Dreams Of Tomorrow!

Täna, 29. oktoobril, kell 22.00 lounge Wabaduses Sofia Rubina uue video esitlus! See on see sama video, millest ma kunagi ammu rääkisin, kus mina ja Janina tantsime ja sai ka pisut stilistikat tehtud. Loodetavasti või no õigemini kindlasti on oodata väga head videot, sest Sofiaga vist ei ole võimalik midagi halba teha. Nii et ajage oma jalad tagumiku alt välja ning head muusikat kuulama.

Gorgeous Sofia with even more gorgeous voice!

Wedding Style: Hauntingly Gorgeous Goth

It's finally here! With Halloween just two days away, this post concludes our creepy, kooky, mysterious, and spooky series. When planning for your Halloween event it is not always necessary to include ghosts, pumpkins, witches and the like. If those things seem a little too silly and childish for you then the best alternative for you would be to think in terms of Gothic style. Instead of ghouls and spider webs you get roses and lace. The key players in this motif are black and dark, blood red, candles, ornate damask prints, and lace. These may not be the most traditionally beautiful spaces, but there is something eerily enchanting about this type of decor that we just can't seem to resist.

Horror movies always take place in the dark, which means you need candles! Candles are a great way of adding light and ambiance to your venue, and the type of candles you choose can really shape the theme of your wedding. You can opt for heavy pewter candelabras with tall, thin candles, or large pillar candles to give it a Gothic feel.

We truly believe that your choice in flowers really sets your wedding theme, which is why we think these black calla lilies are perfect if you're going for a dark, Gothic theme. Lilies are often related to funerals and death, but traditionally they signify innocence and purity! Regardless, they are beautiful. If you're not into the lilies, however, then opt for black roses as a nice twist on tradition.

This Gothic wedding cake proves that beauty is in the details. Seriously, how gorgeous is this cake?! It simple, but so detailed! Covered in swirls, vines and flowers, this cake really helps evoke the feelings of love and passion and it just looks too good to eat!

Or, for something even more dramatic (did you think that was possible?) check out this bloody masterpiece. It's gorgeous in that American Beauty meets True Blood meets Twilight kind of way.

The first thing you think of when you think of horror and Gothic style are skulls, and we agree with that sentiment. However, as far as your wedding goes, you may want to hold back on the skulls, as it can be a little too kitschy and Hot Topic for our tastes. With that said, we think you can use skulls in your decor to add a subtle and interesting look, without coming off as too Avril Levine. Try this silver skull place card holder, for example. It's small, discrete, and tasteful (as far as skulls go), plus it's practical!

Antique rings are both unique and beautiful! This antique Edwardian ring is an intricate little work of art and would be a perfect engagement ring for the off-beat or Gothic bride.

Sexy & sultry, the birdcage veil is a must have for a modern Gothic wedding. There is something about it that is just so mysterious and alluring. Plus, the feathers on top really help to give this a costume-y Halloween feel.

Unique guest books are always fun! This ultra eerie book and feather pen are a beautiful and unique way incorporate the Halloween theme into your event. The torn pages are a nice touch and create an aged look and the matte finish on the frame and table certainly add to the drama.

The Goth bride can't just wear any old dress - she needs a dress with character, something enchanting and a little different. Luckily Claire Pettibone has such a great eye for romantic details and this dress from her 2009 Fall collection is perfect for our post today. Having a Halloween wedding doesn't have to mean costumes and scary make-up, it can be really feminine and pretty if done the right way.

Double, double toil and trouble.

Gisele Bündchen over time....

Gisele with the gorgeous BIG...eyes of course. Panin järjekorda catwalk´i ning lisasin ka mõned moepildid. Ma ei teagi, miks ma nüüd tema valisin, vast meeldis mulle tema üks fashionshoot ja tahtsin näha, mida head ta veel kunagi teinud on.

PS! Laupäeval Bon Bon-i, panen välja paar kleiti, mis loodetavasti kuidagi Halloweeni temaatikaga sobivad, üritan ka pilte teha, et saaks ikka teile ka näidata. Korraldajate sõnul algab moeshow kell pool 2 ÖÖSEL alles. Kui ma juhuslikult oma show´d maha ei maga (minu uneaeg hakkab juba siis kui tuhkatriinu tõld kõrvitsaks muutus) või ennast maha ei unusta, siis kohtume seal "toredas" ööklubis!

Väike muusikaline taust ka, et oleks lõbusam vaadata
