Who cares!!!!!  That's what Claire Pettibone, one of my favorite designers who has entered the scene recently by embracing old school screen siren glamour in silhouettes with a feminine vintage appeal,  said when describing what goes into designing her line.  Check out the interview here, and if you haven't seen her incredible designs on Mark Zuckerburg's wife yet, check here.

It's your wedding day girls!  Despite what fashion throws our way the most important moment of your life begins with your dress search.  It's a bond like the one you have with your new fiance.  There's just something about it that compliments you and makes you smile a little bigger when it's around.  That moment you try on your gown should be like the moment you knew you wanted to spend the rest of your life with your partner-to-be.  

Every dress you try on will be pretty.  The reason we girls tend to put so much focus on our gowns though isn't the fabrication and designer label, it's the emotional attachment.  The wedding should be about the  couple, the dress is just for you!  Sure, it doesn't hurt to give your soon-to-be some eye candy and your friends and family something to awe over; but the dress should be about you!  It should, of course, compliment our body type and personal style.  But just like any piece in your wardrobe, getting stuck on the current trend will only result in a dated closet.  Just like your soon-to-be, when you look at your dress in fifty years, you should remember why you loved it and how good it made you feel.

What were your favorites and what will you be wearing in 2013?
