    J Crew Bridal - For Like Ever

    On the back wall were a few dressing rooms to try the off the rack RTW, and a huge mirror/mannequin at the top of the stairs. By far the most out of standard J. Crew character (but lovely) decoration was the framed poster proclaiming, “FOR LIKE EVER.”

    All Prince Street location appointments have moved to the new store, and it’s beautiful! Two lovely front windows are dressed with the line, and inside, we were greeted at the front desk with bellinis and sparkling water. White peonies decorated the room. To the left of the front desk...

I'm a slim pear, 35 bust, 26 waist, and 39 hip, will this dress flatter my figure?

Nordstrom and J. Crew bridal collections top the list for their selection of dresses under $500.

A new buying guide by Cheapism.com, a review site dedicated to finding quality, low-cost products, points brides-to-be to the best places to shop for cheap wedding dresses . Nordstrom and J. Crew earn top billing for offering high-quality gowns at affordable prices, both online and off. Nordstrom currently showcases 14 gowns and numerous short dresses under $500 on its website, while J. Crew’s collection includes 10 styles. Bloomingdale’s, another good choice, offers 28 dresses priced under $500.

Wedding dress reviews indicate that brides want quality fabric and construction, service that's attentive without being pushy, and clean gowns to try on in stores. Reviewers say Nordstrom offers modern, sophisticated dresses, while J. Crew features wedding dresses made of high quality material in classic and flattering silhouettes.

Friday Frock: Altuzarra for J. Crew Sabrina Dress

18.05.12

Earlier this week the collaboration between J. Crew and this year's CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund honorees - Joseph Altuzarra, Pamela Love and Creatures of the Wind - was announced. The Altuzarra for J. Crew collection is already available and one of our favorites is the Sabrina dress, $228. It comes in this lovely dusty blue and also a navy.

Paris-born Altuzarra says: "My inspiration for this collection was Brigitte Bardot in Saint-Tropez and French preppy style." Bardot apparently wore gingham on her wedding day!

The J. Crew summer staple Thomas Mason gingham was reimagined in a sleek contoured dress with flattering seams at the hips and gently molded cups to keep the sometimes overly innocent pattern a bit sexy. A prim grosgrain ribbon accents the waist. Altuzarra says it's the perfect summer cocktail dress.

The cotton sleeveless dress is lined and features boning at the sides for added support, there's a hidden back zip and the straight skirt falls just below the knee.

Jessica Biel Goes Wedding Dress Shopping Like a Diva -- 'Cause She Can

18.05.12

. The former entails hitting up a few local stores -- probably with some friends or family, trying on a bunch of things, and eventually walking away with something pretty damn close to what you originally envisioned. The latter entails doing what Jessica Biel is currently doing: Traipsing around Paris , assistant and wedding planning book in tow , hitting up all the best boutiques in search of the perfect dress.

That's how it's done if you ask me ... if you're a super-rich celebrity who will be on the cover of every rag mag this side of Texas. If you're not, well, I actually don't even think you need to go with anybody to find your wedding dress.

I know, it's sort of tradition, gathering up some friends and making a day of it -- and surely they want to be a part of the occasion -- but, when you bring a bunch of people with you, you're also bringing a lot of opinions. And a million different opinions aren't necessarily a good thing when you're shopping for a wedding dress.

Fresh, Fast, Fashion

I have hit a rough patch, so now I am trying to cheer myself back up. I have this feeling of dread that I am not going to pass (this section I'm on is worth 20-30%, so it's a big section). BUT - I am going to my parents lake cabin tonight after I finish studying as I have my nephew's first communion tomorrow. I took yesterday off to study, and it honestly did not go very well.

Here Comes the Bride: Katie & Brent

  A full length video is also in the works that she promised to share with me.   I should probably warn her that I have only watched my own wedding video once. Here is a "trailer" of her wedding video, I think it gives a great overall feel of the weekend.
