Royal Wedding: Editor’s Perspective

April 30, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor Leave a Comment

As Editor-in-Chief of theBrideScoop, I get to hand out assignments, create fun days of collaborative writing for our writers and read everything that is submitted! So when we get to share a whole day of one topic with our readers, I think you see us at our best. I always have an opinion and sometimes I disagree with an article but I weigh that with what I think needs to be said about weddings and brides and whatnot. But here are MY opinions – loves and dislikes - about the Royal Wedding… one year and one day later!

We love caviar… to eat! What about as an exfoliant? Or a facial?

April 26, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor Leave a Comment

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reported Monday that chin implantation was the fastest-growing cosmetic plastic surgery procedure in 2011. The rate of chin surgery actually grew more than Botox, liposuction and boob jobs combined!

TIP TUESDAY: Get A Pedicure!

In preparation for writing this article, I googled ugly toes. I dare you. Just don’t do it when you are eating… I am scarred for life at what I saw! Really, really bad. So, I will save you from the worst ugly toe photos but here is one that I bet looks like a lot of your little piggies - not horrible but definitely not cute!

POLL: Should men dye their hair?

Admit it… you know and we know that Elvis dyed his hair! And we now know (thought a personal barber) that convicted felon Blagojevich (otherwise known as Illinois former governor) that he also dyed his hair.

TIP TUESDAY: He Thinks You Are Pretty Darn Perfect

March 13, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor 2 Comments

“The bump in your nose. You used to always wonder if everyone noticed it as much as you did. One day you are going to meet a guy who is so cute you cannot believe that he’s talking to you, and you are going to become good friends. And then you’re going to fall in love. And one day, when you get up the courage to ask him what he thinks of the bump in your nose, he’s going to say, ‘What bump?’” ~ Jodi Picoult, best selling author of My Sister’s Keeper and Sing You Home, with her contribution to Dear Me: A Letter to My Sixteen-Year-Old Self

TIP TUESDAY: Did you know makeup has an expiration date?

March 6, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor Leave a Comment

And no, the expiration date of your makeup is not when you are done with the product! Once makeup or lotion is opened, you should consider replacing it after a certain amount of time and we think you will be surprised by the guidelines provided to us by Linda Durham, a professional organizer!

TIP TUESDAY: You’re Sexy & You Know It

January 17, 2012 By SQN Events Leave a Comment

Sunday night kicked off Awards Season with the Golden Globes and we all had a glimpse of what the latest trends in fashion are (according to Hollywood stylists, anyway). Hottest colors on the red carpet included soft shades of nude, fire-engine red and peacock blue (our favorite!). We also saw gorgeous jeweled headbands (now this is a trend that will surely make its way into the world of bridal fashion), soft and wavy hairstyles that frame the face (instead of the slicked back ponytail that always looks a bit harsh), and most impressively, dresses that were modest but still incredibly sexy.

TIP TUESDAY: Do Not Become An Oompa Loompa

Let’s just put it out there: there is such a thing as being TOO tan. And if you had told that to me in my teen years, I would have disagreed heartily with you. Let us examine the evidence.

Okay, sorry! That was too easy!!! How about….

TIP TUESDAY: Two Words: Waterproof. Mascara.

January 10, 2012 By theBrideScoop Editor Leave a Comment

Perhaps you will be one of the very few women who do not tear up at some point at their wedding. In reality, most brides will have tears in their eyes at some point during the day – if you make it through the ceremony without spilling tears, then it may be your fathers’ touching toast that brings the happy water works.
