Velvet, single-breasted jackets and lumberjack shirts were my chief reasons for rummaging around my local Oxfam store back in 1990. Grunge is what we all lusted after and Oxfam, with its harsh strip lighting and racks of fusty clothes, was as grungy as they made it in suburban Surrey. [read more]

Vera Wang Wedding Dresses
Choosing a bridal gown can be one of the more difficult parts of planning your wedding. The venue you choose for your wedding day will help determine the formality of your bridal gown and attire. For example, you will not want to wear a ball gown with a cathedral length train to your morning wedding ceremony & late morning brunch. Like-wise a simple T-length sundress would not be a appropriate for an evening gala.
For brides with a bigger budget, designer gowns are a very popular choice. And one of the most popular designers among brides & Hollywood stars alike is Vera Wang. Her styles range from simple and classic to bold and contemporary. All of her gowns are timeless works of art, and every bride can be sure to find a beautiful Vera Wang wedding gown that fits her style.
Vera Wang began designing bridal gowns in 1990 after finding it difficult to find a bridal gown that reflected her personality. Some of the Hollywood starts who have worn Vera Wang wedding dresses included Jennifer Lopez, Holly Hunter, Uma Thurman, Sharon Stone, Mariah Carey, Tamia, Jessica Simpson, Vanessa Williams, Kristi Yamaguchi, Debra Messing, Angie HarmonTerri J. Vaughn, and Kerenna Gore. Vera Wang releases new styles twice a year and her prices start at around $2300.00, with many of the gowns in the $5000.00 range. All Vera Wang gowns include a Certificate of Authenticity.
Are you in love with a Vera Wang wedding dress, but don’t have the budget for her gowns? Shop around on the Internet and your local Bridal Salons and Consignment shops and you may luck out and find a bride who is selling her previously worn gown, or a salon selling their sample Vera Wang gowns.
Vera Wang on Weddings Book Description
The world's most successful bridal gown designer shares her vision for this most important event -- the wedding. Rather than a soup-to-nuts approach with endless lists of what to do, Vera Wang details each aspect of the wedding with her thoughts and ideas, culled from years of experience in the wedding business.
From budgets and bouquets to cake and communication, Vera imparts her wisdom and advice. All the traditional parts of planning a wedding -- invitations, registries, and music -- are included, but what sets this book apart from all the others are the little things she pays attention to. The First Dance. The Bride Who Wears Glasses. Fittings (and weight fluctuations!). The Garter (“Do I Have to Do That?”)
A wedding book by Vera Wang wouldn't be complete without detail on the bride's gown. She explains how to select the right neckline, construction, length, bodice, and waistline for each bride's figure. What fabrics are appropriate for certain times of day. How to choose among a veil, headband, flower blossoms or bows for a headpiece. All of this is accompanied by hundreds of photographs that illustrate Vera's vision.
