There’s a baby boom this year! We think it’s in the water. Others are blaming it on the cold snap. Whatever it is, there’s a lot of fabulous, glowing pregnant ladies around (the WOL office included)! So we decided to put together some beautiful bridesmaid dresses for those of you who are expecting pitter pattering very soon!

Wedding Inspiration from the Oscars!

Ahh! So Award Season has officially come to an end, and men and women all over the world can finally breathe a sigh of relief (and let their bellies out). Sigh. I have to start by letting you all know, however, that I was not one of the ones glued to twitter and my TV screen this year, in the hope of spotting a designer before the next fashionista, I instead decided to sit back and let the wave of beautiful people wash over me while I sat in PJs drinking red wine and eating bread. The super stylish world of a magazine editor there ladies and gents. Anywho, I decided to jot up a little piece on all the sartorial goings on on Sunday night, and how they will translate into weddings the world over this year -a flashcard for the bridal-trend curious if you will.

Finally! Just to note that there are some very prominant members of the EL AY fashion society not present here, this is either a) They wore nothing worth noting or, b) they wore something I didn't like, and unlike most eds I don't believe in doing the 'who got it right/who got it wrong' saga, as it often comes back to bite you on the behind.

Here's how I see trends translating into bridal style. As it does every year. What were your fave looks of the night?
