<span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; font-family: inherit; line-height: 24px;">Spring is here and Summer is in the not so distant future, which means it is wedding season! So what do you WEAR to a wedding? Well, that all depends on the <i>style</i> of the wedding. Don't worry, we've got you covered for all!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px;">The latest trends for Spring include bright, pastel colors, bold patterns, and unique fabrics. You can incorporate these styles into your wedding attire by shopping at your favorite stores and having fun with your look!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; font-family: inherit; line-height: 24px;">Whether you want a floral print, design or just a simple little black dress, Lauren Conrad, Forever 21, LuLus and LA Posh Style have a great deal to chose from! Check out my favorites below.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px;">Things to remember...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span>
</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1. <strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Let the bride wear white. </strong><span style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">DO NOT even think about creams or off-whites. It is HER day. </span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2.<strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Stay away from red.</strong> You don't want to steal the attention away from the bride by donning a bright, bold color.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3.<strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> Don’t</strong><strong style="border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> wear black.</strong> Black is a negative color (ie: funerals) and the wait staff and event planner will be wearing black. Leave them to that. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4. <b>Know the wedding color.</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Don't get mistaken for part of the bridal party by wearing the same color as the wedding.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1f2223; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">DO wear the following: Belts. Stripes. Multicolor. Floral. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Supernatural thriller? I don't know if that's the category I'd put "MAMA" under. Certainly it had its freaky moments but it was more of a </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">psychological film </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">that made you think and pulled at your heart strings. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">The previews did not do this movie justice. WIth just a camera following around a girl hiding in the corners of a hallway chanting "mama", you think it's just another horror film that you can add to the list of many. But this is not the case. "MAMA"</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"> is an entirely different type of scary movie that has a decent backstory that actually makes some sort of sense (as much as these films can) .</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">The film starts off in front of a house with a car radio blaring the weather and a door left open with no one in it. Then a distraught husband is seen fleeing from the house with his two adorable children, telling them "mama doesn't feel well. We have to go!" </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Five years later, after spending those years looking for them, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Nikolaj Coster-Waldau's (Game of Thrones) character Lucas (their uncle) finds them in an abandoned cabin, disheveled, living off cherries, taken care of by a entity they refer to as 'mama.' But as in every scary movie, 'mama' follows them to their new house, causing distress to Lucas and his rocker girlfriend </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Annabel (</span>Jessica Chastain). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I spent the entire time watching the movie wondering WHAT 'mama's motivate was to take care of these two girls and why she protected them so much. Thankfully this question was answered towards the end of the movie, but like most scary movies, the answer to what happened to the girls' mother, was not. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But once the answers are revealed and you think that all is resolved, the story lingers for another 20 minutes, as if the writers struggled with whether to kill off its main characters or keep them alive. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As far as acting, Jessica Chastain owns this movie. The unreconizable "Zero Dark Thirty" actress takes on a whole new role in this horror film but it's not the supernatural "mama" whom takes over her pail complection, but a rockstar with tattoos up and down her arm and a short, black wig. With more serious roles such as in "The Help", one wouldn't think this would be Chastain's ideal role, but she played it very well. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Along side Chastain's acting, the revealing of 'mama' helped to set the film apart from its scary movie counterparts. Most scary movies decide not to reveal the supernatural 'thing' until the end, and some, not at all. But 10 minutes in and the audience got to see what 'mama' might look like. As the film went on, more and more of her was revealed until eventually her entire self. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From moths showing up throughout the house to a gooey substance showing up on walls and hair running across hardwood floors, Mama seems to take on a life of her own, keeping the audience engaged into what could this mysterious creature actually be. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7-HGT2gsoPM6qBr7pSRgvLSweDHD3UpEkwczT34xIlm99LYF2Bf2hP7VEeIbkQ9RRWtwadUrZIFTvHTXXmEXml5iCTVWGxuW1WNZp6P71zkuuveHjC0ZTxjQkjqCHF_DXZ-htGurutehb/s1600/18MAMA1_SPAN-articleLarge.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7-HGT2gsoPM6qBr7pSRgvLSweDHD3UpEkwczT34xIlm99LYF2Bf2hP7VEeIbkQ9RRWtwadUrZIFTvHTXXmEXml5iCTVWGxuW1WNZp6P71zkuuveHjC0ZTxjQkjqCHF_DXZ-htGurutehb/s400/18MAMA1_SPAN-articleLarge.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also making the film unique was the backstory. Many scary films don't bother to reveal much of a plot, and some, are just repeats. "MAMA" had an interesting and different story that had not been told before; one that kept the audience on it's toes, wondering what would happen next.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For those wanting more from a scary movie, this is a thriller that will having you playing mystery alongside it's characters. </span><br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Saturday Night Live made it's second debut back after a hiatus since December 16 on Saturday with Maroon 5's front man Adam Levine hosting.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The show opened with <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 23px;">Jay Pharoah</span> as President Obama after his inauguration and a visit from Dr Martin Luther King, played by Kenan Thompson. While the president is honored to talk with the ghost about some serious topics, Dr King is more concerned with Beyonce at the inauguration.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When talking about Beyonce and her looks, Dr King said, "I felt like I was having one of my dreams." </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Levine talked about acting in his opening monologue verses singing with Maroon 5. Andy Samberg, Cameron Diaz (making fun of Christina Aguilera), and Jerry Seinfeld joined the singer/actor on stage as judges like on The Voice to "coach" Levine in being a better actor. Both encouraged him to take his shirt off while Seinfeld encouraged his jewish-ness.<br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">During Weekend Update, which is still one of the strongest sketches on SNL, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Nasim Pedrad returned as </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Arianna Huffington to talk to Seth Myers about Hilary Clinton's current position in politics. The rest was pretty boring since infamous Stefon, played by </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Bill Hader, wasn't there to </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">bring in extra laughs. </span><br /><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Trouble came in but provided for much comedic relief with a sketch of Maroon 5 verses Train (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">Taran Killam)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, with Jason Mraz (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Jason Sudeikis) </span>and John Mayer (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 16px;">Bill Hader)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">joining in to "fight" (smack talk and dancing) Levine. Levine's acting was not up to par in this scene, but it could be due to him having to play himself. His lines were purely read off the cue cards, making the jokes not funny.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Samberg joined Levine again in a <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">The Lonely Island </span>digital short in which they sang about YOLO (you only live once), joined by musical guest <span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;">Kendrick Lamar. It wasn't funny compared to the original installments from The Long Island but was a nice break in comedy. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What could have been the best sketch of the night in the height of Manti Te'o's online dating scandal, was Catfish, where Levine makes fun of Nev (and repeating his name as many times as he can) and the now infamous show. But with Levine again focusing all his attention on the cue cards (that could be seen reflected in the windows of the set) and no funny punch lines or creativity, this sketch was merely bland.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the end, Adam Levine should stick to singing. </span><br />

A brother and sister get lost in the woods, they come across a house made entirely of candy, which is owned by a witch who tries to eat them for dinner. Well, there is more to it than that. The German </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-origin: initial;">Brothers Grimm</span> tale is much more gruesome than the version we have grown up with. Hansel and Gretel are children of a poor woodcutter but their father and stepmother cannot afford to feed themselves and their children so they take them deep into the forest and leave them there to fend for themselves. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">In </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><i>Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters </i>the story goes that the mother was a white witch and the towns people were to come after Gretel for her heart so their parents took them in the woods to save them and both the mother and father were killed. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">The movie plays out like a scary movie with little plot and lots of action. Hansel (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Jeremy Renner) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">and Gretel (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Gemma Arterton) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">have become witch hunter's in their town and are trying to find missing children of the townspeople. Unknown to them, they have become the hunted, as a witch from their past is out to kill them. For fans looking for that something more, this will surely dissapoint. The movie showcases the siblings finding witches and killing them, which is then repeated throughout the entire 80 minutes.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">It has its moments-including Hansel revealing that he has diabetes due to the candy he indulged as a child, but the overall film stands thin. With not much of a story to go off on from the original, it seems director </span>Tommy Wirkola decided to thrown in lots of action (and Jeremy Renner, of course) to make it look good.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">The best part of the film is the witch (</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">Famke Janssen)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">, of course, who looks like Billy The Saw Puppet. Much like Disney's witches, she is pure evil and it comes across the screen perfectly. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">If you want a movie with lots of action but the actors don't have much to say, then this is one for you.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">Fairy tale remakes are hit or miss. Disney knows this from experience, as 2003's remake of <i>Peter Pan </i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">made less than $50 million domestically and $122 million worldwide, failing to break even with its </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 20px;">$140 million budget.

New MeIt's a new year so I've started doing some things differently...<br />
<br />
<b>My face</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I have started the OCM (Oil Cleansing Method) using extra virgin olive oil and tea tree oil. You are supposed to also use castor oil, but I have to order some. Recipe calls for 4oz castor oil, 4oz extra virgin olive oil, 2-3 drops tee tree oil. Apply on a dirty face (with make-up) nightly only. Run warm water underneath a wash cloth then apply the oil to your face in a circular motion. Apply the wash cloth over your face for a min or 2 (or until it cools) and wipe off all extra oil and make-up with the wash cloth.<br />
<br />
I only started this last night but noticed a difference when I went to bed and when I woke up this morning. My face seemed to have already improved a little.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>My body</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
I read somewhere that to clear up your back, you should wash your body AFTER you condition your hair. I put my hair up in a bun after conditioning it and wash my body as I usually would and keep my hair up until I get out of the shower.<br />
<br />
I started taking Fish Oil. It's not only supposed to clear up your skin but it helps to stop heart disease.<br />
I take 2 a day with a meal and water.<br />
<br />
I switched to using baby oil to shave in December, but have continued to do so in 2013. Instead of spending $2-$3 on shaving gel that only lasts a few uses, I spend $1-$2 on baby oil, which lasts much longer. Not only does the baby oil give me a closer shave, but my legs feel smoother and less hairy. As I've grown older, I've had to start shaving more often because my hair grows faster, but with baby oil I get an overall better shave. It also helps to lengthen the life of my razor.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
What are YOU changing in 2013???<br />

Dermstore Lip Quench<span style="text-align: start;">- I have always used regular chapped stick when it came to dry lips, but today I found this little gem. It sounds too good to be true but I am excited to try it. My favorite thing about it that it not only acts as a chapped stick but that it adds a hint of color to your lips as well. No need for lip gloss.</span></div>

Between the yellows, blues and greens, everyone looked elegant.<br />
<br />
The most notable fashion statements of the night were the one-shouldered gowns. Hayden-Panettiere in Marchesa, Kelly Osborne in <span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 2px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 2px; border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; line-height: 16px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Zac Posen</span></span>, and Jessica Pare in Jason Wu all rocked the red carpet in this style.<br />

Would you don a one-shoulder bridal gown for your wedding day?<br />
<br />
As far as bridesmaid inspiration, sticking to the classics like these three did at the Emmys, is the way to go. Maria Menounos, Hilaria Thomas and Sarah Hyland were all gorgeous in their detailed ruffled gowns. Our personal favorite is Hilaria Thomas.<br />

<i>Safety pins</i>, it seems, couldn't be more valuable when it comes to curing wedding-day beauty emergencies big and small. Here's one more reason why you may want to stick more than one in your clutch: zipper malfunctions. "Just before she walked down the aisle," Jessica Harris recalls, "a dainty little grandmother approached me and motioned to the back of her dress where the full length zipper was broken from neck to tailbone! We delayed the beginning of the ceremony so I could use large safety pins to secure her dress from the inside. No one could see the safety pins, and she walked down the aisle without giving the other guests a show."</div>

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">What do I do if I break the heel on my shoe?</span></b></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Your walk down the aisle should be dramatic, but not because the heel of your shoe suddenly snaps. "Make sure your shoes are not poorly made," urges <em>Brides</em> fashion director Rachel Leonard. "Practice walking in them a few days before the wedding to scuff up the soles a bit." This will help to prevent any slips or falls. If you do break a heel, all hope is not lost."Bring a <i>hot glue gun</i>," suggests Heather Minicucci, "and then you can glue the heel back together."</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">"Soak your hand in <i>ice water</i> to get some swelling down," says Angel Swanson, "then use any <i>slippery goo</i> to wiggle the ring off. Anything from butter to oil to hair conditioner to lotion can be used. Wiggle and turn slowly and gently avoid unnecessary manipulation, which may lead to additional swelling."</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">There IS indeed an art to wearing a veil. Some brides like wearing theres forward, some like wearing it all the way in the back. So which bride will you be? Find out by reading these steps on how to wear a veil, brought to you by <a href="http://www.weddingmagazine.co.uk/beauty-article-How%20to...%20wear%20a%20veil.html">Wedding Magazine</a>. </span><br />

Veils worn behind a headband or tiara look best when hair is worn down and lightly curled.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">Wearing a veil <i>at the crown</i> looks great if you have a discreet up-do or if you’re going for a half-up half-down effect. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">Attaching the veil to the crown area is also a good way to achieve height if you’re </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">opting for a down-do. </span><br />

If you don’t want to opt for a </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">hairpiece, wearing a tiara and attaching the veil behind it will give you a point of attachment. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">DO: Consider your wedding location when opting for a veil</strong></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">Really think about how you wear your veil if you are getting married somewhere unshielded from the wind, such as a country estate or park. You will be spending a lot of time outside in the grounds to get the perfect shots, and if it’s a windy day your veil could start blowing around and lifting up, which won’t make for the best photos.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">DO: Have a practice run on your hair with your veil secured in place</strong></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">When you’re having your hair trial, don’t forget to take your veil along with you. Also, someone, be it your mother or bridesmaid, should be on hand to help attach and take off the veil. This way they will understand how the veil is positioned, and know how to manoeuvre it once you’re ready to remove it.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"><strong style="font-style: normal; font-weight: bold;">And finally... DON'T</strong></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 16px; word-spacing: 1px;">go for a long veil if you have short hair, or if you intend to wear an understated dress.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6d6d6d; font-family: inherit;">When it comes to wedding hair, the simpler the better. The less time it will take to do hair for not only the bride but her bridal party, will make it easier on everyone. Luckily, there is a very cute DIY hair do featuring flower wrapping. This comes from Lauren Conrad's <a href="http://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/06/diy-flower-wrapping-for-hair/">The Beauty Department</a>. Below is the step-by-step: </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6d6d6d; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #6d6d6d; font-family: inherit; font-size: x-small;"> </span></div>
<div style="color: #6d6d6d; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">TOOLS: Floral tape (can be purchased at craft stores, some flower shops or google it and buy it online), beading wire or floral wire, scissors and whatever type of flower you want. <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-decoration: underline;"><strong style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Note</strong></span>: use an open flat flower so it sits nicely against the head. My favorites are gardenias, fully bloomed and opened roses, lisianthus, orchids, and here I used ranunculus.</span></div>
<ol style="color: #6d6d6d; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Push your thin wire through the stem, close to the base of the flower. If the stem is stiff, try poking a needle through first.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Drag the wire through and cut it. The 2 sides of wire should be even. Make the wire is an inch or 2 longer than the stem so you’ll have room to curl the bottom up like you see in picture # 7.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Twist each wire around the stem a couple times, and then twist them around each. This will make the wire twice as strong.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Grab your floral tape and start wrapping the stem from the base of the flower.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Keep wrapping until you get all the way to the bottom.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Snip the tape right where you feel the wire ends.</span></li>
<li style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">Now roll the bottom back up to make a loop. U</span>se that loop to secure the flower with a bobby pin. This makes the flower more sturdy and it stays alive longer because you’re not crushing the stem. (And always try to avoid spraying hairspray on the petals of your hair flower!) </li>
</ol>

<i>boyfriend blazer- </i>I LOVE LOVE blazers. Wear them with a skirt for a date, wear them with jeans on the weekend, or with slacks for work. The blazer just takes your outfit to the next level by dressing it up but not OVERDRESSING. It is a great look that you must have in your closet for year round.<br />

<i>boyfriend cardigan- </i>These cardigans are SO cute and a necessity to your fall closet! I personally love the striped look because it adds a subtle pop of color and style. It can be warn with a long sleeve for a rainy day or over a tank top during a cool morning.<br />

<i>scarf-</i> Most people think of scarves as a winter accessory but Fall is full of breezes, wind and sometimes rain, so they are a great add on to your Fall closet. My favorites are cashmere scarves as they are not only soft, but keep you EXTREMELY warm. Now this might not be ideal for Fall, but it's certainly an option for those cold and windy (or rainy) days.<br />

<i>polka dots</i>- I am not one for polka dots usually, but I think it adds a pop of color to your wardrobe, if done correctly. Just having one blouse (my personal favorite is a dark blue with white dots) mixed with a sweater or great pair of jeans can add some much needed sophistication to your Fall style. Whether it's for a job interview or a drinks with the girls, a polka dot blouse does just the trick for dressing up a simple outfit.<br />

1. Tan at Least Two Days in Advance</h2>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; line-height: 18px;">If you're going to get a fake tan before the big day, spray-tan at least two days prior to your wedding, makeup artist Alexandra Andrade advises. "It'll darken on the second day, and by the third day, it'll have settled and be perfect."</span></h2>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">2. Consider Climate Before Applying Makeup</span></h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">Especially for brides getting married in warmer climates, consider using as many oil-free products as possible — primer, moisturizer, foundation, etc. — and keeping oil-free blotting sheets on hand.</span></div>
</div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span><br /></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
3. Play Up Your Makeup for Photos</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Another general rule for brides," Alexandra says: "The camera will blow you out in photos. Put on a little more makeup than you would apply normally, more than you think you need, since the camera and lights will tone down your makeup." Don't drastically change your look from your every day look because you don't want to look abnormal, but just add to what you usually wear. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
If you're doing your own makeup: Practice and take pictures before the big day. Start with less, because it's easier to add more if you need it than having to remove excess makeup, which can get messy.</div>
</div>
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
4. Use a Primer</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Especially with brides," Alexandra says, "you want to make sure you cleanse and really moisturize the skin before you start applying your makeup. Then, after you moisturize and before you put on your foundation, there's a really important step — primer. It'll make your makeup go on smoother and last a lot longer. You're going to have a long day ahead of you, and you want your makeup to last you all day and all night."</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: italic; line-height: normal;">5. Apply Your Foundation with a Sponge or Brush</span></div>
</div>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Certain foundations work better with a sponge or brush," Alexandra says, "but definitely use either one or the other — <em>never</em> your fingers. The less you can touch your face, the better." (Bacteria, dirt, etc., can be left behind.) Your fingers can also leave behind fingerprints, "so the look isn't as smooth and finished-looking." If you use a sponge, apply foundation by stippling the sponge, not swiping it across the skin. This gives your foundation a more natural look, and blends it more evenly into the skin.</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
6. Put on Concealer After Your Foundation</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Your moisturizer, primer, and foundation are already going to even out skin and cover imperfections," Alexandra says, "so doing it before your foundation could leave you looking cakey with too much product." She also notes that it's important to use a different kind of concealer for your eyes than for your face. "It should be something very creamy and emollient — not necessarily oil-free, like you'll use on your face — so it doesn't get dry and cakey throughout the day," she says. "You also want to use something peach-based so it contrasts the the blue and purple tones of your eyelid."</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
7. Use Different Concealers</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Your concealer choice depends on what you're covering. "If it's a blemish, red spot, or broken capillaries, use an oil-free, pigmented, thicker concealer with hints of yellow," Alexandra says. "For under your eyes, you want to use something with a little more peach in it to cover and contrast the blues and purples. It should be something emollient and creamy because there are no oil glands there. Sometimes you'll see women with dry, cakey concealer under eyes; their concealer is either oil-free or they have too much on." </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Make sure to use a brush to apply your concealer so you can really pinpoint the spot. Press gently and melt it into skin. Start thin — you can always add more.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: italic; line-height: normal;">8. Primer for Eye Shadow</span></div>
</div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Using an eye shadow primer ensures smudge-free makeup, a must when you're wearing all white.</div>
</div>
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 18px; font-style: italic;">9. For a Natural Makeup Look, Try a Cream Blush</span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: medium;"><i><br /></i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
It goes on sheer and looks healthy and fresh. If you want more staying power, try layering a powder blush on top of it.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
10. You Can Learn Where to Place Your Blush Just by Smiling!</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
When you smile, the apple of your cheek pops out. Apply your blush there and blend into your temple — this will make it look like you're naturally flushing. Don't go too over the top otherwise you will look like a clown. </div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
11. An Eyebrow Pencil Is a Must-Have</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Filling in your eyebrows may not be a daily occurance in your makeup routune, but for your big day, you will want to! Filling them in "really frames your eye and finishes the whole picture", says Alexandra. Not filling them in will make them look absent in pictures and no bride wants that! A tip for finding the right color for your eyebrow pencil: Always go a shade or two lighter than your own natural eyebrow color.</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
12. Replace Pencil Eye Liner with Cake Liner</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Cake liner is a great product," Alexandra says. "Once you apply it, it lasts all day line — seriously, it really won't budge! A pencil can sometimes disappear — it has an oily, wax-y texture that can migrate down your skin." If you do decide to use a pencil, Alexandra suggests setting it with some powder so it'll stay longer.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Regardless of which type of eyeliner you use, you'll want to make your lashes look thicker by filling in the roots of the lashes. "This is a place where many women don't traditionally line," Alexandra says, "but you'll see that it makes the eye pop and the lash line look a lot more plush." Apply by pressing in between the lash roots.</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
13. Use Eye-Enhancing Makeup Techniques</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Focus darker eye shadow on the outside of eyes, moving lighter and brighter as you work in, "so you don't close off the eyes," Alexandra says. "You want them to look big, bright, and beautiful." If you accidentally mess up your make-up, simply take a Q-tip with make-up remover or some eye creme to remove the makeup. You don't want to risk ruining your foundation, so stay away from using wipes or tissue.</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
14. Get Wide-Awake Eyes in Seconds</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Always use a shimmer powder in the inner corners of your eyes before taking any photos," Alexandra says. This will give you a wide awake look, despite your lack of sleep. Use a brush with a smaller head to get right into the inner corners of the eyes.</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
15. Use Fake Lashes</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"I recommend using false eyelashes for all brides or any special occasion where you'll be in pictures," Alexandra says. "They make your eyes look big and captivating." If you're going for a full-on sexy or glamorous look, use a full lash strip. However, for a more subtle look, use individual lashes. "Either way," she says, "always curl your lashes and do a coat of mascara first — <em>then</em> apply the fake lashes. After that, wait until the glue dries, use your eyelash curler again, and, finally, apply another coat of mascara."</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<strong>Tip:</strong> Cut and measure false eyelashes before you apply them. You don't want them to extend past your natural lash line. For a great tutorial on how to apply false lashes, check out this post: <a href="http://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/07/quick-tips-for-lash-strips/">http://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/07/quick-tips-for-lash-strips/</a></div>

16. Waterproof Makeup Is a Must</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"If you're worried you're going to cry on your wedding day," Alexandra suggests using "a great product by Benefit called She Laq that will seal everything." Take the She Laq (it comes with four different brushes for easy application) and put it all over your lid to seal in shadow and liner so it won't run when you cry.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
And don't forget waterproof mascara! "Even if you don't like waterproof," she says, "use it as an extra coat over your other mascara. And, if you're wearing false lashes, use a glue that's waterproof, too."</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
17. Do Some Prep Work — on Your Lips</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Put lip balm on your lips before gloss or lipstick so they're not dry and flaky. For a wonderful tutorial on how to remove cracked lips before applying lipstick, check out this post: <a href="http://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/06/diy-lip-smoothie/">http://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/06/diy-lip-smoothie/</a>. Then, fill in your entire lip with a lip pencil, which will hold the color longer. "For brides who just want to wear a gloss, prepare for it to fade," Alexandra says. "However, a lip pencil will help you keep some of that color longer."</div>
</div>
<h2 class="slideTitle" style="color: #666666; font: italic normal normal 18px/normal Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; margin-bottom: 30px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
18. Carry a Few Touch-Up Products in Your Makeup Bag</h2>
<div class="imageContent" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18px; margin-right: 20px;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
"Carry at least your lip color," Alexandra says, "as that's what'll wear out the fastest and need to be touched up the most." If you use good quality face and eye primers, everything else should stay in place.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
She also advises keeping some oil blotting sheets on hand. "If you don't want to keep piling on powder throughout the day, make sure you also have some oil-absorbing sheets so you’re not just adding on more and more makeup. You can switch on and off — an application of powder, then the oil-absorbing sheets, and so on."</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
Q-tips are another great item to carry around with you. Makeup can collect in the inner corners of your eyes, and you can use the q-tips to clean them out.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 15px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

So here is a compiled list of items to bring WITH you to make your experience a breeze.<br />

1. <b style="font-style: italic;">Tape measure. </b>This is something you should always have with you when out running wedding-related errands. For your hair trial, for example, you may want to know how far down your dress starts from your shoulders/neck. If you’ve chosen a short dress, you might also want to note where the dress ends. It also will come in handy when buying heels if you have not done so. You never know what type of measurements you’ll need, so bring a tape measure and jot down a few specifics. Keep it in your wallet so it’s always with you.<br />
<br />
2. <i><b>Wedding shoes</b></i>. For those brides wearing heels, especially ones that will be adding extra height, you want to ensure that your dress is hemmed to the correct measurements with you IN your shoes. If you have yet to buy your shoes, bring one of your favorite pairs or heels with the size heel you'll be wearing on your big day.<br />
<br />
3. <b><i>Jewelry</i></b>. You will want to bring your jewelry with you as you try on dresses because you will want to see how they look with the jewelry you've selected. If your dress is low cut or strapless, this might affect how long (or short) your necklace needs to be.<br />
<br />
4.<i style="font-weight: bold;"> Inspiration. </i>Whether it's actual photos of dresses that you'd like to try on, or just styles that you like, make sure to bring some sort of reference. This makes it SO much easier for the sales ladies to pull dresses than to have to pull every dress in the store. Not only will you get out of their faster, it'll make your life easier to try on less dresses but bringing specific styles that you like.<br />
<br />
5. <b><i>Camera</i></b>. You won't be able to take pictures of the gowns that you actually try on, but once you have paid for the one that you are going to wear down the aisle, you can take photos so that you can reference back to it when shopping for accessories.<br />
<br />
6. <b><i>Tissues</i></b>- Your mom (and maybe even yourself) is sure to break out into tears, so you will want to bring a pack of tissues with you so that you have them on hand. Some dress shops have them, but just to be on the safe side, bring your own.<br />
<br />
Lastly-HAVE FUN!!!! This is (hopefully) going to be a ONE time experience, so you will want to remember it all and not stress so much.<br />
