Fall in love with our newest collection: Kitty Chen

2011-12-11T14:16:00.001-08:00

I am having a serious love affair with the newest collection available now at Bridal Expressions: Kitty Chen.

We purchased these dresses WAY back in July and I had forgotten how amazing they are, but now that some of the 2012 collection has arrived in store I am freaking out about how stunning they are. I am seriously in love with so many of the styles, I can't even pick a favorite.

Kitty Chen wedding dresses are unique, there is just something about them that is very fashion forward and yet classic. And for you brides who need a modest wedding dress but don't like the "cookie cutter" look you can have any Kitty Chen dress made modest for just $100!

Check out our brand new website www.Bridal-Expressions.com to buy Kitty Chen dresses online.

My Favorite Beauty Products

2011-12-06T14:44:00.001-08:00

Your wedding day is the most important day of your life, so why not look your best? Here are some AMAZING beauty products that I swear by.

Concealer

This is my go-to concealer for everything! I have major dark circles and this easy to apply and weightless concealer by Yves Saint Laurent is the perfect cover up. I am not a huge fan of wearing makeup that feels heavy on my face which is why TOUCHE ÉCLAT Radiant Touch is the best. Don't let the $40 price tag deter you, this makeup staple lasts forever and will quickly become one of your favorites, plus it's easy to carry in a purse and use on the go.

Eyebrows

Want amazing eyebrows like Kim Kardashian? The secret is Anastasia! Anastasia is THE eyebrow guru to celebrities but you don't have to be famous to have fabulous eyebrows. Anastasia features a whole eyebrow system including stencils, pencils, powders, tweezers, wax, and pretty much everything you need to define your brows. But, if you need something that is fast and easy to use I love the Anastasia Eyebrow Pencil. It comes in lots of different colors (be careful not to go too dark!) so you can have natural looking eyebrows that look instantly fuller and defined. I use this pencil everyday and it is something I simply cannot live without. PS: If you don't want to go the DIY way with the Anastasia Stencils your local Nordstrom probably has an Anastasia-trained esthetician on staff who will wax your brows using the Anastasia system. (Personal note: After one too many times of coming back from the salon with too thin eyebrows I went to Anastasia at Nordstrom and have never looked back!)

Moisturizer

I have combination skin, one day my face can be really dry and the next super oily so finding a lotion at the drug store that worked for me was next to impossible. It seemed every lotion I tried was too oily, too heavy, or not moisturizing enough, I could never find one that just worked for me until I tried Exuviance Multi-Protective Day Fluid. This $35 bottle of lotion packs a huge punch! The pump on the top never puts out too much lotion so the tiny bottle lasts forever (I usually only have to buy it twice a year). Plus, this awesome moisturizer has SPF 15 which protects you from the sun which means fewer wrinkles. Exuviance's Day Fluid is never too oily, never too heavy, and absorbs almost instantly, plus it smells amazing.

Eyelashes

Say Goodbye to your lash curler, because this Lash Curling Mascara by Trish McEvoy is probably my best kept beauty secret. One thing I hate about traditional mascaras is how easily they flake off, leaving black specks all over your face. I tried all kinds of mascara including drug store brands and expensive department store brands and never found one I loved until one day I was recommended this by an esthetician. It was love at first swipe! This "Tube" mascara goes on just like any other mascara, but when you take it with soap and water off it "peels" off into tiny strips. Oh... and it never ever flakes off, ever. If you forget to take off your mascara before going swimming, you don't even have to worry about black streaks on your face, it will just "peel" off. If you want longer, thicker, curlier, fuller lashes then you are definitely a Trish girl. One thing you should know though is that this mascara takes a few minutes to fully dry, so don't put on sunglasses right after application!

Planning a Wedding? Join Pinterest!

2011-12-03T10:00:00.000-08:00

Like all of you we have fallen in love with Pinterest. This new social media is particularly great for the girl who is planning a wedding. I cannot think of anything easier than finding my fav stuff online and posting it onto an easy to use "board". It's like cutting inspiration pictures out of magazines, but so much easier and with no clean up!

Seriously, if you have not used Pinterest yet you are missing out on the best way to keep track of all the things you love and want to incorporate into your wedding.

Our "Vintage Inspired" Pinterest Board

We use Pinterest all the time to put the things that we find inspiring in one place that we can share with everyone. But, I have to warn you Pinterest can be super addictive!

Vintage Style Wedding Dresses

2011-12-02T12:52:00.000-08:00

Everyday I have girls coming in and asking for vintage style lace wedding dresses and rest assured my vintage-loving friends we have TONS of lovely lace dresses that we are just dying to have in store. Luckily 2012 wedding dresses will be arriving soon, but until then enjoy this eye candy that I have put here for you to lust over!

To Do or Not to Do: Birdcage Veils

2011-12-01T10:11:00.001-08:00

One of the hottest wedding accessories right now is the Birdcage Veil. This small blusher-like veil is usually worn over the face and slightly off to an angle (usually over just one eye).

Even though this wedding accessory screams "vintage" it may not be right for your vintage-inspired wedding. Not every person who puts on a birdcage veil falls in love at first sight, and that's just fine. The best thing about your wedding day look is that you get to customize it to match your own personal style. The best way to know if a birdcage veil is right for you is to try them on!

There are a couple different styles of birdcage veils, so be sure to try them all!

1. Veil Only Birdcage

Photo Courtesy of Mariell

A Veil only birdcage veil is just that, only a veil. This type of veil has a small swath of French netting and a comb which is generally worn at the crown or back of the head. Simple and classic.

2. Visor Veil Birdcage

Photo Courtesy of Mariell

This type of birdcage veil has two combs attached to the French netting and the combs will be placed on either side of your head. A vintage style with a modern twist.

3. Birdcage Veil with an accessory

This veil is just like the veil only option, but instead of just a comb features an accessory, usually a brooch, hair comb, or a flower. The accessory and veil can be separate or attached.

4. Fascinator with Birdcage Veil

Think of a fascinator as a small hat. This style has become increasingly popular since their appearance at the royal wedding. This style is fun and super retro.

Going to Chicago Bridal Market

2010-09-21T17:59:00.000-07:00

I am very excited that in just one week and a half I will be seeing the latest and greatest from wedding dress designers and prom dress designers! I cannot wait to see what amazing new things will be coming in 2011.

Every year I am so lucky to get to go to Chicago and spend an entire weekend looking at amazing dresses and accessories, what a dream job! But, this year as I got to thinking about fall bridal and prom market I started to wonder what kind of dresses you would choose if you had the opportunity to go, so I thought why not ask our readers? What trends do you just love, and if you could have any kind of dress what would you choose? Any designers you can't get enough of?

You can comment on here, or send me an email addressed to Chelsea at contact@bridal-expressions.com

Bridal Expressions Welcomes Our Newest Collection: Alma Novia

2010-08-11T17:15:00.000-07:00

Vintage Inspired Veils and Headpieces

2010-08-04T22:20:00.000-07:00

The most popular wedding trend for 2010 simply has to be 'Vintage'. It seems that everyday I have brides coming into Bridal Expressions looking for vintage inspired wedding dresses and headpieces.

One of the vintage inspired trends that I love the most is face veils, which have recently become more popularly known as bird cage veils. These 1940s inspired headpieces are fun and unique and can make a great statement piece for any vintage loving bride. Below are just some of the face veils that we carry, we have more in-store.

This is one of the most popular bird cage veils that we carry.
The flower has just the right amount of glitter,
and the net veil fits perfectly.

This bird cage veil is offset by a small but stunning
crystal and rhinestone hair comb.

The double flower detail of this face veil in addition
to the scattered pearls gives this veil a light and whimsical feeling.

Another big wedding hairpiece trend for 2010 is the wedding hair flower. 2010 has seen a return to very organic and natural looking hair accessories and nothing showcases this more than the hair flower.

I love the how the double flower paired with the wispy feathers
makes this hair flower feel very natural but still very bridal.

New Allure Couture Wedding Dress at Bridal Expressions

2010-05-24T18:55:00.000-07:00

We just received this amazing asymmetrical lace wedding dress designed by Allure Couture. I love its vintage style and old-world elegance.

The bodice features a lace appliqué detailed single shoulder strap with stunning hand bead work (it really is amazing). Up close the lace is so unique and gives the dress a totally fantastic vibe.

I would love this gown with a bird cage veil or a hair flower. I think this dress is so versatile it would work for any kind of wedding from a simple garden affair to an formal evening event.

Check out even more strapless wedding dresses from Allure Couture and other great brands like Two by Rosa Clara at Bridal Expressions in Sandy, Utah.

Stop Fashion Piracy

2010-04-07T21:53:00.000-07:00

So lately I have noticed a lot of Chinese companies selling poor copies of real designer wedding and prom dresses online and it got me to thinking about how much these copies affect the integrity of the bridal industry. These fake companies steal the designers pictures from the official websites and post them on their own counterfeit website, tricking customers into believing that they are receiving an actual designer dress when, in fact, they are receiving a poorly reproduced copy. As a local business Bridal Expressions encourages buying from a local trusted source to prevent you from falling prey to one of these illegitimate website scams.

I realize that some people do not see what is wrong with buying a counterfeit dress online, but what people don't realize is that by buying from an authorized retailer you are not only getting the quality and service you expect, but you are also helping out your local community. Small businesses play an important role in a healthy community, sales tax and income tax from small businesses provide money for local governments and local schools. Without small businesses there would be less teachers for our students and fewer police officers on our streets. By buying locally from an authorized dealer you are bettering your community. Purchasing a fake dress online means that all of your money ends up in a foreign country, your community and your country see no benefit.

I recently saw this letter from Alyce Designs which I think outlines the risk that counterfeit merchandise poses to small businesses in the United States. Alyce Designs has some of the most unique prom dress designs and Bridal Expressions is very proud to carry them in our store and we would be devastated if they were unable to continue doing business because of Chinese copies of their designs flooding the internet. Purchasing counterfeit dresses online means that American workers lose their jobs, when fewer legitimate dresses are purchased dress designers will hire fewer people and they may eventually have to close their doors, leaving a lot Americans without jobs.

Check out StopFashionPiracy.com to learn more about how to stop fashion piracy and protect American integrity.

Bridal Expressions is proud to be a local business who keeps the best interest of the community at heart by purchasing designer dresses directly from the manufacturer. We understand that by doing business in a legitimate way that we better our community and our country. Also check out LocalFirst.org to learn why buying locally creates a better Utah.

Bridal Expressions will be receiving brand new vintage-inspired wedding gowns in the next week or two. We are so glad to be showcasing these unique and totally not cookie-cutter wedding gowns from Fancy New York.

As I blogged about a few posts ago we are changing things up at Bridal Expressions. Not only will we continue to offer the most fashion-forward modest wedding gowns available but we will be carrying a variety of strapless and contemporary wedding gown designs.

Some of the new vintage dresses we will feature in the store have amazing details like real vintage fabrics from Europe. There are also customizations available for these dresses, which means that brides who need sleeves can have them added at factory level.

I have posted just two of the pictures of these gowns on here, but we have more styles coming in than are available for view on the internet.

Keep checking back on this blog and on our website www.bridal-expressions.com to see the latest that Bridal Expressions has to offer, or better yet follow our blog by clicking on the link on the right.

I will be updating the blog a lot within the next several weeks with photos of new prom, bridesmaids, wedding dresses, and accessories, so come back often!
