When it comes to wedding shoes, there are a million issues.

The bride wants her shoes to be as special as the rest of her ensemble. The bridesmaids' shoes need to go with their gowns, but not every woman is comfortable in the same style shoe, presenting a huge challenge.

Oh, and now that shorter dresses are in style, even more challenging!

Nina has a solution -- Design Your Own shoes. You get to choose from three styles: "Palada," "Electra" or "Culver," two or three heel heights (depending on style) and a wide range of colors. You can even select different colors for the heel, upper and bow or toe detail.

Women everywhere dream of their big day: the tiered cake, the floral arrangements, the first dance, and, of course, the Vera Wang dress. I know, I wore one and had a fairy-tale wedding.

Her gowns and ready-to-wear are the epitome of elegance. As well they should be (and I don't mean because of the prices): Wang cut her couture teeth under the icy glare of Anna Wintour as a Senior Fashion Editor at Vogue -- there was (size) zero room for error.

After departing the fashion bible -- rumor has it she was passed over for the editor-in-chief job in favor of Wintour -- Wang spent two years working for Ralph Lauren, then set out on her own.

Lacy ass jeans

Filed under: Holiday Style, Clothing

This position isn't uncomfortable at all!Ah, the fall wedding season. If you're getting married, you probably have a ton of wedding-related events to attend. As it gets a little chilly, you kinda start to wish you could just wear your blue jeans.

Enter a totally ridiculous solution: Wedding Belle Blues. Here you can find several different styles of jeans adorned with lace and ribbons to make them...bridely.

This may seem to be a crime against denim, but weddings are somewhat costume-y events. You might never, never wear those jeans again (oh god please don't), but they are, in fact, appropriate just this once.

So, have a look at the gallery below with a sense of drama and humor, and enjoy the lacy ass jeans.

Kate Moss says "I do," for Agent Provocateur

Filed under: Celebrities with Style


Nothing says virginal bride like a coke snorting, absent mother figure, nearly anorexic model. Which means it makes perfect sense that Kate Moss is the new face of Agent Provocateur's bridal line. We don't think innocent is the look they're going for.

Last year Kate starred in series of videos for the company that were so incredibly hot they crashed the website when they first went live. We're impressed.
