Colorful Wedding Dresses

The Right Colored Wedding Dress

Adding colour to their gowns expressing their personalities and to keep the wedding look updated.

Color could be added to a wedding dress with embroidery, a band at the top of the neckline or bottom of the hem, within the open train, or a sash around the waist. Wedding brides are incorporating their best colors be it purple, green, or black or just adding color to match with their wedding party. Brides in China wear red and a bride from Ireland may have a bodice of emerald green velvet.

You may desire to choose a wedding gown that isn't white at all. It will be surprising to your guests, but it will also be memorable. If you want to make sure that a colored dress still has the feel of a wedding dress, choose a silhouette that your average wedding guest wouldn't wear - like a full skirted ball gown. It may be rich gold or deep violet, but it will still resemble a traditional wedding gown.

Maybe you have a classic dress that is a family heirloom that has unfortunate staining. If the fabric is in good shape, speak with a professional and find out if the dress will withstand being dyed a slightly darker color. It's a great way to preserve a piece of your family history.

You don't have to have a bold colored dress. Some brides opt for a colored dress for practical reasons. It may be that the pure white of a traditional dress doesn't flatter your skin tone or maybe this isn't your first wedding. In any case, you may choose a dress in a subtle champagne, silver, or a pale pink. Adding color to your wedding dress doesn't have to be some huge fashion statement.

Simple Wedding Dresses 2011

Simple Wedding Dresses In The Year

Each bride has a picture in their mind of the perfect wedding - the flowers, the setting, the music - all of it working together as the background for the start of her new life as a married woman. Some women want a dress that outshines the brightest star while others want something simple. The simple wedding dresses showing up for 2011 are feminine, romantic, and sophisticated.

A simple wedding dress relies on the fabric and cut to make a statement rather than a significant amount of trim, the train, overstated sleeves or layers of rousing.

Smooth fabrics with a slight sheen, like satin, are ideal for a simple wedding dress. The fabric moves gracefully and feels lightweight although it looks rich and elegant.

Wedding dress collections on the market this year are playing up the look of some vibrant colors with white and off white fabrics. Some simple banding in red against a stark white background is incredibly eye catching on a bride. In a simple silhouette, this is also the kind of dress that can be used later for other occasions.

Other trends for this year's more understated gowns include minimal lines of hand beading or small touches of fabric rosettes.

The Alier Monapoleone 2011 collection is inspired by outdoor elements like flowers and garden and includes lots of tulle gowns in pale colors. The lighter color gives the bride another way to stand out without going for something extravagant or over the top.

Many collections are also including tea length dresses in their lineup. These dresses are simple in nature and again rely on cut and fabric to make a statement.

Mr. Rermin designed his wedding dresses for 2011 based on a very simple style. What may surprise you is that he even remembered to take the bride's body shape and taste into account. He'll actually meet with the bride and design the dress based around her expectations. Not everyone can afford such service but you can get something similar online where the dresses have been designed to offer brides today's fashions at an affordable price and with a wide variety of sizes including plus sized gowns.

There are a wide range of colors from which to choose your simple wedding dress. Colored ceremony gowns are popular in some locations of the world and appropriate for an understated ceremony.

Each dress selection is unique for every bride. Not everyone has the large, layered ball gown in mind. Something less showy can actually a better choice for some body types as the dress won't upstage the bride. Simple wedding dresses for 2011 seem to have kept that in mind.

Tammy NUMBER 1!!

If you are not watching Parks & Recreation, you should be. I'm only going to tell you so many times. It's high-larious. Anywho, Tammy #2, Ron Swanson's second wife (obviously) is Megan Mullally. Side note: Whom is his real life wife too. At the end of last season, we learned that there is one person who scares MM and that's Tammy #1. Now, we know who she is. It's not Oprah, unfort. TV Line reports that Patricia Clarkson has been cast as the first wife of Nick Offerman's gloriously mustachioed meat-loving character. Tammy #1 has previously only been mentioned in past seasons through his haunted memories. Can't wait to watch.

Entourage Sold

The gated Tuscan Villa that was Vincent Chase's home on season 7 of Entourage sold for 4.2 million. The 9,010-square-foot house -- which first came on the market in 2010 at $5.75 million before taking a haircut to $4.85 million -- has seven bedrooms, eight bathrooms and seven fireplaces, most of which were never seen on TV. Entourage launched its eighth and final season last week.

It's 90210 Time

Update on Taylor Armstrong getting divorced. She says Russell beat her. I know Taylor, he gave you a big fat lip, we could all see it. Glad you are moving on. 

There are a few new ladies joining my favorite housewife franchise. Though, won't be officially given credit as a new housewife but will be prominently featured. Huh. Kinda weird but nonetheless, these ladies are sure to stir up some dramz:

Brandi Glanville – whose ex Eddie Cibrian just married Miss Healthy Leann Rimes –  and big breasted businesswoman Dana Wilkey. I mean, they look ginormous right?

Jen & Seraphina

Happy Thursday y'all. Cute mama and daughter pic.

It died.

As usual, I had driving lessons today. By now I've gotten quite used to my driving instructor's scoldings that it has become like... normal talking. It doesn't affect me anymore.

So I was driving to the driving academy from my house, using his car. The engine died a few times (released clutch too fast) and finally, it died in the middle of the road. At this bridge thingy going uphill where there's two lanes.

HAHAHA OMG. That was so dramatic. Had to take out the bricks and stick up a pole to let people know there's a dead car. And then he called the foreman. "My car died in the middle of a two lane road and one of the lane is blocked by my fucking car!".

It took a while, the foreman finally came in his motorbike. Popped up the hood, hot-wired the engine, but na-da. Took a while to find out the culprit. Turns out one of the wire was torn/broken from the battery.

The foreman explained that wires sometimes get torn when they're too old. Like really old. I remember asking the driving instructor how old the car was. "Older than you". Which makes it... around two decades old. The driving instructor kept trying to make me feel guilty. I like the foreman more. He was like, "noooo, too old already will spoil one".

The driving instructor was like, when you make the engine die, the thing will shake and the wire will get loose! At first he was very stressed when that thing died on the road but later that he calmed down. Lolol. Shit. So I missed 2 hours of class(have to pay) but whatever, I'm just nervous for the test. I don't wanna fail and then waste more time, more money. NOOOOO.

So that was the story of getting stuck in the middle of the road for 2 hours with your car dead.

School today was shokay.

HEHEHE. Usually I'm the one who always brings magazines to school. Today Sim Kuan brought her Pop-Teen. Xuan brought her Vivi. I bought my Vogue. LOLOL we all have magazines we specialize in. <3 Three of us are from different classes but come to the same one during Commerce. How fateful. :D

While teacher's teaching, we're salivating over all these:


TROLOLOL. It's fun to read with friends, exchange comments on the fashion, gawp and bitch about the models and compare everything. I'm a magazine hoarder. Again, SELVAN. The magazine store at my second home in The Curve.

HAHAHHA. They sell magazines that are old, but new. Old issues, but never read before. Vogue is about RM18.90 or RM22.90 depending on which region/bla. And the "old issues" (several months back) costs about RM5. So of course I'd rather wait and get four issues for the same price. MUAHAHAHA.

That's bout it.

Till then :)

Let Google Maps 5.8 for Android Take You Places And More With Photo uploads, My Places, and more!

Google Maps 5.8 for Android http://snapvoip.blogspot.com/

Looks like Google Maps for Android is ready to take you places or help you to organize and keep the memories you made at various places. Because the first thing I read bout the Google Maps 5.8 for Android was that it can complement and improve, Google Places and Google Latitude, by (I have not downloaded the Google Maps to my Android Tablet, EEE Pad Transformer, yet so I will have to take Benjamin Grol, a Google Product Manager's word for it;

Upload photos for a Place

My Places as a simple way to manage the Places you’ve starred and recently viewed
Descriptive terms for Places in search results
Add a new Place on-the-go when checking in

With photo upload feature you can enhance others experience of places you have been by contributing photos of places you have been. If your photo is a striking one, your photo might end up being the profile photo of that place page!

My places and descriptive terms came to the desktop version of Google Maps this June but now you, moblie Google map user, can enjoy the same features. Descriptive terms will appear when you search places. If you press your phones 'Menu' button while in the Google Maps, you will be taken to 'My Places'.

The other notable feature is now you are able to add places while on the go. This will come in handy if one of your favourite places is not in the Places list. If you do a search on places for a location that you know exists and come up with nada, you can use the option, 'add a place', to add the place that can be checked in via Latitude. Do not forget that ‘Download map area’ has been renamed ‘Pre-cache map area.’

So the next thing for me and you is to get the Google Maps 5.8 for Android but make sure that you have at least Android 2.1+ OS on your device.

Google Maps 5.8 for Android adds photo uploads, My Places, and more

Wedding Dresses

Dressing For A Wedding - Tips To Look Good

There is a unique style that can be followed for every other wedding you attend depending on the location, the time and the season. If the invitation is addressed formally, it implies that the guests are required to dress formally for the occasion. On the other hand, a casual invite suggests that the guests can dress casually for the wedding.

For selecting what to wear, the wedding location can be of great help. For a beach wedding or a wedding in a lawn, steer clear of high heels as they tend to sink in the sand and the grass respectively. For an outdoor wedding, very light dresses have to be shunned as they tend to get caught with the wind. A subtle dress can be worn for a wedding at a warm and humid location. However, if the wedding is to take place at a club or a five-star restaurant, you can prefer being wearing a tailored suit or any other dressy outfit.

# OUTFITS FOR THE SUNSHINE WEDDING:-

For the 40+ women:-

1. A nice fitted skirt with a sweater and sling back shoes.

2. A suit in a subtle color which is not too formal.

3. A dress with a nice floral pattern.

4. A striking hat which would go well with the outfit and would compliment it.

For the 40+ men:-

1. A linen or seersucker suit in a light color is the most apt outfit for a summer wedding.

2. For winter weddings, go for darker shades and warmer fabrics. Woolen suits, charcoal pants, ties and a sweater beneath the blazer are a nice option.

3. A blazer together with a dress shirt, pants and a tie is another elegant option.

4. If the wedding is before 6pm, a tuxedo can be adorned.

5. For a wedding which is formal, a dark colored suit is the best bet.

# OUTFITS FOR THE EVENING WEDDING:-

For the 40+ women:-

1. Dressing for an evening wedding should be similar to the way we dress for a theatre or dinner.

2. An elegant and not so revealing cocktail number in black is an excellent option.

3. A dressy cocktail suit is also a safe bet.

4. Sequins and beads are to be avoided if the wedding is a formal one.

5. Darker colors would help present your self in a more sophisticated way.

For the 40+ men:-

1. For a semi-formal or casual wedding, slacks coupled with blazer and a matching tie can be sported.

2. Suits in dark colors are always accepted and most preferred.

# FOR THE FORMAL WEDDING:-

For the 40+ women:-

1. A gorgeous cocktail dress touching the floor.

For the 40+ men:-

1. The dress should be really formal.

2. Tuxedo is the best option for such an occasion.

WHAT NOT TO WEAR!

- Anything too revealing and sexy.

- A dark colored outfit for a morning wedding.

- White should be dissuaded. Especially, a white colored outfit without any prints. This is because; it would steal the limelight away from the bride.

- Jeans

- Tattered and tainted dress must not be worn.

- Too small or too big dresses are also out of question.

- If the wedding is a religious one, sleeveless and strapless dresses are to be avoided. Bare shoulders have to be covered.

SUITABLE ETIQUETTE FOR WEDDING GUESTS:-

-Punctuality is vital. It is necessary to be present in the venue of the wedding at least fifteen minutes before the start of the ceremonies so that there is enough time to find a seat and settle down.

- Purity of the wedding has to be preserved. Guests should avoid clicking pictures. They should rather let the photographers do their task properly.

- Gifts need not be brought to the venue of the wedding. They can rather be delivered to the house of the couple anytime within one year from the date of wedding.

- In case of failure to make it to the wedding, the gift becomes an essential.

- Bringing uninvited guest is considered discourteous. Bringing is permitted only if it has been mentioned in the invite.

- Getting drunk at a wedding reception is disrespectful and offensive.

- Unwanted mingling with people you hardly know should also be avoided.
