Say goodbye to the vintage wedding trend

Wedding trends come and go, and sometimes they seem to never fade. However, recently engaged couples can leave the idea of vintage weddings behind them and make room for the other popular inspirations to surface, according to the Huffington Post.

Even though vintage weddings bring out the beauty of an older era, it can become out dated - quickly, especially when it comes to the photos.

"Wedding photography should tell a different story each time," Robert Evans, an expert in wedding photography, told the news source. "If you buy into the recent fad, your wedding photographs will quickly become dated before their time. Every vintage wedding I see looks exactly the same, as if there is a set of directions on how to shoot it!"

Red Apple Lipstick

I recently received the cutest makeup package in the mail. It was from Red Apple Lipstick . The items were wrapped in “apple” green tissue paper and placed inside a small burlap-style drawstring pouch. The products included full-size versions of a lipstick, lip gloss, lip liner pencil and a sample lipstick with disposable lip brush. I grabbed the lip pencil first.
