New York Fashion Week Fall 2011 Recap: Get Inspired, Brides!
New York Fashion Week is over, but the inspiration goes on and on! One of my favorite places to get inspired is the designer catwalk.

And because designers take it to the extreme, every look that rocks the runway is multi-faceted. You can pick up a detail or two from a single runway look, and incorporate that...
Marchesa Fall 2011 RTW: Looks from New York Fashion Week
A midnight fairytale from yesteryear is how I'd sum up Marchesa's Fall 2011 RTW collection. Juxtaposing dark with ethereal, dramatic volume with paper-thin silhouettes, this collection will take you to a land far, far away. Many of the trends from NY Fashion Week shows of Jason Wu and Monique Lhuillier made their way down the Marchesa catwalk. Dresses in black, white and red dominated, romantic lace, feathers and metallic beading adorned, and luxe texture enveloped. Marchesa's...

Bridal Style Trends from 2011 SAG Awards Red Carpet
We did some major trend-spotting on Sunday night’s SAG Awards 2011 red carpet! From sleek column silhouettes to waist-cinching belts, Hollywood A-Listers were dressed to impress! Natalie Portman was a vision in a white Azzaro column gown accented with a sparkly silver embellishment at the neck. Julianna Margulies donned her column in red (designed by YSL), and Kyra Sedgwick chose classic black. The column is also known as the sheath silhouette, and this contemporary shape works...

Get inspired by these jaw-dropping creations by Elie Saab! Now we're not suggesting you spend $15,000 on a haute couture wedding dress. But it doesn't hurt to look now does it?

2011 Micro Wedding Trend- Haute Couture Bridal Headpieces
While wedding decor will be scaled back for 2011 weddings, bridal style will not! One micro trend for 2011 focuses on the bride's beautiful blushing... head. Yes, head! More and more brides will don dramatic bridal headpieces instead of traditional bridal veils. From haute couture fascinators to retro embellished turbans, brides will show their style from head to toe! I love the bridal headwear from Jennifer Behr (who also designs to-die-for bridal belts) and Twigs and Honey. ...
