Diet Your Way Into Your Wedding Dress

Posted on Dec 30, 2008 under Beauty Care, Bridal Gang, Cake/Food, Gown, Health, Honeymoon, Musing | No Comment

I don’t know about other women out there but I became really complacent lately, even to the extent of being lazy, and would eat just about anything and not worry about how much weight I put on or how I looked once the spouse and I became comfortable with each other.  My only consolation is that I don’t like fried food or sweets, so desserts or junk food is pretty much out.  But we all know that a lot of us are so used to fried food, and the greasier the better.

You and I want to fit into our wedding dresses though right?  Yes, you do!  So where does one start? A no food diet? A vegetable diet? Or a fruit diet? Or some even go for the carb diet? Yes, everyone swears up and down and high and low that their diet works.  But a diet that works for someone else may not work for you, so a little research is necessary, that is where Diet Review comes in, it’s the place to go to for honest reviews to help you decide whether Food Network Chef Ellie Krieger’s healthy living, customized plans are suitable for you.  Or maybe exercising the way Denise Austin believes in is your way of fitting into that dream wedding dress of yours.  Don’t forget the Duke Diet that helps you to think positively and encourages only a healthy approach towards weight loss.  Free diet evaluation and information at your finger tips.  So if you wanna get into your wedding dress you now know where to find the right diet.

Looking Your Best On Your Wedding Day

Posted on Dec 20, 2008 under Beauty Care, General Info, Musing, Useful Tips | No Comment

Who doesn’t want to look their best on their wedding day?  After all, you only have 1 wedding in your lifetime (that is what we all hope).  I’m no different from any other woman in the world and even though I’m having my wedding after having a child, it is still one of the most important days in my life.  Besides the photography and the wedding ceremony and the reception that must turn out perfect, the bride (yours truly) must also look vibrant and confident.

What could be better than to check out a Los Angeles non surgical face lifts, right?  I know, I know, the man is gonna say I love you just the way you are, but you have to take charge this moment because this is YOUR day after all.  No one looks at the groom, everyone’s eyes are on the bride. So as a bride-to-be you can imagine the stress I am facing and to be able to deliver, why not choose an affordable and absolutely painless (in my humble opinion) procedure to boost that already worn and stressed out brides confidence. It reduces fine lines and wrinkles and makes you look absolutely radiant for your big day and all those wonderful photos you will want to hand down for the rest of your life.  Take charge of your life, take charge of that special day.

More Bridal Gowns

Look what i found..??  more gowns to choose from..! awesome..!! more choices.. before i finally decide what i want to wear.  Prices are really cool too.  At $500 .. i don’t think anywhere is cheaper than this.  Actually, i find it amazing.. that i have so many choices… back home.. the bridal shops get upset with you .. if you so much as decide to rent instead of buying.  I’m gonna check out Tan Yoong from back home, and compare prices for you to see .. in my next stop.  In the meantime, I also found these awesome wigs for my bachelorette party.

Can you imagine everyone wearing a wig like that for your bachelorette party.. ?? how fun is that..??

Fitting Into Your Wedding Dress

Posted on Dec 08, 2008 under Beauty Care, Bridal Gang, Bridal Store, Musing, Wardrobe | No Comment

The clock is ticking.. and I know i don’t really have much time left before the final fitting for the wedding dress.  Are you in a panic mode like I am now..??   Stressed..?? well.. don’t be .. you already have a lot on your plate.. and your mind.. i know.  The man is a YES man currently.. and everything you ask him.. he just say “Yes, dear” and I know that can be really frustrating.

So yes.. you wanna make sure you can fit into your wedding dress.  Afterall, you want the dress and the wedding to be perfect right..? So now is the time.. where we have to watch what we eat right..?  Yes..!! right now..!! not tomorrow.. nor after this weekend.. but right now.  Well.. don’t starve yourself though… get into a routine.. on a food plan .. that works well with you .. afterall, eating health is always the way to go right.

If you are anything like me, you need a gym to do your workout at least twice a week.  Working those flabby arms.. or flabby thighs.. and keeping fit and working on those stamina is important.  For the wedding takes a few days.. and a whole day of activities.  Ok.. I better start working on getting into my wedding dress now.

What a beautiful dress right..??

Simple yet elegant.

Jewelry or accessories .. as one might call it .. is a must for any wedding.  Be it for the bride or for the bridal gang. Kit and Kabudle in our town has it all.. and a good selection.  I love the prices too.. and if you are doing your prom this year, you may want to check them out yourself.  I think I am gonna get something simple for everyone in my wedding .. the bridal gang.

Evening Gown

Posted on Oct 30, 2008 under Beauty Care, Musing, Wardrobe | No Comment

What a pretty evening gown eh..?  This color is really pretty.. not red or pink.. but light maroon in color.  Plus look at all the sequins, they are really nice .. not too much .. and not too little.  I will try and take a picture of it .. from the front.  It was much too windy yesterday.. i didn’t wanna go out.. and take a picture in the wind. The evening gown is good even for prom dresses.. and not just weddings.  At $500 .. i think it is definitely a lot cheaper than in Asia.

Beach Theme Flower Gal Dress

Posted on Oct 15, 2008 under Beauty Care, Bridal Gang, Musing | No Comment

Since you all know that i have a 4.5 yrs old.. you would also know that she is a very important part of my beach wedding right..??  yes.. besides dressing myself up.. i’ll have to dress her up too.  And this lime green dress caught my attention immediately. So fresh.. and so different .. from the normal flower gal dress. I like it a lot and you can get this one from JC crew at $168 .. which is a bit too  much for my budget.. but maybe i can get a local tailor to sew this for me, not what would be a lot cheaper no..??

Tell me this is not the most exquisite and unique wedding evening gown..!! I so love it..!!  I really think this must be customed made.. and not something one can get off the rack.  I’m kinda worried.. if i try and get this here.. i wonder how much it is gonna cost.  But wait i min.. !! i wanted a beach wedding.. so simplicity is the key .. eh.  But one can always admire others and what they are wearing for their wedding right..?  No harm in that eh.
