This is, given the fact that the chill will give way to a lot of lace and fur and accessorization which otherwise would be a closed chapter given the heat of the summers. While the bride need not worry about carrying that awfully heavy wedding dress full with additions and accessories which they would really dread in the summer season, options of doing their dresses with various heavy fabrics like satin, lace and fur gives a lot of space to experiment too!

As of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, global standards followed the Western tradition of a bride dressed in white or off-white, with a head-covering, whether a veil or head-piece, and carrying flowers or some other object. The bride would be recognized by her dress, and it could be regarded as bad luck to be married in anything but white.

Like every aspect in Victorian society, great expectations were placed upon weddings. In fact, during this time frame, several guidebooks for weddings were referred to, one of these books was “Our Deportment: On the Manners and Conduct and Dress of the Most Refined Society” by John H. Young. Many traditions regarding weddings first took place during the Victorian Age and are still followed today.
It was a beautiful Saturday morning on January 6. The winter air was crisp and the view was amazing. The soft salty scent from the ocean filled the air. Off the balcony on the second story of the Long Beach Yacht Club I could see the light swells of the Pacific Ocean. The small crashing of waves added to the peaceful instrumental background sounds as the ceremony was about to begin. January 6, my wedding date, was a day that changed the rest of my life.
Consider the season of year of clothing. For instance, pastel-colored lace or wide lace with fluffy eyelets goes more with spring or summer garments and not winter clothes.
The biggest difference between summer and winter is the climate. One of the main attractions of summer is the warm weather. I like being outside on a bright sunny day, and letting the sun warm my body. I also like that we get an occasional thunder storm. The excitement fills the air when I see the thunder clouds rolling in. The sound of thunder, and the lighting shows that come from the storms are fascinating. On the other hand winter i...
Christmas is the most popular holiday in all of the land. Mostly everyone loves Christmas. There are three categories of Christmas people. Number one; the haters. They despise Christmas and think it is the devil and nothing good comes from lying to children and giving gifts for absolutely no reason at all. Number two; the average person. The ones who just buy the gifts, wear the holiday sweaters, and go to the annual Christmas gathering at Grandma’s where gifts and laughs are exchanged. Number three; the die hard Santa’s of the group. The few mothers or fathers who decorate the day after Halloween to get into the Christmas spirit. The tree is up on November first and the Christmas lights are hung all year round. They make sure to go black friday shopping to get everyone a gift, even cousin Nicholas, who is three times removed. Christmas is

Winter is a season for us to stay mostly inside the comfort of our homes. At this point, we make use of our talent especially around the kitchen. Yes, it is colder outside in order for us to stay warm we may need to feed ourselves for extra calories. For us to warm our bodies up, nothing is more satisfying on a brisk wintry day than a hearty hot bowl of soup.

As I skim through the Chadwick’s mail-order catalog, I come across a woman, who looks as if she is in her mid-thirties, standing outside on the snow-covered ground. Her gloved hand is arched back in a ready-to-throw position with a snowball resting in her palm. The woman is wearing a ¾ length gray wool coat and black leather gloves, which catches my eye. The serene, white-topped leaves of the pine trees lean in different directions, waiting for spring to arrive. “Winter is a breeze if you buy this coat” is the message I receive from this friendly-gestured woman. This warm, easy feeling especially comes into play during the holiday season when we buy gifts for our friends and family.
Many little girls dream of their big fairytale wedding with a prince charming of their own. We all have watched and grown up with the classic Disney movies that not only entertain children, but are influenced by what we see.

“Marriage is not a noun; it’s a verb. It isn’t something you get. It’s something you do. It’s the way you love your partner every day”, states Barbara De Angelis. Unfortunately, love is not always the main reason for weddings today. Wedding ceremonies have turned into who can have the biggest and best wedding. Today’s weddings place more emphasis on the dress or dresses, the food, the venue, and the decorations instead of the meaning of the ceremony. Therefore, some weddings can cost more than buying a house. Media and television shows have a big impact on the amount of money spent on modern day weddings. There are television programs that promote competition between couples to see who has the best wedding. The values of a wedding ceremony are beginning to change from being thankful for what you have to pure greed and showmanship. This is due in part to advancements in social media. Traditionally, children have learned values or morals from their parents, teachers, or religious/spiritual leaders. So, values have always been passed down through the generations in order to continue family traditions, etc. However, social media now plays a very large role in teaching values to children. Children are being influenced more by television shows, commercial, and movies than by prominent figures in their lives. One
