YEah finally i get to talk on shoes in weddings...
some brides may not find it as important as their dress.....Who says they are not IMportant???? look how beautiful the louboutin shoes is heheheh picture this...u in ur soft lilac baju sanding...wearing this pair wahhh doesnt that make u feel like the queen of the day....anywayz, this is the one day in ur life u get 2 wear ur dream shoes... ok mayb to the fortunate, u wear those everyday, but im sure u dun plan on wearing bling2 shoes to work & definitely safe to say im sure u wanna save the best bling for ur wedding....

Although the wedding shoe culture havent really hit us malays yet, coz we tend to opt for the matchy matchy songket shoes...or jus crystald wedding shoes (its totally fine if dats wat u really want) , great shoes choices can make a huge difference for us bride, beside's it can be your hantaran from him... so 1 shoe no spending required :P hehehhehe

white, ivory, silver, gold....dats the normal colours bride opt for...well u dun hav 2 be the same as everyone else, so if ur planning on wearing white or ivory dress, (baju nikah/ reception) so y dun u choose some coloured shoe...like this pastel pink badgley mishcka looks so stunning with white baju nikah......

or one of my favourites.....new collection by jimmy choo, so its black, well its good let it stand out, after all....im sure every bride wanna be one of a kind :)

Look of LOVe



Ola...had a very bz week...but a good one...cant wait for the weekend wher i could jus chill & catch up with my gfs...hehehh anywayz, back to me blogging.. today m gonna ramble on abt hairstyles... i cldnt stress more on how important hairstyle for brides...coz the way u wear ur hair can make it or break it... whats the point of spending so much on ur dress when ur hair macam tongkang pecah LOL ( apologies for the weird description) but yeah u get wat i mean rite?? & believe me u will care, especially when u paid a huge amt on photographers & videographers...& in the video or the photo everything looked beautiful except your hair....such a small part in the wedding but a very important one .... so ladies avoid future disappointments & read on..

so you've browse magazines looking for hairstyle..& u have a few types that u like...but hav u ever thought whether that particular style worn by some celeb or model suits u?

...or ok so u leave it to ur stylist coz thats wat u paying them for right??? well wrong...they mayb a stylist but they dun style u full time.... so only u knoe wat looks good on u...even if they style ur hair full time im sure ur gonna opt for a different hairdstyle to look different on ur big day...so my first advice to u is to find out whats your FACE SHAPE...& note that not everyone suits that side swept look that some off u dreamed off ....

beauty tip 1#
understand your face shape so u can use your hair to balance out & play ur best features..grab a mirror, pull back ur hair & ask urself these questions :
1) from hairline to jawline, what is the overall shape
2)is my forehead wider than my jaw line?
3) is my jaw line wider than my forehead?
4)how prominent & rounded are my cheekbones?


Square : you have a wide forehead and a strong jaw line

Incredible hairstyle for u:
like Carmen Electra, you'll look gorgeous with a soft, side swept fringe, or layers around the front and some curl/movement aimed inwards to soften your face

AVOID: Vicious partings and harsh slick styles


Round : Characterized by a round chin and softter "corners" along the jaw line & forehead

Incredible style for u : Add height up top like Charlize Theron, but minimize hair width by keeping it smooth at the sides and around the ear( making the face appear longer)

AVOID: Pulling your hair back in a tight & slick style


Oval: Your overall face shape is, well egg-like. Soft & balance like Eva Longoria, you've got the most versatile shape so you suits alot of different styles

Incredible style for you: your hair gently parted to one side, and back in a soft, low chignon (A roll or knot of hair worn at the back of the head or especially at the nape of the neck)

AVOID: Covering your face with masses of overdone curls. show off your gorgeous shape

Beauty tip 2# : Dont lose your identity, your style shud suit you!
if you dont like or wear overdone updos, tight curls or even long hair, who says you have to for your wedding? never forget your organic style. Make sure you actually like the hairstyle your goin to hav and feel comfortable with it. & that your not doing it because of how the veils sits or because your stylist says extravagant braids are "what everyone's doing"



HEART: Like Jessica Alba, your widest at the forehead , with a slightly pointed chin

Incredible do's for u : A do that creates width around your chin-graduated layers around front are good. as are soft curls

AVOID: Anything straight or flat

So hopefully these helps the bride 2 be's...and jus remember Its a simple rule:

Intricate dress=Simple hair
Simple dress= Intricate hair.

So if your dress is a pearl beaded work of art, a centre part and loose waves could look great. whereas if ur wearing something like a simple slip, an audrey hepburn chignon might be the order of the day. so hav fun researchin for your hair...lagipun kan rambut 2 mahkota wanita hehehhe ....ok till then c u :)
