What a cake!
Liv (the official fruit addict) loves figs.
They look so sexy and taste soooooooo….
(you know what I am talking about?)
Its really easy to make Liv happy:Simply get her a mango,
icecoffee or maybe some fresh figs.
You can top it, by showing me some sunshine.

The same crafty Lady, Emma, that I have just introduced to you in my last post,
is getting married soon and designed her own rad invitations.
Liv loves them. Cheap and cheerful!
Emma of Vintage Magpie designs stunning sparkling bouquets made from vintage jewelry and fabrics.
The great thing is you will have it forever.
Check out all her unique creations here.
(Last year for my 25th birthday I got the most beautiful bouquet of real flowers that I have saved and even moved with.
I love them so much! It has been a smart decision to keep it because I didn’t get any flowers this year for my 26th birthday.)
Anyways this girl is turning jewelry into flowers. How rad is that?

Check out their site, there is quite cool stuff on there.
Liv often gets questions about her own one-day-wedding-of-her-dreams:
What kind of dress I would wear, what location I would choose….
most of the time followed by something like
“I am sure you must have thought a lot about it.”
To be honest: No! I haven’t. I am not that kinda gal ; )
A friend once said at a party: “If I should get married I want a f*cking flamingo on my head.” - Interesting.
Alright I don’t want to disappoint you, so:
I always had the dream to live in a city by the ocean one day, so I think I would really love to get married at the beach. Perfect would be a beach (because of the amazing spirit) and city rooftop (for the incredible party) combination.
Liv is (as far as it looks like right now) not getting married in the nearer future.
If I should get engaged one day there will still be plenty of time to figure it out,
depending on the situation, budget, partner, and place I will be living.
(And maybe-baby there is still a picture in my head…)
What about you?

The dress above is one of many great costumes by Christian Lacroix for the Agrippina Opera currently shown at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden Berlin
What a stunning dramatic wedding dress this piece would make!?
I haven’t seen this opera live but I am in love with the photos and I really feel
like going to the theater soon.(it has been a while)
This one will be a great fashion inspiration. So: If you are planning a Berlin trip soon: GO!
Liv decided to do wedding dresses (and evening wear)
because I love to know that every piece I create will be worn on a very special day. With a special spirit.
I like it when cool couples are getting married. In cool little dresses (and suits).
It just makes me happy.
I want to do something for all you ladies out there that are courageous and crazy enaugh to say YES!
Did you know that the Australian Government offers a special support in relationship advice?
I learned from West Aussie Wedding that all couples applying for civil ceremony will get a DVD about Building Strong Relationships (it turned out the videos are quite crap, but the idea is a good one! Every country should do that, in a tasteful way. Hello you video artists out there!? )
When it comes to advice I am totally down with this : #1 relationship advice: read it here.
I would love to hear from you guys.
Your (love-)stories, wedding planning challenges, the dress hunting & any questions about fashion/weddings.
Liv is also doing bespoke dresses: Working with you to create the perfect dress or gown that will match your style is such a great process.
Feel free to get in touch!
Rad! JEAN PAUL GAULTIER X MELISSA - will be available in black, caramel, beige, lime and tangerine.
Nope.You wouldn’t convince me jellies are not cool, or sooo over,
or not suitable for a wedding!
After the great Heart Stilettos by Vivienne Westwood and the
coolest shoe in the world by Zaha Hadid, there will be a new designer style launching in June 2010 this time by Jean Paul Gaultier.
Liv loves melissa shoes: They are eco- and animal friendly and having a great design on a really good price.
Thats my story and I am sticking to it.
(Oh and they don’t pay me or offer me free shoes. I think they should though)
incredibly cool “engagement” rings by Maison Martin Margiela via oki-ni
…and you better have a ring ; )
Here we are, in the brave new world, where the ladies propose to their boyfriends.
I loved East Side Brides “ How to propose to your boyfriend” post.
If you haven’t read it already do it NOW here!
And then please come back here, if you got inspired because
Liv wants to suggest an incredible cool engagement ring for your boy.
Using brass and silver, the rings shown above are brushed for a worn appearance.
(alright I am biased, because I am a HUGE Margiela fan and the very hot suits on the site aren’t helping)

On February 14th the chinese Year Of The Tiger started.
Happy new year ; )
On New Year’s day itself, it is beneficial to celebrate, to be happy, to have smiling faces, and to refrain from scowling, quarreling, or criticizing anyone.
The Year Of The Tiger will be themed of LOVE it says:
Love will surely reign all the 2010 year. It will be everywhere; you will feel it with all the senses and get satisfaction from your life! It has quite a simple explanation: according to the 2010 Chinese horoscope and Chinese lunar calendar for the 2010 year of the Tiger, the 2010 New Year coincides with the 14th of February - St. Valentine’s Day. So, look around and express your feelings - this is the motto of 2010 year! Good for you if you are
planning to get married. Its also a good year for getting your
finances cleared, and it says that this year will be full of work
for everyone.
2010 horoscope is quite successful for all the Zodiac signs, yet relatively unstable. At times the financial situation of 2010 year of the Tiger will be tough, but spiritually the 2010 year will be so fruitful and positive, that money troubles will seem just trifles. This 2010 year aim at fulfilling the most cherished plans! quotes taken from here

Liv really feels she is in need of some new music.
My internet connection has been pretty slow lately so
I haven’t been able to listen to music online and realised:
I really need some new music on my computer.
But anyways. Music is a big topic for wedding planning and
unfortunately not everyone could get the great THE FLASHDANCE
to their wedding. There is a new blog dedicated to music
inspiration for weddings HI-FI Weddings. Written by Ashley who is owner of a recordstore as well. I like it so far. I guess she introduced herself to all wedding-bloggers out there!? So you maybe checked her out already ; )
So now: Whats the best new music, I should get immediately?

jewelry by UNO industries via supermarket
…is the main inspiration of my new collection.
This jewelry piece has kind of the same idea…
27 Gold or Silver Plated Magnets formed into a rubix cube or any number of wearable shapes.
Wear as a Necklace, bracelet, anklet, ring.
I have a similar piece of jewelry that I call my everything.
I can wear it as belt, bracelet, headpiece, necklace and i love it.
Jenny Holzer a striking women and artist.
I was talking about her art with a dear friend of mine today.
Liv loves her work and I spent some time to have a look at
the stunning city projections she did.
Strong words as usual. And some really got me.
You might know her quote: PROTECT ME FROM WHAT I WANT
“I feel you” is maybe one of the more positive ones matching
this wedding themed blog best ; )
“I breathe” something you should always have in mind,
when feeling overwhelmed or anxious.
Deep breathes are helping me to move on right now
and getting the exciting 2nd Blushless collection done!
Stay focused ; )

In a perfect world my head and my heart would live in peace…
This is one of the shortfim titles out of a wonderful project:
For incredible fashion inspiration check out the collaboration between
swedish fashion- and filmstudents: In a perfect world…
But for now Liv has to focus on the head.
So here you go:
Rad (bridal-) headpieces!
…or add some color part II: With bespoke wedding shoes.
(ha that kinda sounds like a pretty cheap radio ad or something)
But Liv is serious.Some of Hetty Roses bespoke and handmade shoedesigns
a kicking ass bridal shoes.
Handmade out of japanese kimono fabric, if you want to add some color.
Or the lace up petal shoe. Even in pink metallic and the lace detail on the heel
this style still seems really cool to me.

This year started pretty wild.
But I just heard the news: February is the new January ; )
Even if January was running with a million miles an hour, I will now find time to focus on the new years goals.
Today Liv wants to share the intense work of the NYC based artist couple
Ned & Aya.
Aya Rosen recently contacted me through a fashion/art networking site.
She requested my dresses for a new photographing project, she wants to do together with her husband.
I liked their artworks and projects as well as their personal story.
They met online and lived in different parts of the world, before she decided to left her old life behind and turned her online relationship into a “real” offline one. It worked out, obviously.
Don’t you think its really interesting if couples are doing art together?
Liv loves it.
They have different websites: Louchelab.com seems to be their main site, which gives a great overview and links to all different projects as well as their blogs. The Aya&Ned site is for their photography and they have done an erotic site as well.
