20 Breathtaking and Budget Friendly Wedding Dresses (ALL Under $1000!)

Recently I�ve been starting the week with an oggle at some of the stunning new collections for 2016, sharing the latest lovelies from top bridal designers such as Claire Pettibone, Jenny Packham and Ersa Atelier. Whilst these names and their dresses may have us all swooning, I�m all too aware that for many brides (and I was one of them) they simply break the budget.

So today�s post is all about how you can save a few pennies without scrimping on style, with 20 gorgeous gowns whose style, and price tag, makes my heart sing!�..

6 Tips for Online Lingerie Shopping

Lingerie shopping can be an intimidating experience. Buying bras, panties, shape-wear and even swimwear online can be convenient and less of a time.

Now we are going to discuss a few tips to follow while buying lingerie online

Decide what you need: Bras and panties are essential for a woman�s wardrobe. Don�t jump on the basic clothing will be better if you have high quality lingerie into your wardrobe. For instance, if you want to wear a tight T-shirt then seamless T-shirt bra would be more comfortable and provide full coverage.
Don�t expect to wear same size: As a woman, you are already aware that size of lingerie varies as per the brand. In fact, many websites provide a size chart so that you can understand what size suits you the most. Ill fitted bra can make you look lumpy under clothing or panties smaller than the size can cause irritation. There are many cup sizes available for different breasts so don�t forget to check your own size before jumping onto any conclusion.
Don�t be afraid of color: Many women confine themselves in bra colors. Trying new patterns and colors are always exciting. If you are wearing a colorful top, thick shirt, or patterned sweater you can easily try a patterned or a textured bra.
Be careful with the websites returning policy: You may be asked to return products in certain condition so read all the policy in advance if you are not sure about the size, color of any other description of the lingerie. Moreover, be careful while ordering as many sites do not have any return policy in this category, especially if we talk about panties or thong.
Consider laundry option: Many lingerie items due to their elegant construction are supposed to be hand washed. Read thoroughly to avoid any inconvenience. However, it is preferable to wash padded or wired bras by hand to make their life long. In addition, don�t forget to check the tags.
Buy in bulk: Buying lingerie in bulk is always a good idea as most of the sites usually provide huge discount on bulk purchase.

As we have gone through the dos and don�ts of online lingerie shopping you must be wondering which site is suitable to buy this essential element of women�s life though there are many lingerie sites for shopping but you must consider a new entrant as they offer good offers and services.

Micromax Canvas Doodle 4 With 6-Inch Display Available Online at Rs. 9,199

Micromax's fourth variant of the Canvas Doodle series, the Canvas Doodle 4, is now available to buy via an e-commerce website, priced at Rs. 9,199. So far, there has been no announcement beyond a teaser regarding the launch of the Micromax Canvas Doodle 4, and neither has the smartphone been listed on the company site.

The third-party e-commerce site listing of the Canvas Doodle 4 comes shortly after an established Mumbai-based retailer claimed that the handset was available to buy in India, and detailed its specifications. The retailer on Tuesday however claimed it was available at Rs. 9,499 (MRP Rs. 9,999).

(Also see: Micromax Canvas Doodle 4 vs. Micromax Canvas Doodle 3 vs. Micromax Canvas Doodle 2 vs. Micromax Canvas Doodle)

For specifications, Micromax Canvas Doodle 4 is a dual-SIM (GSM+GSM) smartphone which runs Android 5.0 Lollipop out-of-the-box. It features a 6-inch IPS display, which is the highlight of the smartphone at this price point. The handset sports a screen resolution of 540x960 pixels (contradicting the 720x1280 pixel resolution mentionedby the Mumbai retailer).

It is powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core MediaTek (MTK6582M) processor coupled with 1GB of RAM. It comes with 8GB of inbuilt storage with no details about expandable storage support. It sports an 8-megapixel autofocus rear camera with LED flash, while there is a secondary 2-megapixel fixed-focus front camera also on board. The smartphone packs a 3000mAh battery and measures 165.5x85.3x8.5mm. It also includes light, gravity, and proximity sensors.

Much like its predecessors, the Micromax Canvas Doodle 4 is also expected to come with stylus support; though the eBay India listing has no mention of stylus on the handset.

It's worth noting that Micromax India on Tuesday teased the Canvas Doodle 4 launch tipping that the company might launch the handset soon. To recall, Micromax launched the first Canvas Doodle handset back in 2013 priced at Rs. 12,999 while theCanvas Doodle 2 was also launched in the same year and was priced at Rs. 19,990. The last Canvas Doodle 3 smartphone was launched last year at Rs. 8,500.
