When I was forwarded this ABC News exclusive about the controversial K-E Diet being used by brides-to-be... my jaw just about hit the floor. Now I'm as vain as the next girl, but the mere thought of inserting a feeding tube into my nose to shed quick pounds (20 pounds in 10 days) makes my skin crawl. And to pay $1,500 to do it? No thank you.
Call me old fashioned, but I subscribe to the only use feeding tubes when absolutely necessary mantra. I don't care how momentous an occasion...

Welcome to Beijing Fashion Week, where we can finally see just how creative and innovative the people are who discovered that all time fave fabric of bridal wear, silk.
I've been following Beijing Fashion Week since it premiered in 1997 and have always been left inspired. Yes, the majority of fluff on the catwalk is more like something you'd find in an art-to-wear exhibition at MOMA, a bit over the top... but then, isn't most fashion on this level?
Overall it's interesting that...

After sharing these 9 wedding dress don'ts that every bride should avoid, I got to thinking... what about the grooms? Oh, and the hapless fashion choices some have made...
Brides and grooms are two very different animals, and men in general don't care much about fashion, style or trends. Most view shopping as a punishment, not a treat, so it can only be expected that grooms take a lax approach to their wedding day attire. But an un-dapper groom won’t do his drop dead gorgeous...

I skirted a lot of traditions with my wedding, but I must admit I was a traditionalist when it came to the color of my wedding dress. But more and more I’m seeing brides who choose a really special dress to wear on their wedding day that isn’t the traditional white gown. And I’m sort of loving it.

Your wedding day should be full of bliss and it will be! You will look like a dream, your groom will be as handsome as ever, and those in attendance will be the ones who care for you most. But the moment you throw an open bar into the mix, even the tamest wedding guest (like great aunt Edna) will let loose. And when guests let their hair down, cringe-worthy moments ensue!
We asked nearlyweds, newlyweds, bridal bloggers and wedding pros to share the most awkward,...
