Vera Wang Black Wedding Dresses

Some big news this week was the fact that Vera Wang came out with a collection of black wedding gowns. I know what most of you are thinking, how can anyone wear a black wedding dress on their big day? While I may tend to agree with you, after looking at some of the pictures of Vera Wang's new bridal designs I have to admit they're not to bad. Take a look below at some of her designs and let me know what you think about them.



What is a Micro Bikini?

So we've talked a lot about fashion and one fashion type that I am in love with are bikinis. I personally must have over 20 different pairs in all types of colors and styles. One of my favorite bikini styles are the micro bikinis. These are teeny bikinis that don't leave a lot to the imagination when you wear them out. I wouldn't say that I'm an exhibitionist but I love going out to the beach in one of these. So what exactly are considered micro bikinis? This is a honest and good question because brazilian bikinis and even sometimes thong bikinis can be considered to be micro bikinis. To me I class all three of these into the micro bikini category. They are all small and sexy bikinis that are meant for the adventurous types. A micro bikini can come in a thong or it could be designed as a brazilian bikini. Micro bikinis are built to turn heads and wearing one in any three of these styles will take some guts. If you're still not sure what is a micro bikini I've added some photo's below of some styles that I like

The Details of Wedding Dresses

Recently I went down to Kleinfeld Bridal (if that name sounds familiar they are the ones that do that show on TLC Say Yes to the Dress) and was looking at their wedding gowns and it got me really inspired. No not inspired to get married, but if my prince charming is out there contact me, but instead more inspired to create my own designs. Looking at the details of these wedding dresses it amazes me how much time these designers spend on each gown. When you think about it though they really have to because they're dealing with a clientele that expects perfection and nothing else. Looking at these wedding dresses you can tell the designers thought about everything and made sure each part was made perfectly. Below are some of my favorite wedding designs.

Picking out that perfect little black dress

One way a woman can look extra sexy and slim for special occasions is by wearing a hot little black dress. Recently I just bought one and let me tell you, when I wear this dress I'm turning heads. I recently went down to one of my favorite local boutiques in my area I began my search for the right black dress. One of the first things I looked for when deciding which one was right for me was by looking at the length. While I wanted to look really sexy in this dress I didn't want it to be so high that I would be worried about bending over and my underwear showing to everyone.

Another thing that I looked for and also recommend to others when looking for the perfect little black dress is the material. The material that I wanted for my little black dress was silk. I really like silk because it feels great on my body and it makes the dress look a lot more sleek.

A third thing to look for when searching for that black dress is the way it fits your body. You want to make sure that it's not loose fitting but also not to tight were it's hard for you to move around. You need to find a mixture of comfort and practicability. Using these tips that I use can help you find the right little black dress that you can wear out and not need to worry about whether you look hot or not.

Paris Fashion Week

So as I've mentioned before, with a lot of excitement, I'm going to New York fashion week but one that I would love to go to next time is fashion week in Paris. I personally consider Paris to be one of the meccas of fashion with the looks and designs being so unique that you have to love them. I've followed the happenings of what's going on in Paris because they are usually one of the leaders of what the hot new trend will be. From Paris, here are some of my favorite looks from their fashion shows.

Shopping Therapy

Well this weekend I had to do some serious shopping therapy. I had a really bad week and the only cure was to head down to the Mall and hit up my favorite stores. One of the first stores I hit up was of course Hollister. What I was looking for was a new before of shorts and if possible a skirt. I didn't find a skirt but I did find a pair of cute shorts that I bought. Total spent so far, $60. The next store that I went to was Sephora. At first I wanted to just buy some new nail polish but was then quickly distracted by this new bikini wax kit. Bought that and some new nail polish and my total spending for the day went up to $160. My budget for the entire day was to spend no more than $150 but just after 2 stores I was over it. I continued on and headed to Banana Republic. I really needed some new work clothes and found a cute skirt and top that looked perfect together. So as you can guess I bought those as well so my total quickly went up to $250. When I realized I was $100 over my budget I decided to only visit one more store and that being Victoria Secret. Went in only looking for a new bra but as you can guess I ended up with a lot more. I think I ended up spending over $100 there so my total ended up being around $360. I will update that I went over my budget but I really needed this shopping therapy. I guess this will have to last me a while since I went so much over my limit.

New York Fashion Week

Next year I'm planning on going to New York Fashion week and experience the glitz and glamor of it all. If you don't know what New York Fashion week is well it's basically when the down fashion designers come to New York and show off some of their new lines. A lot of celebrities come to New York for this to see what are the hot new trends and to be seen. I've always wanted to go to this but never had the time or money so I'm really thrilled about this. When I get there I will make sure to post a lot of pictures as I will try to attend as many shows as possible.
