Trash The Dress

trash the dress

A recent fad for newly weds is ‘trash the dress’, its when newly married couples have their photo taken as they trash the wedding dress. I think this is a fun way to mark the end of the ceremony and a good use of the dress. Thats quite easy for me to say as I got my dress for a good price but a friend of mine has recently spent £5,000 for the wedding dress. I don’t think that wil be as easy to trash without crying!

Your wedding dress is a once in a lifetime outfit, you wouldn’t wear it any other time than your wedding but you feel as though you cannot get rid of it as it is a cherished part of your special day. So why not trash the dress?

I’m going to think about doing this as I think you can have fun and get some great images, I’ve seen recent trash the dress images, like wearing the dress in a farm with wellies and my favourite is diving into a pool.

Barbie’s Wedding Dress

Barbie wedding dress

Today is Barbies Birthday and she looks great for 50, although between you and me I think she’s had some work done! I wondered about Barbie and Ken, if they are married or just living in sin. I had a look and found Barbie Bride’s.

She seems to be fond of the traditional white dress with long veil. The above image has a strapless dress and full skirt which seems to suit her figure well. After trying on many wedding dresses I’d have to admit this is one of my favorite styles, but the skirt can be a bit uncomfortable depending on the layers and weight of the material. The image below shows an imitation of the famous Vera Wang wedding dress, which is fitted with an elaborate fishtail that spills into a short train.

The first Barbie doll was released 50 years ago today and is one of the most popular children’s toy to date, approximately 3 barbie dolls are sold every second all over the world and older Barbies, if in good condition, are worth thousands. Vogue famously published an article a few years ago urging its fashion conscious readers to buy a Barbie in mint condition and hide it under their bed for a few years.
