Illusion bodice detail.

This a very daring and sexy look, the floral detail covers up the right places. What I like about these designs is that they are not too full on. The nude design is very tastefully placed.

3D Floral Appliques:

This detail is very romantic and can bring a wedding dress to life. Whether the floral embellishment is a small feature on the dress or throughout.This trend is sure to be a show stopping look.

 Rivini




Angel Sanchez

Feathers:

This is just oh so glamorous and it shouts "HOLLYWOOD" to me. Add a twist of elegance to your look with this trend  This look like the floral appliques can be just a touch of feather detail or full on.

Keyhole Neckline:

If you like the look of a high neck dress, but would like something a bit different, then the keyhole trend is for you, it adds some daring to the dress without being too risky.

Over Skirts:

This subtle add-on brings a fairytale feel to the dress. The overskirt is sheer,soft and floaty and it also adds another element to the a-line dress.

The suit/two piece

Not every bride wants to wear a dress, so the suit/two piece is one to try. This look would also work for the day after the wedding. I can see this look being very popular among brides that want to step away from the traditional.

Thigh-High Slits:

This look is very Angelia Jolie (remember that dress). The dress can feature one or two side slits.I can see these look at a wedding abroad or a City wedding, it is Simply elegant.

Tiered Skirts:

Tiered skirts will add texture and movement to a dress. It definitely has a princess look to it and can be very dramatic depending on the style.



Alvina Valenta 




Marchesa




Monique Lhuillier




Sheer Skirts:

The sheer bottom reveals a little (offers a peekaboo effect). This is another glam look for sure.

Kiehl's Apothecary Preparations Review

Image from Kiehl's website Hello all, this post is dedicated to Kiehl's Apothecary Preparations. What is that I hear you ask? Apothecary preparations is a high level of Personalized skincare. It addresses the following skincare concerns: WRINKLE REDUCTION TEXTURE REFINING VISIBLE REDNESS NEUTRALIZING PORE MINIMIZING BRIGHTENING I find the older I get (mid-thirties ouch) the more focused I am on my skin, I have invested in my skincare more than I used to, by adding in some high-end products. I believe in paying for a good serum. Although this product was kindly sent to me to try out, all views expressed are my own. In terms of using Kiehl's, this is my first time to use the brand and I was really intrigued to see what it was like on the skin. Kiehls as a brand has been active since 1851 so I think it's safe to say that they know what they are doing and they know what works. This range takes the brand back to its roots of creating persona...
