I almost feel like I hadn’t seen a really beautiful dress before I came across Shady ZeinEldine Spring/ Summer 2012 collection, which is gorgeous, luxurious and sophisticated.


Embellished with tons of beads, crystals, and sequins, adorned with embroidery and flower petals,every piece in his range is unique and elaborate in design. Shady Zeineldine’s dresses are not for daily wear. They are for big and important events only, those which need you to look like a queen.



Models posing in floor-sweeping chic gowns by Shady Zeineldine looks terrific in every piece. The length of dresses allows showing their enviable long legs and a very thin waist.

Angelina Jolie's Wedding Dresses Ideas

As we all know, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finally decided to tie the knot. Jolie debuted an engagement ring, designed by Robert Procop, on Wednesday night at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Hollywood’s royal couple share six kids together and have recently been hinted their children would like them to make their union official.

What I concerned about is how will Jolie wear on the wedding. Let's guess.

Simple like this?

Sexy and daring like this?

Or not a common white color?

What's your opinions?

How to Look Slimmer in Your Wedding Dress

If you’re getting married and going paranoid about your looks, think what you can do to make yourself look thinner on your wedding day.

Before you even choose the wedding dress you want to wear, take some time and study your body type. Try to recognize all the problem areas that need to be worked upon. Leave enough time before the wedding, recognize the problem areas that need to be worked upon. And then go to the gym and let your instructor give you some suggestion about your problem areas. There is no fast way to work out, just keep exercise and lose weight in the right way.

The way you look in your gown depends solely on the way it’s fitted on you, consult a designer regarding your wedding dress. The reason you need an expert to help you out is because this is your wedding, and you need to have the very best and the designer knows more about wedding dress styles than you do. Since the designer will help you with the design, you have to only find a good seamstress now. Choosing the right one can make a whole lot of a difference. A good seamstress will do justice to the gown for your body.

You can find kinds of dress styles have many nice details, such as ruffles or petals created in the dress which is more effective. It makes you look thin and it won’t add to lines on your waist. Another tip you need to remember is that white isn’t a color that would make you look slimmer, like how black does. White will enhance your figure even more. For this very reason, avoid covering your problem areas with fabric.If you plan to wear a puffed up skirt to hide those hips, they are only going to look more prominent. The tip is to avoid extra fabric on extra fat. If you have a fatter waist and small hips, just reverse the tip. If you are fatter on the hips, go for a A-line skirt for the bottom of your wedding dress. This way, your figure will get a slimming down effect. If you plan to wear a puffed up skirt to hide those hips, they are only going to look more prominent.

Wedding Diet

For the average women, depending upon whether she lives on the coasts, in the south or the mid west, there are varying degrees of the obsession with obesity and thinness. But no matter how much women may deceive others that they are fine with 20-30 pounds of extra weight on their bodies (over the BMI weight calculator's Normal range) most feel uncomfortable about it and will attempt to diet and exercise. This is especially true if they are going to a big event like a wedding.

The Times' piece mentions other controversial but common quick-fix weight loss methods, such as fad diets, juice cleanses, extreme professional trainers or HCG-hormone injections. But the one that raised the most eyebrows around the web was the so-called "K-E diet", that's given by Dr. Oliver R. Di Pietro in his clinic in Bay Harbor Islands, Fla.

Is his method the latest extreme diet fad to sweep the country?

"This is the first time I've actually heard of that," Dr. Michael Aziz, an internist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City and author of "The Perfect 10 Diet," told HealthPop. "As far as I know not a lot of folks out here (West Coast) are doing it but I am sure some entrepreneur doc will start," Dr. Ken Fujioka, director of the Scripps Clinic Center for Weight Management, told HealthPop in an email. "It just seems odd that a patient would want a feeding tube sticking out of their nose and to just be fed that way." Aziz agrees with that sentiment, and thinks the technique is "very dangerous" and can perforate the patient internally and cause infections. He said the tube is typically placed in unconscious patients who can't feed themselves.

"It's just a very crazy way to lose weight," Aziz said.

Dr. Louis Aronne, director of the Comprehensive Weight Control Program at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York City, added to the New York Times, "Any extreme low-calorie diet is associated with side effects, kidney stones, dehydration, headaches, and if you lose muscle mass and water, what's the point of that?" Then what's the healthiest way for an upcoming bride to lose weight? Aziz says to plan ahead and eat a balanced diet and exercise. He said people should lose no more than 2 pounds a week to ensure healthy dieting habits, and when it comes to crash diets, a bride-to-be might wind up in an emergency room on her wedding day.

Umbrellas and Parasols -- Wedding Ideas

I am so excited that umbrellas and parasols have made a comeback in the wedding world. Using them as a fun feature of your wedding means having to go to very little more effort than that; since they are quirky, pretty and sure to make an impact.
Umbrellas and parasols are practical too, since they can keep drizzle or sunshine from getting in the way of your romantic day. If you anticipate harsh sunlight or a light rain, ensure that each of your wedding guests receives their own. This will keep them comfortable throughout your outdoor ceremony, and will make the perfect guest favour.

Alan Ray Bridal Closes

Dozens of customers of Alan Ray Bridal in northwest Columbus expressed their concerns that their dresses were nowhere to be found after the business suddenly shut down.
Kelly Adamson said she ordered her wedding dress and eight bridal party dresses for her August wedding back in November. The total cost was around $3,000, 10TV's Kevin Landers reported. Adamson said when Alan Ray Bridal shut its doors last week, she didn't know where her dresses were and was not given any notice they were going out of business. "I think a little bit of honesty on his part would have been nice," Adamson said.
Customer Sara Lowe said that she agreed."When I first heard about it, I was just shocked, like I didn't believe that it could have happened," Lowe said. 10TV News tried to contact the shop's owner, Alan Ray Church, but no one answered the door at his Delaware home on Sunday.
"Now we are trying to do the best we can for all the customers that they did have that they won't be able to complete for, to make sure their big day isn't ruined," the shop's attorney, Chris Gallutia said Wednesday.
