your wedding day look to be gorgeous from your bridal hair to your toe.  Check out these sexy, bold and beautiful shoes that will make a statement on your wedding day.

Here’s Ines with me & Ana

A pool side fashion show was such a hit!

Oh so perfect weather for a nice outdoor event

Now let’s check out her jaw dropping dresses.

Ines Di Santo wedding gowns are always amazing. Always really high glam, really luxurious. But what I love the most about this season is the IN-FREAKING-CREDIBLE fabrics and detailing that she used. With European silks, embroidery, fabric rosettes, beading and trims…every design is a total work of art.

Gorgeous from EVERY angle, right?
