Event Venue :: OUE Skyspace

Last month we were invited to host an event planner open house for the newest event space in downtown Los Angeles!  It’s the OUE – Skyspace lcoated in the 71st floor of the US Bank Tower.  It’s the highest event space you can find with amazing 360 views of LA.  It’s pretty much amazing!

Want to give out the memo? How about spreading the word with custom napkins that will definitely have everyone knowing what to do.

Adding some furniture to your bar will help as a fantastic backdrop and showcase of your delightful treats.

 
His and Hers drinks!!! Don’t mind if we take two.  And of course mother was right, we should always eat our fruits and vegetables so why not Sign your drink with a sweet topping.  With these ideas I’m sure your guests will not mind having seconds.

Infamous Wedding Gowns

Everyone of us have that favorite movie with “THE DRESS.”  I couldn’t resist but sharing my favorite with the infamous Carrie Bradshaw waiting for Mr. Big in a Vivienne Westwood gown.  And with the right accessories this dress just made me love it even more.

 
What wedding dress would you choose from a movie?                        

    

Wedding Dresses with the Perfect Color

White isn’t the only wedding dress color there is.  Jessica Biel, Reese Witherspoon and Gwen Stefani just to name a few are some of the daring brides to wear a “blushing dress.” Designers are playing with different colors for wedding gowns and a perfect example is Oscar de la Renta with his Ocean Breeze colors for a perfect beach wedding.  

Pretty in Pink is definitely what Jessica Biel did for her wedding day with this gorgeous fuchsia and pink strapless gown by Giambattista Valli.

I like the color

If romantic is what you are looking for I would suggest this heart-shaped strapless dress with earthy tones that would go with any bride having an outdoor wedding.
Reese Witherspoon rocking this lace corset bodice and full tulle A-line skirt designed by Monique Lhullier. She really set the tone for her romantic rustic wedding.
Like a beautiful mermaid that just walked out from the sea.  This blue satin faced organza ruffle train designed by Oscar de la Renta is a must for a beach wedding.

How about this Cinderalla inspired gown that just screams “Happy Ever After?”
Have an open mind and discover all the surprising colors you can wear for your wedding day.  It’s obvious that the bridesmaids aren’t the only ones that can be bold for the day.  Show off your style with the dress that is meant to be. 

Give a Girl a Pair of Shoes….

Shoes….Shoes….Shoes…..Any woman can tell you that no matter how many pairs of shoes she has in her closet she will always NEED more shoes.  Let me introduce some of the spectacular fashionable shoes that are a must for any special occasion especially for that special day.
I love these Badgley Mischka pair. The color is a summer must. And just below are that something blue for the bride to be this season.

Curves, curves, curves…..

I just can’t get enough of the Badgley Mischka.
 
Valentino is always so classy and flawless and once again they don’t miss a beat.

Story type of heels that have the detail were needed.  Indeed, I can keep going and going with an endless amount of shoes that are just drop dead gorgeous, and because we can’t get enough of them there has to be a PART II.
