Vogue Knows?


What a bright spot annually in the world of periodicals---- the Vogue September Issue! 584 pages of fashion at the epicenter. Some good, some bad but who can pass it up? Even the ads can guide you as far as what shoes are great, what nail polish color you'll be sporting, and what silhouettes look current. (And speaking of shoes, did you know that Christian Siriano of Project Runway fame is doing a collection for Payless Shoes this fall?)

The recent volume of Vogue happiness has in the "Flash" section on page 318 a bridely bit. The fabulous Vera Wang is shown fitting the gown of Sylvana Soto-Ward who says "I always lose weight when I am excited." (hmmmmm) The piece is very interesting starting with Wang's fitting "two finger rule" for a strapless gown to a peek of that Lanvin gown, the lovely Leighton earrings and wonderful invitation.

My favorite quote of the entire article was that the bride believes that "..connection, not cost, is the way to entertain now."

True, so true.

Now about those Christian Siriano shoes............. no doubt they are FIERCE!
