Exploring the possibilities of having a wedding outfit which isn't formal and doesn't really follow the norms. It's important to me that I am really comfortable and beautiful on the day. These have all been planned with flats to keep my feet happy. Straps and flowing materials to avoid any ugly bulges and having to readjust myself all day. And they could be high street store prices which is fantastic because it keeps within my budget and doesn't make me feel guilty for spending astronomical amounts of money on a dress I will only wear for a day. They are feminine, useful and beautiful.

Wedding Day Make Up
Wedding Day Make Up Is A Topic Which Deserves Capital Letters. I am ever so slightly worried/scared at the prospect of having to get my makeup perfect for the day. I understand there are professionals out there but I would really like to not have to afford one. I am pretty creative and artistic so any tips or hints I can get from the pros I religiously storing away to pull out like a rabbit from a hat on the Big Day. 
smashbox - Photo Finish Foundation Primer $36
Primer is one of those things you can't see so I often overlook it unless I'm given a tiny tester of it and then all of a sudden I understand. This is the stuff beauty queens, models and Natalie Portman are made of. This is the stuff of legends...
Okay maybe that's a bit over the top but really if it means I won't look like a clown with dramatic dripping makeup sliding off my (by then perfect) jawline I am ecstatic. The above comes highly recommended by the pros and apparently everybody else.
Just a pinch @ $36 ca 30 quid - you better be worth it!
More to come....
For more tips and great ideas have a look at this edition of Utterly Engaged. Online Wedding magazine (the trees are thanking you) with more innovative and quirky looks, colour palettes, tips and DIY projects than your average internet site.
