Make Up tip for your wedding day

I always recommend that hair and makeup are completed by a professional. I also always suggest that you not stray from your "natural" look too much.


However, I always suggest a few additional eyelashes. How HOT is this bride?

Christian Louboutin shoes....Must See Oprah Tuesday!

This is not wedding related, but I have two pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes I purchased just for weddings. Besides, who doesn't love these. I have been pretty much Louboutin exclusive since 2006, but wearing since 2005. Here a few pictures of some of my shoes that I could scrounge on the net.

My newest purchase, on sale too!
Pleated bootie





These are about a year old and also purchased the red patent one. Cork Bruges.

The Madison Boot, another new addition, currently on sale at net-a-porter, hurry, Louboutins don't last long once on sale.

the Josephine Shoe, from Fall 06 collection. These are HOT!

These went with my dress I wore to a fancy Parisan wedding this past summer
I also picked up a pink pair while I was there.


My current favorite for dress up, the Crepe Mouche Pump.
THe glitter prive, picked out just for my baby brother's wedding this past November.


I think a colored Christian Louboutin shoes under a wedding dress would be hot. Take a look at this picture. I don't know this bride and I think these are Nine West shoes. Her wedding was photographed by Anne Marie Photography. This is a link to the photographer's blog with pictures from her wedding. She did a great job planning, those green details are incredible.
