Locks You'll Love



What bride wouldn't want long, flowing romantic tresses like these from Oscar de la Renta's Pre-Fall 2010 runway show?

From Style: That half-up, half-down style with height in the back at Oscar's pre-fall show on Monday? The soft, wispy strands to frame the face in the front? A rose for a touch of girly ornamentation? “Amy Winehouse,” Frédéric Fekkai stylist Andre Rodman said of the inspiration for the look.

I do think this brings new meaning to "if you seek Amy!"

Epic Love Story

It's a love story immortalized in one simple line "and the dish ran away with the spoon."

But why? They came from two different worlds - the dish, fine china, the spoon, flatware. They lived in two different households - the dish in the cupboard, the spoon the drawer. In the fair registry where we lay our settings, it was as unlikely a pairing as there ever was.



Or was it? As one wise fellow said, perhaps the dish recognized something familiar in the round curvature of the spoon and all she needed was an initial push down that slippery slope. That's why they ran off together. They couldn't help it. And in making that grand gesture, she risked it all for love. Oh what a dish!



So ladies if you're in the mood for love take a stroll down the aisle of Bloomingdale's Registry. Who knows, there just may be a dish and a spoon that will run away with your heart!
