Royal Wedding Dress(es)

Friday, April 29th, 2011

Leading up to the Royal Wedding, there has been so much talk about what the future Princess will be wearing! So when Kate Middleton finally debuted “the gown” for the world to see, it is no surprise that her wedding dress is astonishingly beautiful!

The stunning Alexander McQueen creation by Sarah Burton has intricate lace appliqué bodice and sleeves – very much inspired by the wedding gown worn by Grace Kelly!

Her dress is simply elegant, beautiful and perfect for a Princess!

Kate changed into a reception dress also by Sarah Burton. I personally love her Grace Kelly inspired dress so much more! I wouldn’t have taken that stunner off!

Pippa Middleton, Kate’s sister, also wore a gown by Ms. Burton from Alexander McQueen. And like Kate, she looked absolutely stunning!

All this Royal Wedding talk has gotten me thinking about my own wedding (the BIG day is September 10, 2011). Unfortunately, mine won’t be nationally televised but I will post pictures and videos for you all to see!

Behind the Scenes…

Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

Last Sunday, we shot some new images for Covet Shop on our roof top in Manhattan with the uber talented Helen Eriksson! One of the images will be used as my new bio photo. We went in an editorial direction to add some feeling and fun into the photos. My dear friend, Kim Wolf, helped me with the styling. Here is a look at some of the behind the scenes…

The selects will be posted to Covetshop.com in the next few weeks. These behind the scenes photos are courtesy of my soon to be hubby, Gregg Friedman. Thanks to everyone for a fun and successful shoot!
