Director-actor Ed Burns gave his fans and Twitter followers a glimpse into the message behind Tiffany & Co.'s "What Makes Love True?" campaign. On Wednesday afternoon, the "Will You Marry Me?" director sat down with StyleList for a Twitter chat, and opened up about everything from his burgeoning relationship with Tiffany's, to his professed love for Woody Allen. Here are some of our favorite moments:

Tiffany & Co.: When asked how he got into the romance-centered film project, Burns noted: "I've been shopping at Tiffany for years [...] it just made sense." He also tapped the famed brand for wife Christy Turlington's engagement ring.

"Will You Marry Me?,": Burns loved working with the real-life couples seen in the film, and "hearing their stories which were fun, romantic, and beautiful." The short film is also "a real-world continuation" of his recent film "Newlyweds."

New York City: The seasoned director found his New York couples through the normal casting process, but his subjects and their stories were so compelling, perhaps because they hail from New York City. Burns -- borrowing from "The Great Gatsby" -- remarked that New York City is full of "wild promise."

"Breakfast at Tiffany's": Burns came down hard on this one, saying that the classic film "shouldn't be touched."

What Makes Love True? In response to the question everyone wanted to know, Burns said: "True love is finding someone you know you care about more than yourself, you can laugh with, grow with, change with."

So what makes love true to you? Let us know in the comments section below.

There are two things that every girl wishes for: to receive an exquisitely wrapped Tiffany Blue box, and to find true love. While Tiffany & Co. originated the former, the company is now turning towards "matters of the heart:" this spring's "True Love Grows" campaign celebrated love's beginnings, by featuring model Louise Pedersen and actor Robert Buckley as glowing newlyweds.

In the next chapter of its campaign -- "What Makes Love True?" -- Tiffany & Co. explores love that is as classic and timeless as its pastel blue packaging. And what better company to undertake such an endeavor than the jewelry empire?

As a lifestyle guide to amour, "What Makes Love True" explores everything from the soundtrack (Joshua Radin, Cat Power), to suggestions for romantic nooks in New York City. Another highlight: "Will You Marry Me," a short film by actor-director Ed Burns that showcases witty and relatable proposal stories from New York couples.

With the island of Manhattan as its setting, and Burns as its storyteller, "Will You Marry Me?" gives a glimpse into the couples' first encounter and engagement ring details. From shots of the Manhattan skyline, to tender moments between these couples, Ed Burns reminds us why New York City will always be the epicenter of true love.

You've got your hands full. Planning a wedding gets overwhelming pretty quick, and every stop means a new sample, brochure or logo-covered can cozy. It adds up, and you need a place to put it -- a stylish place to put it.

Kipling understands. They're great at offering a shoulder for support. Wait, flip that. Reverse it. They're great at offering awesome bags for YOUR shoulder to support. Still, that's the kind of understanding we can get behind.

The Abbot Cross-Body Drawstring Bag from Kipling is brilliant in red nylon with cotton and leather trim, a sturdy top carry handle and an adjustable/detachable shoulder strap. It's perfect for lugging around your growing collection of florist magnets, DJ discs and cake-scented key chains.

Also, it makes a great bag to carry around on the honeymoon (and all points before, between and after). See, Kipling gets it.

The thing to remember about your wedding is that it is your wedding. People tend to forget that. One of the best ways to remind everyone of this fact is to customize and label EVERYTHING. That will show them whose special day it is.

Okay, that's a bit drastic and hopefully unnecessary, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't consider a customized version of some wedding staples.

The Gartermaker gets it. They make custom wedding garters, dress labels and ring pillows, not to mention a few other personalized wedding accessories. And the products have YOU written all over them (or not, you decide).

One lucky Aisledash.com reader won a gift certificate from The Gartermaker and they'll be able to create the wedding garter, dress label or ring pillow of their choice (assuming said choice is under sixty bucks, don't be greedy). And that one lucky Aisledash.com reader is Patty Gay! Congrats, Patty.

You can learn more about The Gartermaker on Facebook (Aisledash, too!) and Twitter (us again!).

Cosabella, Sassybax, DuMi

Sassybax Very Bare, $78, sassybax.com
It may seem to defy the laws of gravity, but this backless, strapless wonder can actually accommodate up to a DD cup, so even well-endowed brides can don a low-back dress. Thanks to strategically placed silicone adhesive inside the top and bottom of the cups and on side tabs, this bra won't move an inch.

Taupe Contouring Bra Cami by DuMi, $68.00, edressme.com

Spanx Bra-Cha-Cha Strapless Bra, $68, spanx.com
The stay-put support you need to dance the night away in a strapless gown without having to worry about any unexpected peepshows. The cups are satiny smooth and engineered with a no-slip strip in the back so nothing will budge.


Leonisa Bustier Minimizer Vest in Lace, $54.99, leonisa.com
