Therefore bridal tradeshows is a good resource for brides and grooms planning their wedding. If you started your planning more than year before the wedding date these shows can help you with inspiration of motifs and ideas for their most special day.

For those engaged couples who already are into intensive preparation and planning phase bridal shows is a right place to meet service providers needed – photographers, florists, wedding planners, and beauty services. In these wedding events you can also choose gowns and formalwear according to latest fashion trends as well as choose your dream honeymoon destination. I highly recommend attending one of shows – helps to save time, money and gives some piece of mind. It’s all there.

If you have been looking for some original final touches for your wedding, you may find a bridal show to be helpful too. Anyway, many brides-to-be attend the shows just because it is a fun thing to do. And why not? That can be reason good enough.

Coco Chanel introduced the little black dress in 1926 and it has become the symbol of timeless fashion. A fashion must for every women and very woman needs at least one little black dress!

Before Coco Chanel made it a fashion color, black was associated with mourning. Today everyone wears black at cocktail parties as it is a common understanding that black is an evening color.  And remember – dark colors make you look thinner. Of ourse threre are multiple color combinations and colors apart from black which look stunning for evening wear, but still black is what makes you star of the evening.

Choose a well-constructed dress that is comfortable and fits well instead of following trends blindly. It is suggested to buy a dress with a lining as the lining has the advantage of smoothing your figure to give the impression of a perfect fit. If not, use Spanx as an option. Your little black dress should allow you to move or dance comfortably without thinking of your body imperfections all night long. Spanx underwear is revolutionary shapewear that gives you a fabulous silhouette to make you look and feel great in whatever you are wearing. Every one of us has a little problem area that we worry about, for some it’s the butt, for others the belly, whatever bit you might be worried about, Spanx has a great range of shapewear underwear to smooth out and shape every figure. There are butt lifting panties and stomach flattening briefs and even full body suits which means you can wear your cocktail dress with confidence. With the party season fast approaching, Spanx would be a great investment as every outfit will look better on you if you are wearing Spanx.

Cocktail dresses are meant to be knee length. Sleevless sheath is a safe style to buy that always looks elegant. The great thing about the little black dress is that it doesn’t draw attention to itself. Accessorize your little black dress to really set off your look. A standout necklace, lovely earrings, bracelet or all of them if they are matching.

Everything about the drink, including its exterior design and packaging, reflects a luxury and sophistication. New unique and stylish combination of best wine and spicy herbs comes to the shelves in a golden bottle and packed in a black case with metal plaque designed by the famous duo. Atually the cooperation began already more than ten years ago when openin the Martini bars in Milan and Shanghai, situated inside the Dolce&Gabbana boutiques.

And …Monica Bellucci. Not only Gold, not only Dolce&Gabbana, a new very unique drink needs a very special introduction. The new commercial for Martini Gold is produced by Jonas Okerlund starring the the gorgeous Italian actress. It is filmed in Rome and is based on the famous ‘’American Girl in Italy’’ motives. Beauty is fleeting, what can I say – isn’t it a very good present when thinking of gift ideas?

And then I did it regularly. I was dancing alone and had a good time It was my own little party. And then I realized that my mum had been standing and watching me for a while. She smiled and told me that I look like a princess. From that day on time to time we use to dress up on weekends together. What a fun!!!

Like mother, like daughter…. So, what’s that all about?!

First of all I think it’s just celebrating that special mother and daughter bond.

Second, I think mothers should set a good example in all areas, fashion being no exception. Most girls from early age want to look grown up. And this is a good point where to start building a good taste – to show how to dress and look grown up but not too over the top and ridiculous.

How many of you mums have dressed yourself and your daughter in matching outfits? I think all mums have to do it once! Get her matching outfit, hair and charm jewellery and maybe even makeup. My mother gave me the gorgeous present of a charm bracelet when I was young, and then every Christmas she would give me a new charm to add to it. Charm jewellery is such a special and unique gift to receive, especially from someone so close to you. Whenever we went to a special place or shared a moment together she would remember to by a little charm that represented that place or that moment. It is so nice to now have a gorgeous piece of charm jewellery where every single charm makes me smile when it reminds me of something special I shared with my mother.

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree and your child will love to see mum dressed up just like her.

Jeggings are latest in the jeans fashion. Born in last spring the clothing piece comes from merging jeans and leggings and are combined with  tanks and sweater dresses thins fall as well. Extremely tight jeans never go out of fashion so I think pair of very good jeggings is a good investment in your wardrobe.

High waisted jeans are one of the most popular styles around this season. High waist isn’t a novelty on a fashion scene, it is a comeback of high waisted jeans as they are featured in all the fashion shows for fall and winter 2010. Style of them is simple and high waist gives a slim look to a silhouette.

Patched denim is brought to runways by Chanel, Chloe and Lagerfeld for the Spring 2010 and now is widely sold in retail stores. There are plenty ideas to create own stylish outlook combining different colors and fabrics which gives a funky look.

Gray and cream are number ones this year. So the other pastel colors and also black.

All the pieces are stylish and functional in all variety knitewear has to offer – sweater dresses, cardigans, scarves, ponchos, tank tops, tshirts and sweaters. Especially scarves and wraps are so rich in texture, long, oversized and heavily ruffled to add dramatic look to the outfit.

The theme for this Fall is blended yarns of more than one fiber in fascinating executions – wool, silk, cashmere, bison. It is a full range of textures and weights in knits to have all possible patterns – chunky, hairlike or deconstructed.  Everything is comfy and warm looking.

 The images were taken in Karl Lagerfeld’s Rue de Lille studio and will be seen in June magazines. Also the two recently collaborated on French Madame Figaro that is special issue edition for Cannes International Film Festival, for which Paradis with Lagerfeld will appear on the cover.

 The line includes handbags, travel bags, and small leather goods made from nylon and lambskin on most of the bags which have a puffy finish. The Coco Cocoon collection will be in stores May 15. If you have a registered email address with Chanel online store, you can access the website and be the first to own a piece.

Little black dress and little white dress

Little black dress is always in style, but with arrivel of spring black is something you want to forget about. This year little white dress is season’s favorite and comes as alternative for little black dress, especially figure shape cocktail dresses. Laconic minimalism, simple, minimum details – that’s the key.

Inwear as outwear

This is probably trend coming back together with 80′s fashion revival because last time shift toward lingerie as outwear was in the 1980s. It emerges a fresh attention to tights and stockings as a feature piece and the corset-on view  in dresses and tops. In different styles this trend can make your look feminine, provocative and sophisticated. Silk, lace and feathers are materials combined for the look and looks best for going out dresses.

The honour to present $3 million worth diamond bra was given to Marisa Miller, but my personal admiration goes to Heid Klum who went down the runway just five weeks after she gave birth to her fourth child.
