Products and trends that didn't impress me--
A famine for sleeves-- I love strapless gowns as much as the next person, but from a practical standpoint, even in the spring and summer, not every bride can, will or wants to wear one. I would love to see a few more pretty short sleeve styles of gown for brides and maids whose venue or figure are not appropriate for quite to much skin showing.
Always scarce and still currently among the missing-- attractive gowns for mothers of the bride and groom. I liked one burgundy beaded sheath from Alyce Designs; it was grown up but not dowdy, so good for younger moms. But there isn't a lot that's inspiring out there.
$6 and $7 wedding favors or place card holders.
Wedding trend "gossip" columns.
That's what caught my eye this month. Happy, happy holidays and best wishes to you all!!
