And the Celebrity Bride Wore...

Temperley London was the choice for model-turned actress and fashion designer Milla Jovovich when she wed British film director Paul Anderson. The dress, called The Long Muse, is from the Temperley London Bridal Collection with the artwork embellishment inspired by Art Deco and made with metal cording, perspex components and delicate crystals and beads in shades of silver, white and lovely lime. She finished off the look with an intricate woven headpiece.




The back of Jovovich's gown featured a low cut key-hole, which added a dash of sexiness

We've always been a fan of Temperley London's gorgeous pieces so I thought I'd share with you a few of my fave pieces from the current bridal collection. Visit www.temperleylondon.com to have a squiz.

Golden Tootsies

I think if Dorothy was living in 2009 gone would be her red sequined sparklers that became famous in The Wizard of Oz. I'm almost certain she'd choose these shiny gold numbers from Christian Louboutin. The t-bar is ever so classic and makes for a perfect shoe when dancing is on the cards. Will you wear these again? Most certainly. Will you want to take them off? Most certainly not! Visit www.net-a-porter.com to buy online, visit www.christianlouboutin.com to view the entire collection or if you're in Australia call or visit David Jones in Bourke St, Melbourne, Elizabeth St, Sydney, and Queen's Plaza in Brisbane.

Marchesa Magic

One of my favourite labels EVER would have to be Marchesa. Their pieces are simply exquisite and are often seen on the likes of Natalie Portman, Jessica Alba, Olivia Wilde, Nicole Richie and many other hotter than hot celebrities. Most recently Mark Wahlberg's wife, Rhea Durham, wore a completely amazing Marchesa gown at their wedding. Absolutely perfect! I'm loving Marchesa's new Cruise 2009 collection. Such beautifully constructed, grecian inspired pieces with embellishments in the most gorgeous shades of gold. I especially love the lolly coloured pieces. Wouldn't they just make the most perfect bridesmaids dresses? And... I'll promise you this; they will wear them again! Visit www.marchesa.com to view all the collections.
