filed under: Accessories, Dresses, Fashion
Whitehouse


Check out the latest online bridal boutique from White House|Black Market.

I'm loving this trendy hi-low-hemline ball gown. Plus, they have jewelry and accessories! My favorite is this rose petal clutch. It's the perfect way to add a little romance to a simple, unembellished gown.

What's Hot Now: The Wedding Workout You Wear

filed under: Accessories, Fashion
Shatobu

So, I know these look just like any other control-top, tummy-tucking suit (and they'll do that), but the ShāToBu Shaper is actually more of an excuse to skip the gym.

If you hate running "laps" on a treadmill (like me) then you'll either have to diet (ugh) or find some other way to burn calories. Well, here it is: The built-in resistance bands---yep, the very same ones you'd find in the gym---make your legs and butt work just a bit harder when you're walking home from work or heading to a party.

Gym-goer or not...would you try them?

Gown Preservation: Spot Cleaning for your Wedding Dress

filed under: Fashion

Stainremoval Don't toss your Tide sticks just yet, but I wouldn't recommend cleaning your wedding dress with it either.

What I can suggest---stuffing Madame Paulette's Stain Removal Kit in your day-of emergency bag. I've tested it... it works!

Suit Up: Wedding Fashion for the Groom

filed under: Fashion
Bonobos


Hooray for the launch of Bonobos Wedding Collection. At last, a new way for grooms to show off their personality with more than just a colorful tie or a cool pair of kicks.

Here's the deal, most of Bonobos' pants have a pretty simple, laid-back Nantucket look, but it's the lining that makes them unique. Think about it, lining is an easy way to personalize without totally changing the wardrobe vibe whether your dress code is snazzy tuxes or kick-back khakis.
