Maria Dueñas Jacobs Roman Wedding

Maria Dueñas Jacobs
Maria Dueñas Jacobs is the accessories editor at Glamour Magazine. She was featured on Into the Gloss this week and I was immediately drawn to her natural look and easy beauty routine. A quick google took me to her wedding which was featured on Martha Stewart’s website. So, duh, I had to share.

Wedding Hair

My wedding day approaches. What to do with a mass of hair on the big day? I’ve had long hair forever and I want to make good use of it for my wedding. What do you like?

The Other Sister

Pippa Middleton Pippa Middleton attends the wedding of Katie Percy to Patrick Valentine at St Michael's Church in Alnwick, Northumberland on February 26, 2011 in Alnwick, England. A friend of Prince William and Kate Middleton Lady Katie Percy, 28 who is the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Northumberland, will marry Patrick Valentine, 30, before a party at the family home Alnwick Castle.

Everyone now knows who she is – Pippa. Before the coming out party for her derriere, (otherwise known as the royal wedding) she was the sister of Prince William’s girlfriend, a chic British socialite. Now she is a whirlwind, worldwide phenomenon. She’s constantly watched and reported on, her fashion recreated and sought after, her figure envied. She seems to be taking it all in stride. So, what is it about Pippa? She’s been called the most eligible girl in England. Her booty has a Facebook fan club and in my opinion, she is quite cute. What do you think?

Rehearsal Dinner Dress?

Too Much for a Rehearsal Dinner Dress?

I mean, honestly…

Sadie Dress by Jones and Jon**

I think, as long as it’s not sheer and there is double sided tape involved it could work. But I could be way off.

Either of these would  probably be safer…

The Second Dress

Oh Princess Kate. We already discussed how lovely she looked. I really adore her second dress but I am D-Y-I-N-G to see it without the bolero, aren’t you?
