For the Love of Ruffles: A Decadent Girly DetailI'm always inspired by simple details that make a dress feel super unique. Ruffles are definitely one of those details. Take a look at some of my favorites: What do you think, inspiring?

i Do: An Engagement Ring iPhone AppJust heard about this iPhone app: Red Box Diamonds' Live Diamond Try On (this link only works if you have itunes) that lets you create an engagement ring: pick a diamond size and shape, a setting, and then virtually slip it onto your own hand! What do you think, would you buy this app or is your first stop still the jewelry store? Images courtesy of Stuller Inc. ![]() November 12, 2009

Purple Reign: An Homage to this Royal Jewel ToneThe Bridesmaids Dresses For your 'maids, I'm definitely loving the look of a conservative silhouette (this dress is by Melissa Sweet) with an avant-garde hair accessory. They've got this bow headband (above) at TopShop.com right now. Your Wedding Gown Opting for a full ball gown? It's always a good idea to define your waistline. This Amsale dress does it with a lilac sash. Super simple and super chic! Bridal Shoes These Martinez Valero Stilettos add the perfect pop of color. Plus, they'll look great with cropped black pants or distressed jeans after the wedding. Jeweled Bobby Pins I spotted these sparklers at TopShop.com. Pop them in for a fun, new reception hairdo. Colorful Watch Okay, so I wouldn't suggest wearing this time piece with your wedding gown but these brand new K & Bros Watches are just $95, and would make the perfect purple bridesmaids gift.

Seeing Red: The Hottest Hue in Bridal LipstickRight now, I'm loving the look of bold red lips. It was all over the bridal runways, and to confirm my obsession, Little J was rocking red lips at Cotillion on Gossip Girl this week (gorgeous!). Here are two of my favorite, most wearable, red lipsticks: High Impact Lip Color by Clinique in Red-y To Wear and Crème Lip Colour in Truly Red by Laura Mercier. What do you think? Too bold for your wedding or definitely doable? Lipstick smears images: Antonis Achilleos. ![]() November 10, 2009

Black Tie Affair: Not-So-White Wedding GownsBelieve it or not, black was the hottest gown hue to hit the bridal runways this season. So I thought, in an homage to Halloween, I'd highlight some of the boldest wedding gowns of the bunch. Want jewelry to pair with your goth gown? I love this necklace by Anna Ruth Henriques. The spider charm is super subtle so it's wearable the rest of the year too! What do you think: Wedding worthy, or more appropriate for a costume ball? images from left to right: Jenny Packham (1); Vera Wang (2); Runway photos by Clark Walker Studio; Necklace image courtesy of Anna Ruth Henriques ![]() October 29, 2009

Wedding Makeup: This Palette is PerfectionIt's called Stila Loves Claire Pettibone and last week, at the Claire Pettibone Bridal Fashion Show, we got a pre-release sample in our goodie bags. I, of course, did a little test run the second I got home. The plum colored trio (on the top right) is my favorite, the redish-purple really complements my hazel eyes. Now, I'm no pro when it comes to applying makeup, but these colors blended seamlessly for a flawless finish. image courtesy of Stila Cosmetics ![]() ![]() Get up-to-the-minute celebrity wedding news and Hollywood-inspired planning tips and tricks at CelebrityWeddingBuzz.com. ![]() Calling all crafty brides!
