The Perfect Cocktail Ring – YSL Arty Ring

Dolce Sposa — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 09:22:14 +0000

People say that some promises are meant to be broken. I wonder if this will be the case for me?

After I got engaged, I promised myself that I am not buying or wearing another ring ever again. Purely because I originally wanted just my beautiful cushion cut engagement ring and wedding ring to be the only rings gracing my fingers.

I have seen a lot of stunning cocktail rings and I managed to resist them all until the YSL Arty Ring came out! I have been lusting over it for the last three years and I am not sure how much longer I can resist!!

I am so in love with YSL Arty oval ring with turquoise stone. It is super sophisticated and iconic. Since my little man came in the picture, I have been telling myself to spend wisely and to be more frugal. But seeing that this is the type of ring that I can wear with absolutely anything, I think I can justify the cost!

The Yves Saint Laurent Arty Rings come in twelve different coloured stones, they are all beautiful!

Ladies, which one will you go for??

If you are having a beach wedding or a bohemian themed wedding, I think this will really make a big statement and it will surely match the whole scene effortlessly from day to night.

Top Ten Benefits of Colon Hydrotherapy by Aqualibria

Dolce Sposa — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 08:39:54 +0000

With your special day coming up, the last thing you want to worry about is getting ill, or looking less than your best on the day of your wedding. If you want to capture that bridal glow inside and out, and to look stunning in both your wedding dress and you honeymoon wear, then consider the benefits of colon detox:

Gain Energy – the rush leading up to your wedding can be exhausting and stressful. Colon hydrotherapy can help you gain energy to help you manage all of the obligations and the thousand little details you’re planning.
Enjoy a Flatter Stomach – who wouldn’t want a flatter stomach on their wedding day? A colonic hydrotherapy removes impacted materials from your colon and can actually flatten your stomach, giving your body the perfect lines you desire on your wedding day.
Improve Your Skin – you don’t want to worry about breaking out the day of your wedding, and colon detox can help reduce your chances of skin problems leading up to your important day. A colonic removes many of the toxins that lead to skin problems, giving your skin a healthy glow.
Enjoy Shiny, Vibrant Hair - by removing the toxins from your body, you’ll enjoy an improved physical appearance, including shiny, vibrant hair. Removing toxins from your body gives your body the opportunity to absorb the nutrients it needs to keep you looking your best from head to toe.
Reduce Bloating - bloating is one of those things that every woman dreads; it’s uncomfortable and can make you feel downright dowdy. Colon hydrotherapy reduces bloating, and can help you feel at your best.
Decrease the Severity of Cramps - menstrual or stress-related cramps bothering you? Colon cleansing removes impacted materials and toxins, and the soothing colon hydrotherapy treatment can help decrease the severity of cramps.
Diminish Irritation and Restlessness - the days leading up to your wedding can be trying. You’re organizing a thousand details, and it’s common to suffer irritability and restlessness if everything isn’t just right. A colonic can help reduce mood swings, and improve your mental ability to handle unexpected challenges or issues. Reduce your irritability and restlessness so you have the mental flexibility to handle whatever life throws at you.
Fewer Sleepless Nights - sleepless nights can leave you feeling tired and listless during the day, as well as leaving unsightly dark bags beneath your eyes. Colon hydrotherapy can help you sleep better, and fewer sleepless nights combined with more restful sleep improves your energy levels and prevents those dark bags from forming.
Reduce Indigestion – stress can cause a range of indigestion issues, and planning a wedding is stressful. A colonic can help reduce indigestion, and help your body absorb the nutrients you need.
Boost Your Immune System - the last thing you need when you’re preparing for your wedding is to become ill. Colon hydrotherapy can boost your immune system; by removing the toxins from your body, and making it easier for your body to absorb valuable vitamins and nutrients that keep you healthy.
