Casual Wedding Dresses

Casual Wedding Dresses

Wedding is a very special affair and even in few years ago, people used to plan and prepare its dresses taking months together. Those were the days when wearing formal traditional wedding dresses was almost mandatory. But, with change in lifestyle and people's attitude towards social ethos, formal bridal dresses are gradually receding giving way to the next generation casual wedding dresses.

Shifting of marriage venues from churchyards to backyards has also contributed greatly in encouraging using casual wedding dresses. If you are planning to solemnize your much awaited marriage ceremony secretly in an isolated island, will you bother to go for the minute details of a formal nuptial? Collecting short informal dresses will certainly be your first preference then. Such informal dresses have their inherent advantages over their counterparts. Opportunity of creating one's own personalized wedding dresses also exists with the casual wedding attires. Seeing great potential, designers and manufacturers are also now days busy developing exotic and relaxing casual marriage dresses.

Depending upon the place of celebration, nature and design of your casual wedding dresses should be decided. Marriage at one's own backyard with complete family gathering requires sober and decent dresses. If it is a hot summer evening, you must not choose something that may help you sweat further. A nice designer strapless may fulfill your requirement. You may also go for sleeves, if you feel uncomfortable with the strapless exposures. A square or v-shaped neckline may be chosen to suit your taste. With casual bridal dresses, there exist actually unlimited options to choose ideal marriage attires. Few very common examples of informal marriage outfits are halter neckline, designer silhouettes, sleeves, waistlines, skirts with matching jackets, bridal trains, etc.

NEW YORKKKK!

Above is a picture of Jay & Alicia at the 2009 World Series where they performed there Empire State of Mind song! What song would have better fit the moment?
And two days later the highly anticipated "Empire State of Mind" video is finally here. Directed by Hype Williams he speaks on "Empire State Of Mind" video & where he was exactly going with the whole theme.

"Ok, basically Empire state was a very important video for me to direct, simply because of the sentiment it puts out there in the world about this town and how special it was to grow up here. If Jay is our era's Frank Sinatra then this is his pinnacle "New York, New York" record.

In short, I "visualized" the emotional content in this song, Jay's lyrics and Alicia Keys powerful voice. When people see this, they wont see a video, they'll see a pure visual interpretation of the feeling this song carries, and the artistic side of the best city in the world!" - Hype Williams

Here's the video!

POWERHOUSE 2009.

A few weeks ago, my fellow Most Official, Fashion was lucky enough to win tickets to the POWERHOUSE concert conducted by the radio station Power 105.1! She was given two tickets to the concert that took place on October 27th and she took me :-) (Saddity), sorry Stylin', lol.

The concert was majority male dominated with singers and rappers such as Day 26, Mario, Jim Jones, Juelz Santana, DJ Webstar, Maino, Red Cafe, Omarion, Sean Garrett, Fabolous, Chris Brown, The Dream & female hearthrob Trey Songz! This was Chris Brown's first time performing in close to a year since his incident with Rihanna. And I can say first hand that EVERYONE was happy for him to be back! The energy the crowd had was crazy, and the energy he gave off was crazier! He proved he still had "it" and we were proud to see that! His performance was great. Him not knowing what the reaction would be from the crowd didn't stop him at all. I loved that! Keri Hilson was the only estrogen featured in this concert, and I saw nothing wrong with that because of where she stands in the industry right now.

Here's a few pictures from the concert:

Fabolous managed to have the crowd rockin' despite his raspy voice! And he also messed up on his OWN SONG twice! But if you know me you know I didn't care! I was still in total BLISS!

Trey Songz? Hmmm. He introduced himself with a simple "YUUUUP" I dont think you would even understand me if i stressed how the ladies went completely OFF! I dont think we sat down the whole time he performed.

MissKeriBaby did her thing! Her energy was on point, and she performed strong, of course she looked magnificent doing so!

The Prince of R&B, CB proved that his time off only made him better. Seemed like even though he took days or even months off, he wasn't really "off".

Only God knows where they found Omarion but he has a new song I'm guessing and he performed it for about 5 seconds and a half. I didn't know the words so, I bopped along. LOL.

The Dream? AAAAH, he's like a breath of fresh air for R&B as well.

The concert overall was good, I wouldn't say great because I have been to better. .But I LOVED the line up, and thats all that matters. ♥
