Oiselle Runaway Bride Running Wedding Dress: Cool or Not?

Leta Shy — Wed, 04 May 2011 16:42:14 PDT

You want your personality to shine when it's your wedding, and if you're a fitness fanatic, chances are that can mean incorporating details into your day that show your love of healthy living, whether it's a prewedding bridal party hike or a menu chock-full of organic options during the reception.

But for running brides who want to make a statement, there's the Oiselle Runaway Bride wedding dress ($1,756). The short dress is made of performance, moisture-wicking material - perfect for the bride who wants to run a 10k before she walks down the aisle - and includes details that are must haves for your wedding day: a ring pocket, a bouquet holder, and a fuel belt that's hidden to keep your ensemble looking picture perfect.

For such a simple dress, the price seems a little expensive, but it does include in-person fittings and consultations at Oiselle's design headquarters in Seattle (and at less than $2,000 may even be considered affordable in the wedding dress realm).

I love the idea of the perfect dress for a nontraditional wedding that incorporates a couple's love of fitness, but what do you think? Is this wedding dress a good idea, or is the price tag too steep?

Will You Watch the Dance Moms Spinoff?

Natasha Dantzig — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 03:15:34 PST

Welcome to Miami! Like most reality shows, the runaway ratings hit Dance Moms on Lifetime has seen its share of drama. The original follows instructor Abby Lee Miller, the girls' fiercely competitive instructor, as she tells it like it is - little girls' and their mothers' feelings notwithstanding. Like its predecessor, Toddlers and Tiaras, Dance Moms has proven to be as much about the conflicts and personalities of the don't-call-them-stage-moms stage moms as it is about actual dance (hence the title).

Much of show's controversy has centered on Miller's very demanding teaching style. She is very up front about the fact that she does not baby these girls and expects complete and utter focus and determination - bellyaches, schoolwork, and other kid stuff is irrelevant in her world. Berating both mother and child is a part of the job.

The spinoff takes the wildly successful franchise down South, to the slightly more TV-friendly locale of Miami, FL - the original is filmed in Pittsburgh, PA - to follow two new teachers and a new crop of eager pupils. Maybe the warmer climate will mean a mellower crowd? Let's hope not: that wouldn't make for very good TV now, would it?

Will you tune in for Dance Moms: Miami?

See Blair in a Wedding Dress in Gossip Girl's Midseason Return!

Shannon Vestal — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 10:30:49 PST

Despite what happens between Chuck and Blair on Gossip Girl's midseason finale, the pictures from the upcoming return episode on Jan. 16 show Blair trying on a wedding dress for what I assume are her nuptials to Louis. We had a peek at a runaway bride Blair in a different-looking wedding dress a few months ago, but these pictures offer another side to the story of Blair's uncertain wedding. In them, Blair is trying on a dress in a salon (notably, with no visible baby bump), accompanied by designer Vera Wang and Dan. The other photos are interesting too, such as one that shows Chuck quite well after that scary car crash. Check them out and weigh in with what you think will happen when the show returns later this month.

Do You Display Amaryllis During the Holidays?

Elka Karl — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 05:00:29 PST

Of all the traditional holiday florals - paperwhites, Christmas cactus, and holly to name but a few - amaryllis are my runaway favorite. One of the reasons I adore them is that you can force them to bloom year after year, so that $10 bulb you bought can turn into a great investment if you care for it properly.

And while you can buy amaryllis in the traditional red, there are plenty of other colors, from lightly striped pink and white flowers to some pretty mint greens, too. My amaryllis is fully flowering now, and I have another one set to start blooming soon. Are you an amaryllis fan as well?

George Clooney Earns, Then Donates His Big Speaker's Fee

Allie Merriam — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 07:21:55 PST

George Clooney headed out to Sydney's Star City Casino yesterday afternoon. He arrived Down Under Sunday in order to speak during a leadership conference alongside Martha Stewart, Russell Simmons, and microlending pioneer Muhammad Yunus, and the actor's expected to leave the country today. Admirers could pay $1,000 to lunch with George Clooney yesterday and hear him speak about his work to bring attention to political crises in Africa. The trip to Australia netted George $600,000, and he reportedly donated the fee to charity. His girlfriend, Stacy Keibler, meanwhile, stayed behind in LA and was seen checking out a Jay-Z and Kanye West show. Stacy tweeted that she's a big fan of Kanye's song "Runaway" in particular, since she empathizes with his lyrics about toasting haters.

Rose Curiel — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 10:30:12 PST

Burgeoning model Liam gets the chance to walk the runway on this week's 90210 but rather than head to New York or Milan, he struts his stuff on a CU catwalk. It's all part of the college's fashion designing competition, which pits rivals Holly and Naomi against one another, and has each girl pulling out all the stops to ruin her competitor's chance of winning.

Meanwhile, Annie tries to find a more legal way to earn money and Dixon faces temptations soon after leaving rehab. Find out if Dixon's able to just say no, plus much more when you keep reading

Robert Pattinson Returns to LA in Fine Form

Allie Merriam — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 10:25:48 PST

Robert Pattinson carried his own bag yesterday when he arrived at LAX. He's in California once again after spending a couple of weeks with family and friends in the UK. Robert and girlfriend Kristen Stewart were able to have some fun nights out on the town together, including an evening with their pal Tom Sturridge at a Marcus Foster concert. Kristen was busy during the days, though, completing work on her upcoming movie Snow White and the Huntsman. Robert and Kristen have been celebrating the runaway success of their latest Twilight movie, Breaking Dawn Part 1. The movie has grossed over $500 million in worldwide box office, and now the studio behind the picture, Summit, has won in the courtroom. Summit sued a company making "Bella Swan" jackets without a license, successfully claiming that the sales pitch infringed on their copyright.

Blake Lively and the Gossip Girl Gang Celebrate 100 Episodes

Allie Merriam — Sun, 20 Nov 2011 09:59:22 PST

Blake Lively wore Marchesa and posed with young actress Chloe Moretz on the red carpet in NYC last night to celebrate her series Gossip Girl making the 100 episode mark! The bash was held at Cipriani Wall Street, and many of Blake's small-screen costars like Leighton Meester, Chace Crawford, Ed Westwick, and Penn Badgley also attended. Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle did as well. The latest Gossip Girl episode was as full of drama and OMG moments as back when the show started in 2007. The Upper East Siders have come a long way since then, though, with recent pictures from the set showing Leighton's Blair Waldorf as a runaway bride! Congrats to the cast on their latest big accomplishment.
