I have to admit, I am a huge sucker when it comes to purchasing nice quality beauty sets (maybe because I know how quick each cosmetic item can add up at the register & cant pass up a quality set bargain)! Not only are these sets lovely & great in price, but they are all reputable brands that are known for creating top notch products. For any Bridesmaid or friend out there trying to figure out a great and practical gift for the Bride, without a doubt any of these would be a hit... If your not the Bride, but interested in purchasing cosmetic beauty products for the Bride to be - my 1 tipe is: don't expect the Bride to wear it on wedding day! If she loves each piece of the set so much, she just may choose to wear it on her big day (just keep in mind that you shouldn't have hurt feelings if she wears only the makeup artists cosmetics)... The reason I recommend this item for any Bride or gift to a Bride, is its a fabulous gift to be able to slip in any bag when traveling on your honeymoon, great for any pre-wedding events, and so much more. The great prices and great quality of these products are a shoe in for a fabulous purchase for yourself or as a gift~

I am a huge fan of OPI Beauty Nail Polishes and have to admit that they are often my choice for a hint of color when having to choose one at the nail salon;) I love, love, love... these fantastic tones they currently have especially for you beauty brides out there! Check out their website when putting together your wedding day look (i recommend gather pictures of your dress, bridesmaid fabric, and jewelry to better help you choose just the right one). Remember that on this big day your hands will be seen so much and captured in pictures; I'm sure you don't want to look back dreading your polish choice.

"Stella" by Tocca Parfum is my absolute favorite scent as it has such a classic and elegant richness to it... It sure makes for a fabulous Bridal Shower Gift, a sweet smelling gift for The Bride from her loving Groom on their big day (I always recommend the Groom to pass along a thoughtful wedding gift with a hand written note to his Bride on the big day. Be sure to pass this on to a responsible person to make sure they hand deliver it to her as she is getting ready - it's a great way to remind her your thinking of her and excited to become her "Husband")! Also, it is very appropriate for a Mother of the Bride to gift to her daughter or for the Bride to gift to her Maid of Honor~

Most young girls are given a mental picture of what Brides are supposed to look like from fairytale stores and such; you know...

The Ideal Bridal Style has since evolved! There is no longer a rule out there that says you Have to wear a veil or if you do that it has to be a long sheer white one. Now days, modern Brides are either sticking with the traditional white veil, but are also going more contemporary with unique hair pieces or colored veils such as the ones shown above! Brides are able to have fun with their hair styles and adding floral accessories or even something blue in some way.
