THE FASH PACK by Naomi Mdudu Isabeli Fontana And Rohan Marley Set To Wed May 15, 2012 6:00 AM If you were left with question marks after Isabeli Fontana publicly confirmed her relationship with Rohan Marley , you were not alone. Even more peculiar is the fast pace the couple's relationship is going. In a recent interview with Veja magazine, the Brazillian model revealed that the pair are planning a wedding. While they haven't picked a date, they have allegedly decided on the location - Ethiopia. 'Rohan told me we have to return to the roots so the marriage will last forever,' she told the magazine. Fontana's mother on the other hand, isn't too happy with the pace. 'I think everything is happening too fast,' she told the magazine, 'but everything has a different rhythm with Isabeli.' And she's right. If she does go ahead with getting married to the father of Lauren Hill 's five children, he will be her third husband and she will be his second or possibly third.

Monique Lhuillier Marchesa Kenneth Pool Carolina Herrera Info I Love by infoIlove Shopping For Wedding Sandals And Cake Toppers Can Add Some Fun Into The Process Apr 30, 2012 10:21 AM Choosing the right cake toppers is an important part of the wedding. Just as choosing your bridal shoes or wedding sandals you'll be wearing your on your wedding day is important. There are many elegant toppers to choose from, each designed with the traditional bride and groom together. It is an important choice because quite often the topper is saved and displayed for years to come. Elegant toppers can be either expensive or affordable. Using the traditional bride and groom is always a good statement to make. There are many choices and many can be customized to look more like the bride and groom. There are also options for interracial couples. These are truly beautiful. Monogram cake toppers are also becoming very popular. Typically the first initial of the bride and groom will be smaller than the initial for the last name of the couple. These really make great keepsakes for years to come. These are some of the most beautiful toppers if you want your cake to express the joining of two into a couple. This is a great tradition that is becoming a new standard for the traditional couple. When looking at the monograms, they are available in a large variety of styles. Some are very simplistic with just the initial of the last name. These also are available in very ornate styles. Many are adorned with Swarovski Crystals. They will become a loving treasure to keep for a lifetime. Knowing that these toppers are destined to be displayed, a shadow box has been created to protect them after the wedding. For the bride and groom that need to choose from the variety of cake toppers but does not want truly traditional, there are toppers available from the Precious Moments collectibles. Many brides have been collecting these beautiful statues for their entire lifetime and this is truly another collector's item. There are several Precious Moments collectibles available for the bride and groom. A favorite is the groom holding the bride in his arms. There are also many other pieces that can be used as a topper or as accessory pieces to create long lasting memories of the day. If the style is more whimsical than traditional, there are many cake toppers that will make you smile. If you are athletic, choose from the loving couple with soccer balls, footballs, skiing, or a host of other sporting activities. There are toppers with cars filled with the bride and groom leaving. There are styles depicting the bride and groom texting. There is even one for the couch potato husband. If the bride has been looking for her prince charming, that is available, but she is still holding the frog. Many of the whimsical toppers are romantic, just a bit more animated than the traditional couple holding hands. Another cute topper is of the runaway bride. No matter how whimsical you may be, there is a topper that you will fall in love with and want to cherish for many years to come. Chasing Chocolate Dreams by millenniumkid I Do ...

The actress married the Mumford & Sons star on Saturday at a top secret ceremony on a farm in Somerset. Celebrity guests are thought to have included Colin Firth, Sienna Miller and Jake Gyllenhaal, whilst Rankin reportedly captured the moment. Although no photos have emerged from the nuptials, it was initially thought that Carey wore Versace for her big day (which seemed like a strange choice for the actress). Now more reports have confirmed that she actually wore Prada which she often wears on the red carpet (including at the 2010 Oscars ). It's sure to be a custom made design, but below are some bridal-esque dresses by both Miuccia Prada and Versace.

Do you have knowledge about the different types of jewelry and how you can determine high-quality jewelry? This article will help you to approach any jewelry counter with confidence. This article will help you answer some of your jewelry related questions. Take a polishing cloth to each piece of jewelry in your collection. With this method, you can simply shine it up and not deal with the hassle of using cleaners. Simply use the two-sided polishing cloth to polish your jewelry the same way you would polish a glass. One side is designed to polish, and the other is used to make the piece shine. Know what you want to do with jewelry prior to purchasing it. You do not need a huge box of jewelry you will never wear. Think of the outfits that you own, and use those to help you choose your jewelry. A lot of people have begun to pair silver jewelry with yellow gold jewelry. To do this, have one piece that has both metals in it. You might look mismatched if you do not have this element. If you ever shop for choker necklaces in jewelry stores, choosing one that is 16 inches long is best. For a specific length, you can measure the circumference of your neck and subtract an inch. This will give you the best fit. A choker necklace should generally be 16 inches long, so keep this in mind when you are out shopping at the jewelry store. For a specific length, you can measure the circumference of your neck and subtract an inch. This will leave you with the perfect fit. This pertains to saunas that are steam or dry. The jewelry can be damaged from extreme heat or moisture. Give the jewelry a test-run by wearing it for a day. Does it feel comfortable and hang properly? By wearing it yourself, you can also gauge the ruggedness of the piece. To clean a gem or bauble in a setting, use a damp cloth and be very gentle with the piece. Gently dry the piece with a soft cloth. Avoid using steam cleaners or harsh chemicals with fashion or costume jewelry. To preserve the pristine look of your jewelry, apply your make-up first, wait for it to set, then put on your jewelry. The small particles of powdered makeup can easily dull the shine of your jewelry. Especially keep this tip in mind for necklaces or earrings. Necklaces often get tangled, so consider buying stylish robe hooks with embellishments to hang them and keep them untangled. You can hang a whole row of these small pieces of hardware along a wall or the back of a closet door, then hang your necklaces in groups by color or length. Not only is this a decorative touch to your intimate spaces, but it will protect the necklaces from being damaged by excessive contact with other pieces in a small box. If you want the effect of a large, dazzling diamond, an illusion setting is a good choice. In an illusion setting, a mirrored plate is set in the ring underneath the main stone. This will give the diamond a mirror effect on your hand and make the diamond look much larger and more shiny. The only problem with this setting is that they can be difficult to fix. Jewelry is a great gift item for nearly every occasion. Even a small jewelry item can have great meaning to the recipient. Of course, knowing certain things also helps you maintain your own jewelry. Whichever is your case, the advice from this article can enhance your appreciation of jewelry today.

Save the Dates Little Hair Details Ceremony Musts Personalized Reception Details Dress Me Up Dollie by dressmeupdollie Weekly DIY: Sparkly Invitations Apr 17, 2012 5:37 PM I know, I know, I teased a beading project two weeks ago saying it was coming on April 9.  Unfortunately, it's not complete, but these are!  I love using glitter, I hope you do too.  I'm using my save-the-dates for this tutorial, but really, you could use this technique for any kind of fancy invitation you wanted! You will need: Colored cardstock (I chose black) Printed invitations with enough space to glue your cardstock to A fun, pretty, or whatever adjective you prefer, stamp Ink Embossing powder Scissors A blow drier (or an embossing heat tool , if you like to do things properly) Hair spray (or spray sealant , again, if you like to do things properly) A glue stick or two   First, ink your stamp! Then, stamp, of course!  My ink was barely visible against the black cardstock.  I would recommend choosing a color combination for which this is not the case with yours.  The embossing powder will come off, which is fine, but if you want people to understand your design, you probably want them to be able to see what's underneath! Cover the stamp with your embossing powder.  I recommend doing this on top of newspaper or something of that sort. Pour off the excess and you'll have a sparkly design left! Use your preferred heating method to seal the embossing powder to the stamp.  If you're using a blow dryer, be sure to set it to low speed and hold it a reasonable distance away from the card. Holding the card about an arm's length away from you, lightly spray with hairspray to seal.  If you're using a spray adhesive, follow the guidelines on the container. Put glue ALL OVER the back of your cardstock.  And I do mean all over. Line up the edges of your cards and press down. Cut off the excess cardstock, if necessary. If you're using hairspray as a sealant, spray the stamp again. Et voila!  A lovely invitation.  If your edges are curled like the one seen above, simply weight the corners overnight.
