Ivanka Trump Marries!

Tracey Duncan — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 16:27:57 +0000

Ivanka Trump married Jared Kushner this weekend at the Trump Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. Kushner is the child of another New York power family, which makes the marriage a match made in financial heaven.

Looks posh. In other news, Ivanka converted to Judaism to marry Kushner, and they were married in a Jewish ceremony by a rabbi. Mazel tov!

The official wedding photos are being kept under wraps, but we did score this candid of Ivana, the mother-of-the-bride, looking very, um, blonde and botoxed.

Hot New LBDs for Fall

Tracey Duncan — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 18:35:13 +0000

Oh, the little black dress, could there be any article of clothing more classic and iconic? No way. But this season, the LBD is taking on new shapes, and it’s all about interesting draping and asymmetrical details. Even if you usually pass LBDs by with a blasé attitude, I think you’ll be surprised at how new this old standby can look.

Oh, Alexander McQueen, you little British bad boy, do you ever go wrong? Not in my opinion, and certainly not here. The classic Grecian draping we’ve seen for the past few seasons moves, in this dress, to the bottom, which creates an unusual and striking detail on this classic hourglass silhouette. The red violet belt and front drape detail add up to a modern, feminine approach to combining clean lines with soft shapes. Available for $1,495 from Net-A-Porter.

Jil Sander made this Techno crepe asymmetric dress with her classic minimalist flare. Wait, is minimalist flare an oxymoron? I think not, as this smooth, side heavy design proves. I love the soft drape of the neckline that allows the dress to rest lightly on the shoulders, and the way the cut drapes gently along the body. Available for $1,545 from Net-A-Porter.

Vivienne Westwood’s take on the classic cocktail dress is fashion forward in a major way. The heavily draped bodice gives way to a short asymmetrical skirt. The proportions of this dress subtly balance out the figure in an alluring, edgy way. Available for $460 from Net-A-Porter.

vintage pins as hair accessories

Chloe Findlay-Harder — Tue, 06 Mar 2007 04:09:57 +0000

When my mother was married, my grandmother (her mother in-law to be) loaned her a porcelain flower brooch to wear in her hair. Now that I’m engaged, I wanted to wear the same pin that my mother did, and my grandmother before her.There was one small problem.

My Nana couldn’t find the pin. She looked all over her house. My aunt looked all over her house. My parents even looked all over Nana’s house.

And no pin.

“Oh well” I thought, I’m sure I can find more. So I started building up my own collection of porcelain flowers to wear.

And then, Nana found the pin! So I now have enough flowers to wear in my hair, as well as share with my bridesmaids.

It’s a little unusual to wear brooches in your hair, but I love the way they look – just be careful & don’t poke yourself!

Bridal Garters

Although very few people ever see your garter, the perfect one is still more important than you know. It also makes a great keepsake that you can store away and then bring out every once in a while to bring back the memories of your big day.

The Sixpence in the Shoe Superstition

admin — Wed, 05 Apr 2006 14:11:50 +0000

I was just at a wedding a few weeks ago and never thought to ask the bride if she had A sixpence in her shoe. Her family is very British, so I think that there was probably a very good chance that someone had slipped her the tiny coin. I always thought that this was for luck, but apparently it is to bring wealth to the couple. Damn… why didn’t I know about this when I tied to knot? Perhaps it just might be a good enough reason to renew the vows on our 30th anniversary. My tastes have certainly gotten more expensive over the years.
