LOVELY IN LACE
WHATS COOKING?
White satin combined with reem-
broidered lace adds to the elegance
of this gown by Bridal Originals.
The lace trims the V-neckline and
extends to the skirt. The puffed
sleeves also have lace accents. The
hand beading adds a regal touch.
The semi-cathedral train is adorned
by a satin bow and a peplum at the
waist. The satin headband with
beading and lace flatters many hair
styles.
"This gown is a good seller. We
even have samples in plus sizes,"
says Pat Simons, manager of
Wendy's Bridal Shoppe in the Sum-
mit Place Mall. Ms. Simons notes
that the basque waist line is flatter-
ing for many women.
All chefs, new and experienced,
appreciate an organized kitchen.
This kitchen rack ensemble from
Enclume saves space and organizes
pots, pans, lids and utensils. The
racks are available in a variety of
shapes and finishes. Brass, copper,
stainless, nickel and hammered steel
are among the choices of finishes,
while the shapes are rectangular,
oval and round. The style fits in a
contemporary or country kitchen.
"They are wonderful. They take ad-
vantage of the unused ceiling space,"
says Maureen LaFleur, salesperson
at Les Saisons in Royal Oak.
