10 Best Dressed Guests at The Royal Wedding

We're so not done swooning over Kate Middleton's wedding dress yet, but we're going to turn our attention to the fabulous royal guests for a few minutes! Want to see who wore what? Check out our picks for the 10 best dressed...

Prince William's royal cousins--Beatrice and Eugenie--totally turned heads in their Phillip Treacy hats. Eugenie's electric blue number is by Vivienne Westwood, while Beatrice went with a detailed Valentino number.

The second most-watched couple of the day? Posh & Becks, but of course! Victoria Beckham wowed us with her version of maternity wear--a dress of her own design, paired with a Phillip Treacy topper and sky-high Christian Louboutin heels--while her hot husband showed his way with a Windsor knot.

You'd probably never see a maid of honor wearing white in the U.S., but Pippa Middleton pulled off this cowl-neck Alexander McQueen number with perfect grace. It shows off her gorgeous figure, but there's not a chance she could have upstaged her glowing sister on this day.

Queen Elizabeth II went with one of this season's hottest colors--bright, bold yellow!--in a perfectly tailored suit by Angela Kelly.

Who knew Joss Stone had such a sense of refinement? Her monochrome coral ensemble was perfectly chic--especially with that fabulous hat!

Speaking of fabulous hats...Princess Anne's daughter, Zara Phillips, gets our vote for the day's chicest! Hers is also by Phillip Treacy, and it gives the bride-to-be an air of total elegance.

Talk about royal blue! Tara Palmer Tomkinson, a British It-girl and TV personality, was no wallflower at this event. Her off-the-shoulder electric dress was even more wow-worthy thanks to a matching hat, gloves, clutch, and heels.

The prime minister's wife, Samantha Cameron, went traditionally British in a teal pleated sheath dress by Burberry. An Erdem statement necklace, orange scarf, and nude shoes completed the look.

Who do you gals think was the best dressed guest at the royal wedding? Don't you just love all of the hat-gazing? Discuss!

Top 10 2011 Trends "We Wouldn't Be Caught Dead In"

It's been a fairly low-key year for the fashion industry. Tail hems, pastels and ballet-inspired outfits are big, and more off-beat models with gap-teeth and tattoos are in demand.
No big news so far.
But just because there haven't been any surprises and scandals yet doesn't mean that there isn't a wave of potential trends coming at you. If the fashion police are real, we've got 10 crimes to report.
Coming up are 10 of this year's fashion trends that we wouldn't be caught dead in. From bunny ears to fabrics only surfers should wear, make sure none of these items end up in your closet.

10: Loungerie
Lingerie is hard enough to swing in the bedroom, but when designers start using lingerie-inspired outfits as casualwear, things get impossible. The only people who can get away with wearing underwear on the outside are superheroes and toddlers.

Don't get us wrong, though. We love the lacy mood that the spring and summer shows have been bringing to the table. Lace has a flirty refinement that isn't overly girly, which has been sorely lacking in a year otherwise populated by over-the-top biker outfits and childish rompers. We'd just rather keep the lace for daywear and save lingerie for the bedroom.

9: Jumpsuits and Rompers
We don't see the appeal of one-piece outfits.
Playsuits, jumpsuits and rompers are one-piece ensembles that the fashion world has killed and resurrected more times than Jason Voorhees has come back to life. And guess what's back for 2011?

While jumpsuits supposedly flatter certain body types, we have yet to see anyone pull them off. As far as we're concerned, they combine all the excitement of a pair of overalls with all the practicality of a hazmat suit. Why wouldn't we want to wear a one-piece sack that we have to take off to go to the bathroom? Oh wait, we remember. All those reasons we just said.

8: Neoprene
Anyone who's ever worn a wetsuit knows how flatteringly neoprene shapes you. It's tight and strong, it evens out bulges, and it's at least half the reason why surfers look so fantastic. But there are just two problems with neoprene: It's incredibly hot to wear, and there's literally nothing that skintight neoprene complements besides skintight neoprene.

Since it was designed as an insulator, any part of you that's under neoprene is going to be basted in sweat. And because it sucks you in, neoprene plus any other fabric basically makes normal humans like us look like two different people sewn together. One half is svelte and athletic, the other is really into cinnamon rolls. Hats off to those who can rock it, though.

7: Belt Purses
We feel a little bad about this one, because some of the belt purses we've seen are actually fantastic. There shouldn't be anything wrong with a sleek little clutch affixed to the hip -- and combining a clutch with a belt has that chocolate and peanut butter synchronicity to it.

Unfortunately, we still remember fanny packs. Shutter shades may have been able to make the jump from nerdy '80s reject to crazy hot fashion item (thanks, Kanye!), but it'll be a long time before a belt with a pouch on it can be associated with anything other than dumpy middle-aged tourists at Disney World.

6: Fruit Prints
Keep the garish fruit prints on Gramma's couch.
There's attention-grabbing, and then there's visually assaulting.

This year's fruit prints are strictly the latter, with all the color of an animal print and none of the class. It's a no-win situation. You can either go for density with an ocean of writhing bananas, or a slightly more tasteful citrus and floral print that will make people think you made it out of a tablecloth.

While fruit can be pleasant to look at, the statement it makes on printed fabric ends up being less "pastoral elegance" and more "breakfast buffet."

5: Fruit and Flower Hats for Men
Please don't make your man wear this hat.
Hats are one of the fashion accessories that are routinely touted as being in for men.

Partly it's because hats are undeniably cool, but it's also because what other headwear are you going to have for men? Tiaras? Flowers? Fruit?

Yes, apparently all of the above.

It's been an unusually floral spring for men, and designers trying to push the bounds of masculine headwear have been tilting at some pretty fruit-covered windmills. That flowery elfin vibe we've been seeing on the catwalk clearly needs to remain there. It's one of those things that's going to look great in the spreads but completely outlandish anywhere else.

Embrace at your own peril.

4: Animal Print Bomber Jackets
Fashion is a fickle beast. You never know what's going to be hot one year and cold the next. And though today's iron-clad fashion don'ts may be tomorrow's big-ticket item, animal print anything is a look that's hard to wear well. And while we have to admit that the fashion world is running hot on animal prints at the moment, getting the point across with a bunchy, shapeless bomber jacket just screams cringe-worthy. Who cares if python is the new cheetah? Oh well, at least they're better than real fur.

3: The Overly Comfortable Trend
Leggings are still lurching down the runway.
It's great when a pair of pants both looks great and feels comfortable, but we don't like where some of this is heading.

Jeggings and pajama jeans, we're looking in your direction.

Though they've been around since 2009 or so, fake elastic jeans, with their unstoppable combination of colossally bad taste and endless popularity in the face of widespread ridicule, have earned them a spot on our list. These pants have the marks of tomorrow's trash bins all over them -- cheap, fake, synthetic and ubiquitous. While we wish we could say that they've jumped the shark already, they're certain to be highly visible during 2011.

2: Bunny Ears
Ooh, bunny ears. Why we won't be caught in them should be obvious. Of course, they're not meant to be actual bunny ears -- the designs we've seen look more like a pairs of studded silk radar dishes. Unique and attention-getting they may be, but also goofily impractical and lacking in any substance. This is not fashion, this is a costume. Pass!

1: Biker Chic

Charley Gallay/Getty Images
Actress Lesli Kay combines biker chic with animal prowess.
This year, we're afraid you're going to have to choose between two themes on opposite ends of the spectrum. In one corner, there's ballerina chic: wrap dresses, draping skirts, ballet flats and tufty tutus. In the other, there's biker chic: buckles, studs and black leather everything. Yes, the biker look can be done well -- just see Kate Moss on the cover of LOVE magazine for proof.

But while the biker look may have some legs (wrapped up in thigh-high boots, no less), it doesn't have the versatility of this year's ballet-inspired designs.

Our prediction? Frou-frou beats vroom-vroom.

The Top Ten Fitness Trends for 2011

It’s only November, but luckily for us, the fine folks at ACE and ACSM have put together their respective Top 10 Fitness Trends for 2011 lists.




So, if you’re interested in knowing what programs your local health club will be pushing onto you come January, read on.

The ACE Top Ten List includes:

1. Economic Upswing: In general, consumers are preparing for an economic upswing that is motivating more individuals to resume their personal training and fitness regimens.

2. Added-Value Wellness Services: More gyms and clubs will begin to hire other allied healthcare professionals to serve the expanding needs of their health-conscious members – nutrition, physical therapy, etc.

3. Stress Reduction Through Fitness: With the increased knowledge of how stress negatively affects the body, gyms and clubs will start offering wellness programs so their members develop effective strategies for managing their stress levels.

4. Technology Becomes a Support Resource: Although there have been a great deal of technological advances within the fitness industry, online interactive classes will not proliferate in 2011, demonstrating the desire for human contact with fitness professionals. However, social networks like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube will become increasingly popular serving as an online motivational support system to complement personal training sessions.

5. Buddy System: Healthy support groups will become a more popular offering in gyms due to peer encouragement and increased potential for success. This thinking also holds true for older adults, with the majority of them seeking group classes to stay fit.

6. Most Popular Workouts: Boot camp-style workouts will remain popular among consumers based on its intensity and efficiency. Zumba classes will continue to offer a fun alternative to more traditional dance classes, while TRX Suspension training and interval training both offer intense workout experiences with impressive results.

7. Small-Group Workouts: Small-group sessions remain a very popular way for individuals to exercise. Whether through personal training, strength training, cardiovascular exercise, or sessions for older adults, small-group sessions will be “in” as a way to socialize, cut costs and stay motivated.

8. Youth-Based Fitness: Expect to see more youth-focused classes and clients popping up in gyms thanks to the national attention and focus on childhood obesity. Schools and fitness centers will also incorporate more exercise curriculum for the youth population.

9. Corporate Wellness: Whether it is through the hiring of in-house personal trainers or discounts and incentives offered to employees that join a health club, corporate wellness programs will emerge country-wide to help encourage healthy lifestyles among workers, especially time-crunched consumers.

10. Elevated Professionalism: There will be a significant increase in the hiring of personal trainers that hold a NCCA-accredited certification at gyms and fitness centers. With consumers becoming more educated and fitness-savvy, they understand the need for fitness professionals to have the proper education and high-quality certifications…like an ACE certification perhaps?

The ACSM Top Ten List includes:

1. Educated and experienced fitness professionals. see #10 on the Ace list

2. Fitness programs for older adults. As the baby boom generation ages into retirement, some of these people have more discretionary money than their younger counterparts. Therefore, many health and fitness professionals are taking the time to create age-appropriate fitness programs to keep older adults healthy and active.

3. Strength training. Strength training remains a central emphasis for many health clubs. Incorporating strength training is an essential part of a complete physical activity program for all physical activity levels and genders.

4. Children and obesity. With childhood obesity growing at an alarming rate, health and fitness professionals see the epidemic as an opportunity to create programs tailored to overweight and obese children. Solving the problem of childhood obesity will have an impact on the health care industry today and for years to come.

5. Personal training. More and more students are majoring in kinesiology, which indicates that students are preparing themselves for careers in allied health fields such as personal training. Education, training and proper credentialing for personal trainers have become increasingly important to the health and fitness facilities that employ them.

6. Core training. Distinct from strength training, core training specifically emphasizes conditioning of the middle-body muscles, including the pelvis, lower back, hips and abdomen—all of which provide needed support for the spine.

7. Exercise and weight loss. In addition to nutrition, exercise is a key component of a proper weight loss program. Health and fitness professionals who provide weight loss programs are increasingly incorporating regular exercise and caloric restriction for better weight control in their clients.

8. Boot camp. Boot camp is a high-intensity structured activity program modeled after military style training and led by an instructor. Boot camp incorporates cardiovascular, strength, endurance and flexibility drills in both indoor and outdoor settings.

9. Functional fitness. This is a trend toward using strength training to improve balance and ease of daily living. Functional fitness and special fitness programs for older adults are closely related.

10. Physician referrals. Physician referrals, a key component of the Exercise is Medicine initiative, partner medical professionals with heath and fitness professionals to seamlessly integrate exercise into their patients’ lives.

Well, I don’t know about you, but these lists seem to be focused on commercial health club activities and personal training. It’s almost as if ACE and ACSM are using these lists as a promotional tool to encourage more people to sign up for their courses to become personal trainers.

Damn, I have become cynical in my old age.

Top 10 Oprah’s Favorite Things 2010

Source: indyposted.com | This year Oprah Winfrey pulled out all the stops when celebrating her annual “Favorite Things” episode, giving out a plethora of thoughtful and sometimes extremely lavish gifts to her audience. The over-the-top nature of some of the gifts is thought to be due to this being her final season, and her last “Favorite Things” giveaway. Here are our top 10 favorites from Oprah’s Favorite Things 2010 show.

10. 5-year Netflix Membership

Netflix may have been the true big winners in this particular gift, given the massive promotional boost that comes with a recommendation by Oprah Winfrey. Still, 5 years of movies and TV, both delivered home and streamed online, is a gift worth cherishing. And the Netflix service is a well-oiled machine. Even at its cheapest, a year’s worth of Netflix costs about $107. So for the simplest-featured account, you could expect to shell out $535 for 5 years. Not too shabby a prize!



9. Nike “Free Run+” Shoes

35 years of research have culminated in Nike’s “Free” technology, which Oprah claims is the next best thing to being barefoot. Designed for free running, the names of the game with this shoe are cushion, traction, and protection. The shoe, which retails for $85, strengthens muscles in the feet and ultimately leads to a more effective workout. And in an array of vibrant colors, these sneakers are visually appealing and really stand out.


8. Tory Tote and Reva Ballerina Flat by Tory Burch

This one proved to be a massive fan favorite. “Everyone loves Tory Burch,” Oprah asserts, and she might just be right. The tote was constructed in grey flannel with silver leather accents to commemorate the 25th anniversary – i.e. silver anniversary – of Oprah’s show. To complete an ensemble, Oprah threw in matching grey flannel Reva ballerina flats, a Tory Burch signature. Worth $250 for the tote; $195 for the flats.



7. Breville Panini Press from Williams-Sonoma

Yum. Oprah gave the gift of delicious hot sandwiches – of which this panini press can cook 4 at a time! Williams-Sonoma considers it the perfect solution for quick family meals or casual entertaining. It also doubles as an indoor grill with some great features for healthier cooking, like a specially-angled surface that lets fats drip away from grilling meats. (It can also be kept flat to seal in juices.) It’s an all-in-one solution for great paninis, since you can grill vegetable and meat ingredients before assembling the sandwich and using the machine to give it a perfect sear. $99.95 at Williams-Sonoma



6. Limited Edition 25th Anniversary “Oprah” Watch by Philip Stein

A gift that’s likely to appeal more to females, but must be mentioned for its incredible worth of $2,475 and it’s chic style, is the limited edition 25th anniversary “Oprah” watch by designer Philip Stein. As the name suggests, it’s designed only to celebrate Oprah’s 25th year. It’s diamond-encrusted – 58 hand-set diamonds in all – and tells time in two time zones. Such a great gift for ladies on the go, and on the road.



5. Judith Ripka Eclipse Earrings

Alright…this one’s undeniably girly, but it’s also undeniably gorgeous! Canary crystal stones and white sapphires set in sterling silver sparkle like nobody’s business and set off any outfit. They’re worth about $525 and can be seen in greater detail at JudithRipka.com. Simply stunning.



4. elfa décor Custom-Built Container Store Closet

elfa décor make some of the most eye-catching and functional closet storage systems around. And a custom-built beauty courtesy of Oprah is worth $1000. elfa décor closets put an end to closet chaos and instill a sense of serenity and order to any clothes and accessory storage effort. Organization reigns supreme, but the aesthetics are worth their weight in gold, too. Lucky winner!



3. Nikon D3100 Digital SLR Camera

At a cool $700, this impressive camera, which hit the market in August, boasts 14.2 megapixels. It has a 23.1 x 15.4 mm CMOS sensor and takes large photos at a resolution of 4,608 x 3,072 pixels, medium photos at 3,456 x 2,304 pixels, and small photos at 2,304 x 1,536 pixels. It’s a recipe for crisp, beautiful photographs and now we know it’s Oprah endorsed!


2. Sony BRAVIA LX900 HDTV with 3D

$3,600 of state-of-the-art television enjoyment was up for grabs on Oprah’s list. The LX900 is the highest rated 3D TV on the market, offering both gripping 3D viewing and regular viewing. In addition? The audience got a Sony BDP-S570 3D Blu-ray Disc Player and three 3D movies to get them started.


1. Royal Caribbean Allure of the Seas Cruise

Ice skating, zip lines, rock climbing, dancing ball rooms, 3D movie theater, and a park…at sea? That’s what the Allure of the Seas offers, the largest cruise ship currently in existence. Oprah gave away a 7 day at-sea adventure and, courtesy of United Airlines, air transportation to and from the cruise. There was no approximate monetary value given for this particular gift, but the least expensive 7 day Caribbean cruise on this ship goes for $765.00.

Top 10 Wedding Dress Trends for Spring 2010

Source: http://blog.dhgate.com |
The just-ended Bridal Fashion Week, the premier event for the Bridal fashion industry, has displayed top talents of leading designers for wedding dresses. Never miss out the chance to get inspiration from these fashion designs to make “the dress of a lifetime”. Let’s have a glimpse at the Top 10 trends that could hit the near Spring 2010:
Trend 1: ’50s Glamour

This year a ‘50s style swept the fashion week. There were high necklines, tulle skirts, and tea-length styles! Amazingly, the ‘50s glamour focused on waist belts and the elegant bowknots.
Trend 2: The Bold Shoulder

From Michelle Obama to Emmy stars, one-shoulder style seems to have won over a large number of fans. But, this season, the over-the-top details are what really make these asymmetrical necklines stand out.
Trend 3: Bows

From droopy satin styles to more structural ones, these girly details are the hottest knots to hit the bridal dress fashion runways. The girly bows are reminiscent of fairy tales dreams and allow the bride to live the part on her very own special day.
Trend 4: Couture Cover-ups

It’s a bit tough if the wedding is held in the freezing early spring but many brides still want strapless wedding gowns. Don’t worry. This fashion week shows a great selection of couture cover-ups – airy tulle boleros, feathered capelets, floor-length lace coats, and many more.
Trend 5: Pretty Pleats

This playful detail works like magic, when twill pleats from the waist down hide the belly fat. A ball gown with the twill pleats and corset closure at the top could perfectly show your body line and give you the extra support every bride wants and needs.
Trend 6: Garden Romance

From simple, cherry-blossom details to oversized, eye-catching rosettes, from lotus neckline to lily style, the bride can choose from blooms of all types. The garden glamour will definitely leads to a back-to-nature fashion. It’s especially fit for a fabulous outdoor wedding in a park, by a lake, or on a beach. 
Trend 7: Illusion Necklines

Be it bateau, V-neck, or even one-shoulder, illusion lace necklines mean subtle and sexy.
Trend 8: Metallic Touches

Want to shine down the wedding aisle? Consider one of the hot, new styles with glittering gold or silver cloth. Crystal or diamond décor at the waist, shining bracelets or necklines help the bride sparkle her way to the altar.
Trend 9: Bits of Black

Not just for the Gothic bride anymore, this dark hue showed up in all kinds of wedding dress details, from dainty bows and sashes to bolder, allover embellishments.
Trend 10: Raw Edges

From the sound of it, you may think this trend might leave a wedding dress looking unfinished, but these rough, just-cut hemlines and details make for a completely unique bridal look.
