Ever since Carine Roitfeld left her position at Vogue Paris, she has been using her name to launch a variety of new ideas - her CR magazine, a book, there was even talk of a fashion label and now it appears she's considering launching her own fragrance.
Carine took out a trademark for the name 'Forgive Me' in January this year but then a “notification of possible opposition” happened in October which could halt her perfume plans for longer. According to reports, the 'Forgive Me' name would also apply to a whole range of beauty/cosmetic products. Carine was recently named global fashion director at Harper's Bazaar and has collaborated with MAC cosmetics.

I received an email this afternoon from the J.Crew Company stating that their hearts go out to those in need and included a phone number for any help needed with their store closed locations, etc. So far, Starbucks and J.Crew remain the only companies that I have seen publicly acknowledge the hurricane disaster that has effected the entire east coast, including my hometown of Cape May, New Jersey. I wonder who else will follow suit ...

Ok, for the record, my favorite color is pink. I love all shades of pink, especially lighter shades like ballet slipper or blush. However, after seeing Jessica Biel's wedding photo on the sneak peak of People magazine, I couldn't help but wonder, "Why is she dressed as a cupcake?". My other thoughts were on the classic episode of "Friends" when Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) has to wear a pink nightmare-of-a-bridesmaid gown and Chandlar calls her Princess Bubblegum.
According to People, the bride turned to longtime friend and designer, Giambattista Valli. “I was really comfortable talking to him about something really important like this,” says the actress, 30.
Ultimately, Valli created a custom petal-pink strapless gown of silk mousseline and silk organza with a light-pink floral motif that “was whimsical and dramatic,” says Biel. Her wedding look also included a heartfelt detail: Her floor-length veil was adorned with pearls from her grandmother’s wedding day tiara. How romantic. That is a beautiful touch!
I am excited to see to see the other photos which hit the newstand on Friday. However, there is something about the cover that I just don't understand. Why in the world would People magazine feature an article about Britney Spears on the same wedding cover of her-ex boyfriend Justin Timberlake? How tacky. Especially when the trial is releasing sad details about how their breakup was the cause of her downward spiral. Jessica Biel will always have to see her face when she looks back at this beautiful spread. It was a bad choice (and speaking of bad choice, the other taglines on the cover are just as bad. A cover will sell itself, it really didn't need all the graffiti).
A lot of celebrity brides have chosen pink hues as their go-to wedding gown choices and some are beautiful! There are a couple of my favorites..
{oh Zac Posen, this was a beyond beautiful dress on Portia}

15-year-old model Ondria Hardin hasn't been working as a model for long, but she's already stirred up a considerable amount of controversy surrounding her young age.
When she was just 14, she walked at the Marc Jacobs show during New York Fashion Week, which violated the new '16 or over' CFDA Health Initiative. Several months later, she graced the cover of Vogue China during the launch of their Health Initiative which also follows the '16 or over' rule.
After her age was discovered and made public, Vogue issued an apology for violating their own new rules. Now, Ondria has been enlisted at the age of 15 to star in Chanel's Spring/Summer 2013 campaign alongside veteran Stella Tennant. Karl Lagerfeld comments that Ondria looks older than her age: “She doesn’t look 15, she looks 18 or 19.”

This is what I picture Jessica Biel's wedding gown to look like. Beautiful, classy, and tastefully simple. I'm thinking up-do or pulled back gently with a long simple veil down her back, but not over the shoulders? I am beyond excited to see the beautiful wedding photoshoot spread in People magazine (website, Wednesday or see the debut Friday on newstands).
