| The great cover up |
 |
While a tattoo may be something proudly shown off under ordinary circumstances, brides often like to cover up their body art on the big day. Laser treatment is a long-term solution, but anyone wanting a painless, quick fix solution might like to try out The Sher System under cover cream.
Available in five shades, the make-up is also suitable for use on the face to conceal redness, blemishes and under eye shadows. The cream costs £18 on www.sher.co.uk

Brides-to-be after an inventive look for their big day should check out Rose Garden Accessories new collection. The range is inspired by Tim Burton's eagerly awaited movie Alice in Wonderland, starring Johnny Depp and Anne Hathaway. The signature piece is the Queen of Hearts Crown - a dramatic tiara with deep red Swarovski hearts and a gothic edge.
The less flamboyant will love the White Queen range which includes a choker, bracelet and earrings, all made with white pearls and crystals - perfect if you're after an elegant look. And why not let bridesmaids in on the fun too with the Wonderland Wild Flower hairpins? Available in ghostly white and hot red, they make a truly wonderful finish.
