On your wedding day, all eyes are going to be on you -- no doubt about that. But what if you really want all eyes to be on your face. Perhaps you've put a lot of work into your make-up, or maybe you're a little self conscious about your body. Either way, there's a simple solution -- earrings.

By wearing fabulously stunning earrings, everyone's gaze will automatically be drawn upward. Larger, bulkier earrings are a good choice for brides with fuller faces, while brides with petite features might want to go a slightly smaller design.

Have you ever wanted to grace the cover of a bridal magazine? One bride will get to do just that when CBS and Modern Bride announce the winner of the Modern Bride of the Year contest.

Almost 2,500 women entered the contest, and now it's down to five finalists. Antonia Van der Meer, editor of Modern Bride, says the magazine is looking for a cover-worthy bride, someone who exemplifies the modern bride.

The Early Show announces the winner today. And if you'd like to see the five finalists, take a look at the video (below) where Harry Smith, Lara Spencer and Antonia Van der Meer introduce the women and showcase five different wedding looks.

The contest winner will be featured on the December/January issue of Modern Bride magazine.

If you're planning an informal or beach wedding, a floral anklet might be just the whimsical touch you're looking for. Luckily for you, they're extremely easy to make!

You can find full instructions to create a simple anklet at Elegance in Bloom. You can choose beads and flowers in the colors that best suit your wedding. You could opt to make your own paper flowers, of course, for greater variety, or, for the string-them-together simplicity of fabric flowers. Look beyond the craft stores for supplies. If you purchase a branch of artificial fuchsia, for example, you'll have several dozen little blossoms you could use, generally for less than it would cost to purchase them individually.
