I saw a post on Wiley Valentine today with these gorgeous ballerina inspired images (you can see the full post here). I just happen to have a tentative date with a girlfriend of mine (and our husbands if they are up for tapping into their feminine sides) this weekend to see Black Swan which reminded me of all the tulle I saw on the runways this fall…

Real bridal style. You can go as literal as you want, although the straight up tutu dress is a little too literal for me

I’m very excited to present today’s designer Sarah Jassir. She is known for her mix of architectural and feminine details, and I really haven’t seen anything else like it. I picture a fabulous soiree at an Art Museum or great loft overlooking a city lit up at night. Of course, she has her version of a non-white wedding dress too.

How would you feel about your wedding dress being your “something blue?” Or you wedding dress being nude or pale pink? The blue dresses were shown at Romona Keveza, the pale pink was shown at Randi Rahm, and the nude dress was shown at Marchesa’s Ready to Wear Show, although it would be a stunning wedding dress for the non-traditional bride.

This Spring 2011 Monique Lhuillier dress inspired today’s post. I must look at hundreds of wedding dresses on a regular basis, and some run together, but there are some I can not forget, and I am currently having a small love affair with this one.

I never thought I would be a sleeve girl (I wore strapless), but recently I have been seeing more and more dresses with sleeves (short, cap, 3/4 etc) that are more feminine, modern and oh so memorable.

Eat your heart out. I keep coming across these dress that are just so stinking pretty. They remind me of what Tinsley Mortimer (High Society anyone?) would wear. Personally, I just like to look at them.
PS- please don’t stop reading my blog because I referenced one of the many lame reality shows I watch. They are a secret vice of mine, well not so secret anymore! Who doesn’t love a little (or a lot) of reality TV once in a while, right?

Net-a-porter.com always has a lovely collection of goodies. My husband would definitely dis-own me if I gave into every craving, but that doesn’t mean I can’t share! Here is Lanvin’s take on bridal by way of ready-to-wear. They pretty much cover all the bases, but add an Alexander McQueen heart shape peep-toe pump, and Louis Mariette headband, and voila it’s a girly girl’s dream come true.

For a destination based website, it’s only obvious we highlight the beach bound bride. She loves that a destination wedding allows her to have a more intimate affair with the people who matter most to her. Her wedding venue is the perfect opportunity to play with bright color schemes like pink & orange, turquoise & yellow, or turquoise and red. If she typically shys away from bold color she can use softer colors with subtle pops of color. Her dress is relaxed and moves with ease. Designers Vera Wang, Monique Lhuillier, J.Crew, Nicole Miller, Temperley London and Rosa Clara make picking just one dress a challenge. This wedding is sure to leave everyone feeling refreshed and, most importantly, tan!

The Modern bride is anything but predictable. She opts for unconventional yet fresh and fashion forward elements. Her dress maybe classic in shape but has an edge to it like metallic, peplums, or generally any trendy detailing. This is the girl who is most likely to wear one of the colored wedding dresses that are popping up across the bridal circuit. Dress designers who get her mod vibe are Lanvin, Jenny Packham, St. Pucchi, Priscilla of Boston, Michelle Roth, and Jenny Lee. This modern girl is sure to shake up the wedding stereotype.
