Let’s face it: Getting out of your home in the morning is hard. Even the most savvy morning person has to strategize in order to effectively use their time in the early hours of the day. If you’re trying to work out before heading to the office, you don’t need any obstacles standing in the way of you getting out that door. You already have a gym bag packed and your outfit picked out, but what else can you do to make sure to get to class on time?

Here’s a list of smart strategies to shave some time off your morning routine.

Use dry shampoo the night before
Dry shampoo is the ultimate time-saver after your favorite yoga class, but using a little extra the night before can help you get to that yoga class with time to spare. Spray hair with dry shampoo before bed, and then style hair into a braid or bun that is comfortable enough to sleep in. When you wake up in the morning you’ll be ready for class without having to do any hairstyling. After your workout, spray a little more dry shampoo, brush or shake the braid out with your fingers, and be prepared to have the most perfect waves for the rest of the day.

Multitask in the shower
It would be lovely if we had all the time in the world to relax in our morning shower. Truth? Most of us are out in 10 minutes or less, especially if you have a line of people behind you at the studio. The good news? You can make your shower work for you with all the great new moisturizers that are specifically made for wet skin. Now there’s no need to wait until you’re dry to moisturize your skin.

Decrease hair drying time
If you shower after a workout, one of the only things standing in the way of getting you from workout to work quickly is hair drying time. Fortunately, there are a few items you can toss in your workout bag made for precisely that issue.

Goody Quikstyle Paddle Brush

This brush has microfiber bristles that absorb water from your hair, helping with drying time. It also has side vents to allow air flow from the blow dryer while the microfiber helps soak up the water. The microfiber is antimicrobial, so just toss it in your gym bag without worrying about germs.

Luxe hair towel

Dry hair fast without the friction of cotton towels you’ll find in most locker rooms. This ultra-absorbent hair towel is super gentle and speeds up your drying time, making your hair healthier in the long run.

Take your greens on the go
Grab-and-go food can be a lifesaver if you’re trying to get out the door in the morning. Try keeping fruits like bananas on hand, which you can grab as you’re running out and are great for workout recovery. Not everyone has time to make a nutrient-rich smoothie in the blender before they leave, but anybody has time to mix powder in a water bottle. If protein powders aren$t your thing, try some of the new green juice solutions in powder form.

Hum Nutrition Raw Beauty Powder

This probiotic-packed powder tastes great when mixed with water or your favorite almond milk. It’s perfect for an energy boost before or after your workout, and the chocolate mint flavor will satisfy any sweet tooth.
Buy it now: Hum Nutrition, $39

8 Greens

If Alka-Seltzer and green juice had a baby, this would be it. Drop the effervescent tablet into your water bottle and watch it dissolve into refreshing green juice in seconds. The eight greens it’s named after are kale, spirulina, spinach, blue green algae, chlorella, wheatgrass, barley grass and aloe vera, yet it is a shockingly light and tasty beverage to start your morning with.

Create an early morning support group
Making pals in your early morning classes creates accountability. You definitely don’t want to be the person who ditches Pilates in the morning when you have people on your side who want to see you there. Just one more reason to exchange numbers with the other regulars you see in class.

Hot mama! Blac Chyna took to the street’s of Los Angeles on Tuesday to flaunt her growing baby bump in a tight blue dress — and flash that 7-carat engagement ring. Even though Chyna has yet to reveal the sex of her baby with fiancé Rob Kardashian, we can’t help but wonder if the bride-to-be’s dress choice is any indication that these two might be having a boy… Maybe? Only time will tell!

The future Mrs. Angela Kardashian, who has been filming her upcoming E! reality series Rob & Chyna, donned a form-fitting, knee-length bright blue dress for her stroll around L.A., People reports, pairing the ensemble with flat T-strap sandals and a few blingy accessories — including that rock of an engagement ring.

Just the night before this outing, Chyna, 28, and Rob, 29, bonded with his sisters at Khloé Kardashian’s 32nd birthday and took ALL the selfies, natch. At the birthday party, the engaged parents-to-be were surrounded by Kim Kardashian West, Kourtney, Kylie Jenner, and mom Kris Jenner along with their closest family and friends.

“The girls have really come around since Rob and Chyna first got together,” a Kardashian source told People. “They’re trying to be as supportive as possible, especially now that she is pregnant.” Adding, “They’ve seen the transformation Rob has made,” the source said. “Just a year or two ago, none of them could get him to even leave the house, and now he’s happily celebrating Khloé’s birthday out in public.”

This striking blue outfit seems to be very much in-line with Chyna’s maternity style. The engaged mom-to-be hit the red carpet with her fiancé May 28 at the Sky Beach Club at the Tropicana Las Vegas wearing a white midi dress that showed off her growing baby bump. And, as always, that solitaire platinum engagement ring.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star proposed to Chyna in April — just 10 weeks after they took their relationship public — and in May, the couple announced they were expecting a baby. This is the first child for the sole Kardashian son and the second for Chyna, who shares 3-year old son King Cairo with Tyga, Kylie Jenner’s on-again boyfriend.

Dreaming of a designer-curated wedding? Your wish is our command! Kelly Wearstler, the ultrachic L.A. interior designer, has pulled together all of the elements of a seriously chic wedding for us to fawn over — and for you to steal! Consider yourselves lucky: She’s an elegance expert, after all, having decorated homes for celebs like Cameron Diaz and Gwen Stefani, designed the interiors of Viceroy resorts in Anguilla and Palm Springs, created invitations for Paperless Post, and seasonal collections of lighting, bedding, and rugs. (Phew!) Now she can add one more thing to her résumé with the launch of her new bridal registry at KellyWearstler.com, which features perfect product recommendations and curated style categories, easy access for your guests to shop your wishlist, and access to an ultra-exclusive one-on-one design consultation with Kelly herself. See? Told ya she’s an expert! Wearstler’s current wedding inspiration? Desert Glam — and we can already feel the heat…

The head of the global lifestyle brand gave us the exclusive deets on her foray into bridal registry and we couldn’t think of a more perfect match other than, well, you and your hubby! “We want to be a place where couples can find great-looking, quality pieces,” Wearstler told BRIDES. “An incredible dining table is so much more meaningful than the everyday stuff.” We couldn’t agree more! But before you and your soon-to-be spouse gather around that dining table, you can’t forget about your reception table. And with the help of Wearstler, it’s sure to be super stylish with this über-glamorous desert vibe.

“I love that juxtaposition of rawness and refinement,” muses Wearstler. To capture that beautifully barren atmosphere, start with an effortlessly elegant wedding invitation suite. “We selected a paper that was very raw in hand but then you have the refinement and the delicate nature of the graphics and the metallic,” Wearstler noted of this naturally luxe invite, a piece from her Paperless Post collection.

As for your day-of bridal style, a pair of unexpected lace-up ankle boots and an easy, breezy tulle gown as hot as a desert heatwave are both on our wish list. Don’t forget to grab a bushel of desert-inspired blooms for that walk down the aisle. Pop in a show-stopping King Protea and you’ll be the undisputed queen of the desert.

After the “I dos,” dine on dinnerware fit for Sahara royalty. The animalistic striping on these Kelly Wearstler plates are the definition of safari chic. And don’t forget to set the mood with lighting that glows with the setting desert sun. “Light, I think, is so critical and it can just make a space so beautiful,” says Wearstler. This metallic statement pendant everything.

After a slice of wedding cake (“Always chocolate,” according to Wearstler!), your guests will be ready to dance the night away — to Sting’s “Desert Rose,” of course!

Looking for a simple-yet-striking way to decorate your wedding ceremony? Consider an oversize picture frame. Plain or ornate, a giant frame-turned-ceremony-backdrop is a clever way to create a focal point in your ceremony space — plus it ensures that your vow exchange is a total work of art (think of all the Instagrams!). Check out these six creative, beautiful ways to incorporate a frame into your wedding ceremony setting.

Modern and Minimal (above): This crisp-white frame serves as an eye-catching backdrop for this couple’s Texas wedding.

Ceremony Frame Half-Filled with Flowers: Decorate an oversize antique frame with elegantly draped linens and fresh flowers.

Flower-Filled Frame: Or, you could take it to the next level by filling an oversize frame entirely with flowers, like fluffy white hydrangeas and blush-pink roses.

Floating Horizontal Frame: When your wedding ceremony space is as lush and pretty as this couple’s, an unadorned floating-frame backdrop turns the setting into a work of art.

Floral Frame: Instead of a typical ceremony arch, this couple requested a unique flower-embellished frame as their wedding backdrop.

Framed Fabric Backdrop: Add a shot of color and whimsy to your ceremony setting by framing a piece of your favorite patterned fabric.

Whether you’re the kind of person who loves to plan parties or someone who practically breaks out in hives when it comes to making any type of decision, when it comes to planning a wedding, there’s no doubt that having a team of people to turn to for advice and help will make the process a way more enjoyable and stress-free experience. That is, only if you know how to delegate. Between relying on your own mom for wedding planning help, and handing out tasks to your bridesmaids, your future mother-in-law might feel a little left out of the process. Our solution? Let her eagerness dissipate your stress. If you have a ready- and willing-to-help mother of the groom, here are eight simple ways you can include her in your wedding planning process.

1. Give Her Specific Tasks
Chances are the mother of the groom is going to text you, call you, stop by in person and ask how she can help out with any and all things relating to the wedding. Instead of having her take on some tasks you’d prefer to do yourself, give her a list of things she can take ownership of and make her own, so she doesn’t accidentally (or purposely) step on your toes.

2. Ask Her to Come Along With You
Heading to a cake tasting or dress fitting? Give the mother of the groom a ring and invite her to come along with you. Just including her in little things like this will be almost gigantic things for her.

3. Put Her in Charge
If you’re dealing with a very type-A mother of the groom, the best way to handle her is to put her in charge whenever you need a break from making decisions. Say you can’t decide between three different photographers, let her make the final choice. Giving her doses of power like this will help make her feel involved.

4. Let Her Know Your Non-Negotiables
Some mothers of the groom like to plan things and make wedding decisions for you, without you. If there are certain things you absolutely want control over, let her know what they are so she has a heads up that she shouldn’t step on your toes.

5. Pull in a Detail From Her Wedding
One of the nicest things you can do is include a detail, item, or tradition in your wedding from her own big day. Maybe you can use framed photos from her wedding or even serve the main dish that she had at her reception.

6. Let Her Pick Out Her Dress
You may want to keep control over what your bridesmaids wear, but let the mother of the groom pick out her own dress. There’s nothing better than a supportive mother of the groom wearing a dress in which she feels ultra confident.

Jen Glantz is a “Professional Bridesmaid” and the founder of Bridesmaid for Hire. She’s the author of All My Friends Are Engaged and frequently wears old bridesmaid dresses to the grocery store and on first dates.

Tulum is the honeymoon you’ve always dreamt about—white sand, brilliant turquoise water (just cool enough to be refreshing but warm enough to not shock your system), and abundant perfect palm trees. It’s charmingly rustic, but still has mouthwateringly fantastic dining. And with such picturesque environs to explore, it’s a no-brainer for a romance filled island getaway!

Day one:
Afternoon: Once you land at the Cancun airport, on Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula, it’s a one-and-a-half hour drive to Tulum. Check into a colorful seaside bungalow—complete with hammock—at Zamas and you can have the area’s very best margarita in your hand within minutes. You made it to Mexico, so relax on a lounge chair and just enjoy where you are. Or grab a beach cruiser and check out the strip. For a superluxe stay, try the popular all-suite Be Tulum, with its sand-side infinity pool and treetop yoga shala.

Evening: Since Tulum faces the Caribbean to the east, sunsets are not as easy to catch. The upstairs level of Mateo’s, home of the coco loco cocktail—a boozy coconut-y rum drink—is the place to watch the sky change colors. One of the best dinners in town can be had at Posada Margherita, where you can shop a well-curated boutique with a glass of wine while awaiting a table within reach of the beach. The menu is simple and small: a few homemade pastas, prawns and fish dishes. It’s impossible to go wrong, but make sure you don’t fill up on the bread crate of multiple fresh focaccias, chunks of parmesan and marinated cauliflower, which is hands-down incredible. Zamas has a guest-chef program and live music most nights, making it another excellent dinner choice.

Day two:
Morning: Start the day with a fresh coconut and avocado toast, or something equally fresh and tasty. You can’t visit the area without experiencing its cenotes—freshwater limestone caves in the jungle that were sacred to the Mayans and are unquestionably spectacular. It’s best to book a tour—snorkeling or, if you’re comfortable, scuba diving—in which a local guides you through the crystalline water, ducking under stalactites and swimming over stalagmites and past limestone columns. Dos Ojos is a nearby destination with two cenotes; Pet Cemetery is stunning and less busy.

Afternoon: Relax, take a walk down the beach or warm up in the sun (the water in the cenotes is quite icy). If you haven’t made a reservation in advance for dinner at Hartwood, go between 3 and 6 p.m. to lock in your table for the evening.

Evening: Hartwood is a must-have dinner experience for all Tulum travelers. It’s a 100 percent sustainable restaurant that cooks its locally spear-hunted fish, and produce from communal organic Mayan farms, over an open fire and in a wood-burning oven. The menu is ever-evolving based on what’s in season and available, but with such care put into the collection and preparation of the dishes you’re essentially guaranteed a magical night. Afterward continue on to the jungle-chic bar Gitano for well-crafted cocktails such as the sweet-and-spicy Kisses in the Car, featuring mezcal, passion fruit, tangerine and habanero.

Day three:
Morning: As much as the beach may beckon, the famous Mayan ruins with their pyramids, Coba and Chichen Itza, are also spectacular sights to experience. Because they’re such a huge draw for tourists, early morning visits are most peaceful.

Afternoon: Enjoy a lazy lunch of guacamole, bright bruschetta and grilled octopus at Hemingway Restaurant, part of a beachfront eco-resort. Colorful pillows and dishes, clear views of the rolling waves, and great margaritas make it a place you’ll want to spend hours. Soak in the enchanting atmosphere further during an opulent indigenous treatment at Coqui Coqui, a resort and spa that makes its own lush fragrances.

Evening: If it’s a Sunday night, head to La Zebra for salsa lessons and a night of close, sweaty dancing. Or, if you’re heading back to Cancun, make a stop inland on the way for a last bite: a few al pastor tacos at Taqueria el Carboncito, the hands-down best place for the savory pork and pineapple staple.

Fashion designer Katie Fong met husband-to-be Owen Biglin at Manhattan’s Public House shortly after Hurricane Sandy devastated the area. Katie, who lived in Connecticut, was in town for a visit, while Owen was staying at a nearby hotel because his apartment had flooded in the storm. After few happy hour specials and some friendly conversation between their groups of friends, the two realized they had completely hit it off. In January of 2015, Owen popped the question while walking with Katie through Grand Central Station. “Everyone around us was clapping and congratulating us. It was so sweet, simple, and such a surprise everything I had ever wanted for a proposal,” Katie says.

On September 26, 2015, Katie and Owen invited 210 guests to take part in the couple’s ceremony and reception in the bride’s hometown of Greenwich. With plans to start a family there, the bride and groom wanted to tie the knot in church that they could call home for the rest of their lives, which they found in Second Congregational Church. And when it came to their reception venue, Katie knew just where to look: She recalled memories of fishing with her father each Sunday and passing by the Indian Harbor Yacht Club, her dream venue. Read on to see their stunning fall day overlooking the Long Island Sound, as captured by Kevin Kelley Photography.

As a designer who regularly works on custom gowns for clients, Katie knew from the start that she wanted to create her own wedding dress. Thanks to her partnership with a local bridal salon, the fashion-savvy bride still had the experience of trying on dresses, which helped her determine what style worked best for her body. “It’s something every bride must do!” she says.

In the end, she stuck to her original plan of creating something custom and decided on a fit-and-flare wedding dress with a Chantilly lace illusion top and alencon lace detailing. “When my maid of honor saw it during my first fitting, she broke out in tears and I did too,” Katie says.

Owen teamed up with one of Katie’s bridesmaids, jewelry designer Andrea Del Bello, to create earrings made with crystal quartz, moonstone, and sapphires for the bride to wear down the aisle.

Owen wasn’t the only one to design some accessories for the big day. Katie worked with a local jeweler to create a pair of sterling silver cufflinks for Owen that were engraved with the couple’s wedding date and monogram. He paired the thoughtful gift with a custom navy suit, Paul Stuart shirt, bowtie, and loafers.

Bridesmaids wore navy lace pencil dresses lined in white silk charmeuse from Katie’s own collection. The bride also gifted her attendants rectangular crystal earrings. Owen’s groomsmen paired khaki pants with white button down shirts and navy jackets.

Before their wedding ceremony, the bride and groom took part in a traditional Chinese tea ceremony. There, Katie wore an old fashioned “kwa,” a two pieced embroidered satin outfit, while Owen donned a requisite navy embroidered top.

Katie and Owen served tea to their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles during the ceremony. In return, they receive red envelopes that represented good luck. The bride also received one more special token during the ceremony: Her mother gave her a jade necklace that Katie’s late grandmother had chosen for her to wear during the meaningful tradition.

With help from their reverend, the pair decided on a 45-minute-long ceremony that included classic vows and scripture readings. An organist played Canon in D while the bride made her way down the aisle, carrying a breathtaking bouquet of white mini calla lilies, roses, dahlias, Israeli ruscus, and seeded eucalyptus.

“Owen was raised Catholic and was used to the idea of a two-hour long ceremony, while I was raised Protestant and thought we should have a ten-minute long ceremony,” Katie says. “Settling on this ceremony instead was perfect. We kept everything modern with certain word choices.”

The reception décor was kept simple at this wedding, with white and navy linens used to top the tables and Chinoiserie pots as centerpieces. Guests snacked on hors d’oeuvres ranging from white truffle mac & cheese to lobster quesadillas before exploring the “summer dip” station, the “tea sandwich” station, and the two raw bars where everything from oysters and clams to shrimp cocktail were served up. They also sipped on “His” signature cocktail, the Dark & Stormy, or “Hers,” the Moscow Mule.

Once inside, guests watched as the newlyweds shared their first dance to Ray LaMontage’s “You Are The Best Thing.”

The couple’s tiered dessert consisted of layers of vanilla wedding cake with hazelnut filling and key lime cake (the groom’s favorite!). Katie and Owen chose a statement basket weave detail for the frosting and decorated the entire sweet treat with hydrangeas and Italian ruscus.

Mr. and Mrs. Biglin drove off as husband and wife in Katie’s late grandmother’s vintage Jaguar, closing the day with a meaningful touch. “Though it can be very stressful, enjoy every second of it,” the bride tells future couples. “All the crazy planning will be so worth it in the end!”

Did you love this wedding? Then check out another couple’s Connecticut celebration in the video below.

Attending a wedding is a big commitment. Even if you’re not traveling for a few days to be with the happy couple, you’re still devoting almost an entire day to their celebration (not including the time you’ll spend getting gussied up to attend!). So if you have other things on your schedule, can you attend just the ceremony but not the reception — or vice versa? Here’s what our experts have to say.

While the reception is definitely the fun part of any wedding, the ceremony is the moment that really matters — that is when the couple actually gets married, after all!

If your schedule prevents you from staying for the entire celebration, but you still want to be there to witness the “I dos,” be sure to include that information in your RSVP so that the couple knows you’ll be attending, but that they don’t need to save you a seat at dinner. You don’t need to give a detailed explanation of your plans, but a brief note stating that you’ll be there for the ceremony but aren’t able to party with them after will suffice. And of course, since you will be attending the ceremony, you should remember to send a wedding gift!

The no-no, however, is skipping the ceremony and going straight to the party. You’ve been invited to be a part of an important moment in this couple’s lives, and it would be rude to only show up for the food, booze, and dancing.

If you really won’t be able to attend the ceremony, due to your work schedule or another conflict, get in touch with the couple before sending in your RSVP. Let them know that you won’t be able to make the ceremony, and ask (yes, ask!) if they would mind if you still joined them for the reception. Be prepared for them to say no!

And that rumor that you don’t need to attend the ceremony if you have a history with one half of the couple (i.e. the groom is your ex)? Forget it! If you two are close enough for you to get a wedding invite in the first place, it’s an invite to the whole shebang.

After suffering quite a rough patch, it seems that Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian are well on their way to making amends with the reality TV star’s family. The Kardashians, understandably upset over Rob’s handling of his engagement announcement (trust us people, do NOT share your engagement on Instagram before telling your family first!), recently aired an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians that showed all of the sisters’ reactions to the sudden news. Let’s just say, Kourtney’s major side-eye said it all.

But after the drama finally dissipated and and all was said and done, it really does look like the pair is on MUCH better terms with the KUWTK clan. The proof? Khloé’s incredible Dave & Buster’s 32nd birthday bash which was joined not only by all of the sisters and Kris Jenner, but also Blac Chyna and Rob! And after a mass of joyous Instagram’s were posted with the notoriously shady bro and his pregnant fiancée, it’s safe to say Blac Chyna (or should we say Angela Kardashian?!) is being welcomed into the fam with open arms.

With a party full of candy, Jell-O shots, and every game imaginable, how could they all not get along>? Even Kim, the Kardashian who started it all, was seen getting close to Rob’s sweetheart as they danced and played air hockey together. The birthday girl also couldn’t help being her goofy self around the soon-to-be newlyweds, in an adorable photo booth pic posted to Instagram. But what really got us excited was a photo of the bride with her future mother-in-law, which sported the caption, “So much fun with Mama @krisjenner”.

D’awww!

We want to say that we hope this family bliss lasts until Rob’s big day, but knowing the Kardashian clan that’s practically impossible. So for now, we’ll just look at everyone’s happy faces and smile… until the next blow up!

Walking down the aisle on your wedding day, is of course one of the biggest moments of your life! But gone are the days of making a big impression with just the front of your
wedding dress. Sure, everyone may watch you walk down the aisle — but it’s your back they’ll be looking at most during the ceremony. So you better make sure your dress screams “wow” from the back! Here, 6 wedding dresses that look even better from the back.

A daring scoop-plunge backline adds a sexy touch to Katie May’s chic Barcelona dress (above), highlighted with peek-a-boo French Chantilly lace trim in the scoop for a bit of romance. Coupled with a chiffon fabric, the look really flatters all of the assets — and we’re not just talking your back!

This bohemian beauty of a dress is complemented with a naked mesh back and delicate floral embroidery. Attached to loose sleeves and an even looser skirt, it’s perfect for the free spirit. Romantic and whimsical, Elise Hameau’s Iris dress takes on full effect when paired with short hair or an updo.

We can’t get enough of this back triangle cut-out and the backdrop it provides for the collar’s playful tassels. The open shape mirrors the geometric printed lace that comprises Grace Loves Lace’s Soho dress, providing a beautiful and modern twist for the trendy bride.

A large bow perched at the bottom of the back and top of the derriere adds a fun and feminine element to this otherwise classic Carolina Herrera number. Paired with a show-stopping sophisticated train, the look is simple but stylish.

Soft tulle butterfly sleeves adorned with hand-beaded embellishments drape over the shoulders for a vintage and dreamy look in Anna Campbell’s Adelaide dress. Wear this ethereal beauty, and you’ll certainly feel like a bridal goddess saying your “I dos” at the altar.

A sheer back accentuated with baroque-inspired embroidery combines the best of a jaw-dropping back and beautiful details. Rich fabric and a tight silhouette with a flared train streamline this alluring look while adding a dash of flair.
