Kim Kardashian Is Engaged to Kris Humphries!

http://www.greatnewmovies.com/wp-content/uploads/Kris-Humphries-Joins-Kim-Kardashian-on-Keeping-Up-with-the-Kardashians%E2%80%99.jpg

It was a dream come true for Kim Kardashian when she walked into her Beverly Hills home May 18. Her boyfriend of six months, New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries, was waiting in her bedroom on bended knee with four words written in red rose petals: "WILL YOU MARRY ME?"

"I didn't expect this at all," Kardashian, 30, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview (out Friday) of the romantic, surprise proposal. "I was in such shock. I never thought it would happen at home, and I never thought now."

Humphries popped the question with a custom-designed, 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond sparkler. "I just knew I wanted it to be big," says Humphries, 26, who, with the help of Kardashian's mom Kris Jenner, planned an intimate family celebration later that evening.

"Kris really didn't want a big celebration, but he had jokingly told my mom he'd be fine if there were mini-horses there," says Kardashian with a laugh. "Later that night at the party, my mom brought out two mini-horses, covered in glitter, for us! It was hysterical!"

Brody Won't Be Attending Kristin's Wedding

http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/fp/Kristin+Cavallari+Something+Borrowed+Los+Angeles+7wMOfZnlzgRl.jpgTalk about a reality snub -- Kristin Cavallari won't be sharing her big day with her former 'Hills' co-stars. The 'Laguna Beach' bred beauty plans to tie the knot with fiance, Jay Cutler, next spring but is already axing former BFs and BFFs from her guest list, according to E! Online.

Who won't be making the cut? Brody Jenner, Justin Bobby, Whitney Port, Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag can all count themselves among the snubbed. But why so harsh when it comes to her exes? Cavallari told E's Ryan Seacrest that her relationships with both Jenner and Bobby were fake. But one ex who can count himself among the lucky few who will see the blond bombshell walk down the aisle is 'Laguna Beach' boyfriend, Stephen Coletti.

"We're really good friends," she said of Coletti who is now dating Disney and 'Dancing with the Stars' darling, Chelsea Kane.

But no word yet as to whether the two Cavallari beaus, Cutler and Coletti, will become bros -- they "haven't met yet," she said.

Audrina Patridge and Stephanie Pratt can also count themselves in on the invite list, as long as they promise to leave the cameras at the door. When it comes to your average over-exposed, reality celeb wedding, Cavallari is saying no way.

"Jay hates all that stuff," she said.

Will The Hills Be Invited To Kristin's Wedding?

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/41200-which-hills-stars-are-invited-to-kristin-cavallaris-wedding/1305653901_hills-290.jpgDon't expect to see a full-on Hills reunion when Kristin Cavallari weds Chicago Bears player Jay Cutler next spring.

During an interview with Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show on Tuesday, the 24-year-old reality star said she's planning a "big wedding" -- but some of her former costars may not make the final guest list.

"It either has to be really small, like 40 people, or big, like 400 people. No happy medium!" she said. "Jay has to invite the entire Bears team, and that's a lot of people right there."

While Laguna Beach's Stephen Colletti will score an invite ("He was my high school boyfriend, but now we're really good friends," Cavallari says), her on-screen fling Justin "Bobby" Brescia won't be as lucky.

"It's not that I don't like him, but I haven't talked to him since we finished The Hills," Cavallari explained. "That was a fake relationship."

According to the newly engaged star, former costars Lauren Conrad, Brody Jenner, Lo Bosworth and Whitney Port won't be in attendance, either.

As for Heidi Montag? "She changed her number; I can't get a hold of her," Cavallari explained, adding that Spencer Pratt comes as "package deal."

Still, Cavallari added that Stephanie Pratt and Audrina Patridge may get to see her walk down the aisle -- if only to meet some of 28-year-old Cutler's teammates.

Kristin Cavallari Talks About Her New Shoe

http://www.ology.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/post-image/kristin_cavallari.jpgKristin Cavallari may be known for being reality TV's resident mean girl, but she's more focused on the things she's really passionate about -- like being a wife, working behind the scenes and giving back. The 24-year-old, newly engaged Hills alum has teamed up with Shoedazzle.com to create a custom-designed shoe for charity. The flirty, pink platform wedges, named "Bardot," are on sale now for a great cause! One hundred percent of the proceeds go to Kristin's charity, OneKid OneWorld.

Kristin took the time to chat with Ology about her soon-to-be hubby Jay Cutler, the "reality" of television, and of course, her adorable new wedges.

First of all, congrats on the engagement! Do you have a wedding date set?

No. I mean, we're still in the very, very early stages. But my guess is it will be next spring.

How did you get involved with ShoeDazzle?

Let's see, I think it was last summer when I had my first design meeting, but they do this thing every month or every couple months with a new celebrity where they donate a huge chunk of the proceeds to their charity. So I was actually in Kenya in March with my charity helping rebuild schools and [saw] where all my money is going. I thought this would be a great way to raise money for my charity.

You're charity is "One Kid One World." Can you tell us about that?

What we do is we help rebuild schools in Kenya and El Salvador and we bring them school supplies, soccer balls, we pay for their teachers' salaries. We sponsor kids over in Kenya, so we pay for their education and uniforms for some of the schools.

Your shoe design is adorable. It's very girly. What made you go with that design?

Thanks! Well, I wanted to do something that I wear and I love wedges. Wedges are obviously very popular in the spring and summer. And I wanted to do a fun color because it's my first shoe and I wanted to make a statement. So I chose that really pretty fuchsia color because I thought it was great for spring and it is very girly and pretty.

Will we see you return to TV anytime soon?

I'm in the middle of casting a reality show that I'm going to produce, which I'll be on an episode or two, but as far as my own show or anything, no.

Hef Is "Very Fortunate" To Have Crystal Harris

http://www.rightcelebrity.com/wp-content/photos/Crystal_harris.jpgHugh Hefner is happier than he has even been thanks to his fiancee Crystal Harris.

The 85-year-old Playboy founder will marry the 24-year-old blonde beauty at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles on June 18 and Hugh - who has been married twice before - insists Crystal is the only woman for him.

He said: "I'm devoted to her. This is as happy a time in my life as I've ever had. I feel very fortunate."

For Hugh, having a happy home life is especially important as he admits he had a strict upbringing and sought comfort in movies when he was a child.

He told Total Film magazine: "I grew up in the 30s and 40s. 'Frankenstein', 'The Bride of Frankenstein', I loved them. 'King Kong' was my favourite.

"I didn't exactly come from a home full of hugs and kisses.

"It was a typical conservative, puritan home and I was quite a solitary child, a bit of a dreamer. Movies showed me another world and sparked a desire in me."

Inside Kristin Cavallari's Wedding Plans

http://www.celebritysentry.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/1297889411-39.jpgDon't expect a Hills wedding for Kristin Cavallari and her NFL quarterback fiancé Jay Cutler. The reality starlet will most likely say "I do" in the Windy City.

"It seems like it's going to be in Chicago, because that seems to make the most sense since both of our families are there," Cavallari, 24, tells PEOPLE. "My mom is there and his family is in Indiana."

As for timing, “We’re planning to get married next spring," she says while also admitting that the guest list is still up in the air.

"I'm trying to decide between a really small, intimate wedding or a huge, blowout party-type wedding," Cavallari says, addressing whether or not any of her former Hills or Laguna Beach castmates might be included on the big day.

"If I have a big wedding, then yes, some will be invited," she says. "If I have a small, intimate wedding, it will probably just be family and really close friends."

Meanwhile, Cavallari has been busy coming up with ideas for her big day.

"I've been ripping out a lot of papers from Bride magazine," she says. "I'm going to start meeting with wedding planners in the next couple of weeks."

Cavallari, who wants to walk down the aisle in a Monique Lhuillier gown, hasn't selected her fancy footwear yet, but she doesn't rule out the possibility of designing the shoes herself.

With her own ShoeDazzle line (a large portion of whose proceeds go to her charity, One Kid One World), Cavallari is often asked if she'll craft the footwear for her big day. "It's actually a good idea," she says, adding that the style she just designed makes for "the perfect summer shoe."

"I wanted to make a fun statement, so I picked this really pretty fuchsia color," she says of the $40 wears. "It's really girlie and cute."

Kristin Cavallari & Jay Cutler: Love at First Sight

http://feratri.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Jay-Cutler-Kristin-Cavallari-Getting-Married.jpgKristin Cavallari had been dating Jay Cutler for less than a year when the Chicago Bears quarterback popped the question in April – but Cavallari says the proposal felt like it was a long time coming.

"I think we both knew from the moment we met that we wanted to marry each other," the former Hills star, 24, tells PEOPLE. "It's been a great situation."

And it doesn't hurt that her family is a fan of Cutler, 27, who proposed during a romantic getaway to Mexico.

"My parents are both extremely happy," she says. "There's been no drama, which is good."

Cavallari – who has been portrayed as the typical blonde California beach babe on TV – is even planning to permanently trade her bikinis and flip-flops for snow boots once she and Cutler tie the knot.

"I will relocate to Chicago," she says. "I want us to be together. I don't want to be one of those married couples where one person is on the West Coast, and the other is somewhere else. I do want some normalcy in my life. I want to be a wife."

As for raising a family? It's in the cards.

"We definitely want kids," the ShoeDazzle designer says. "As far as right away, probably not. But definitely in the next few years."

Hugh Hefner & Crystal Harris: No Gifts Please!

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40931-hugh-hefner-fiancee-crystal-harris-no-wedding-gifts-please/1304693187_hugh-crystal-290.jpgIt's just a few weeks until Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris tie the knot -- all the details are set, and the wedding invitations have been sent out.

But rather than heading to Bed Bath and Beyond to create a registry, the couple has asked their 300 guests to make donations to select charities in lieu of gifts.

"It was actually Crystal's suggestion and I thought it was a great idea," the Playboy founder tells Us Weekly. "The point of it is, we don't need gifts. A lot of people are in need and the notion of giving to charity instead of giving gifts to us just made sense."

The charities that Hefner, 85, and Harris, 24, chose include Children of the Night, an L.A.-based foundation that's dedicated to ending child prostitution; charity: water, a non-profit that aims to provide clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations; and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. "No child is denied treatment, and it's a wonderful organization," Hefner adds.

The bride- and groom-to-be are "expecting a full house" for their wedding, due to take place at the (where else?) the Playboy mansion in L.A. on June 18. As for wedding-day jitters, Hefner jokes, "We’re waiting for responses to our invitations. If we don’t get enough responses, we won’t get married!"

But The Girls Next Door star is "very excited" about the big day. "Crystal is wonderful and she's done a really terrific job so far with all the planning. She is the one for me!"

Hugh Hefner & Crystal Harris' Wedding Invitation

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2011/news/110516/hugh-hefner-300.jpgIt's getting down to the wire for Hugh Hefner and his fiancée Crystal Harris, who will wed on June 18 at the Playboy Mansion.

The Playboy founder, 85, announced on Tuesday that his and Harris's wedding invitations have gone out, and friends and family have already started receiving them.

"Crystal Harris and Hugh M. Hefner request the pleasure of your company at the celebration of their marriage," the invite that Hefner Tweeted read.

And when it came to how the invitations would look, Harris took the reins.

"Crystal pretty much designed the invitations the way that she likes it," Playboy publicist Kellie Olisky tells PEOPLE. "She had this idea and we found this company who will help us out and they have been great. Papeterie is custom-making everything. Hef picked the paper; Crystal picked the colors."

Although the invite appears to look relatively simple, it's part of the bigger event.

"We have added little fuchsia and turquoise Swarovski crystals on the invitations, which are really pretty," Harris, 25, told PEOPLE. "And we are going to have fuchsia and turquoise flowers at the wedding, so it will all come together really nicely."

Prince William & Princess Kate Middleton First Kisses

Prince William & Princess Kate Middleton First Kisses
Were you up in time to catch the Royal Wedding? Princess Kate Middleton became the Duchess of Cambridge Friday as the world watched her tie the knot with Britain’s Prince William in a traditional ceremony at London’s Westminster Abbey. Wearing a stunnng ivory gown, complete with dipped neckline, the Duchess shared not one—but two—kisses with her Duke on the balcony of Buckingham Palace shortly after the conclusion of the 11 AM wedding ceremony.

Now on to the dress! Kate selected a design by Sarah Burton, protege of late fashionisto Alexander McQueen, for her big day. The dress is made of ivory and white satin gazar with lace applique floral detail, insiders say. In a statement Friday, St James’s Palace said McQueen was chosen for the “beauty of its craftsmanship” and its “respect for traditional workmanship and the technical construction of clothing”.

Burton, creative director of McQueen, says crafting the royal wedding gown has been the highlight of her career.

“It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every moment of it. It was such an incredible honour to be asked, and I am so proud of what we and the Alexander McQueen team have created.”

Kate worked closely with Burton to design the frock, which looks shockingly similar to the one actress-turned-princess Grace Kelly wore when she married Prince Rainier of Monaco back in 1956.



Prince William and Kate Middleton leave London's Westminster Abbey on Friday


Prince William and Catherine Middleton wed at London's Westminster Abbey on Friday, April 29, in front of a select gathering. The wedding was viewed over TV by millions across the world.

Following their wedding they became Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as earlier in the day, The Queen had conferred the Dukedom on Prince William of Wales.

William was dressed in the uniform as a Colonel of the Irish Guards, in Guard of Honor Order with a Forage Cap. He wore a gold and crimson sash, and gold sword slings, both of which are worn in the presence of a Member of the Royal Family. The Prince did not wear a sword.

The uniform was fitted by Kashket and Partners.

Catherine, 29, arrived at the Abbey in a Burgundy and black colored Rolls Royce accompanied by her father.

She wore a wedding dress designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. The long-sleeve lace, ivory and satin gown, with a V neckline had a voluminous skirt that echoed an opening flower, with white satin gazar arches and pleats. The train measured 2m 70cm.

The ivory satin bodice of the dress was narrowed at the waist and padded at the hips, drawing on the Victorian tradition of corsetry and a hallmark of Alexander McQueen's designs.

William, 28, vowed, "I, William Arthur Philip Louis, take thee, Catherine Elizabeth, to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse. For richer, for poorer. In sickness and in health. To love and to cherish, till death us do part."

He then slipped a wedding ring, fashioned from a piece of Welsh gold that The Queen gave to him shortly after his engagement, on Middleton's finger, saying, "With this ring, I thee wed."

Prince William's Best Man Prince Harry carried the ring made by Wartshki to Westminster Abbey.

As per the couple's wish, there was only one ring.

The couple said a prayer they wrote themselves.

"God our Father, we thank you for our families; for the love that we share and for the joy of our marriage.

In the busyness of each day keep our eyes fixed on what is real and important in life and help us to be generous with our time and love and energy.

Strengthened by our union help us to serve and comfort those who suffer. We ask this in the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Amen. "

As is the Royal tradition, the couple didn't kiss immediately after being pronounced man and wife. The kiss was to come later.

Following the wedding, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge rode a carriage from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace.

After arriving at the Palace, the couple stepped out onto the balcony as crowds surged towards Buckingham Palace to view their first public kiss following their royal wedding.

The couple were joined on the balcony by the Royal family. At 1:25 pm, William lightly kissed his new bride on the lips as fans below and viewers around the world held their breath and savored the fairy-tale setting. Cheered on by fans, William kissed Catherine a second time letting the kiss linger a little longer.

Kate Middleton and Prince William MarriageAfter months of waiting, William and Kate finally tied the knot at Westminster Abbey today. She arrived clutching the hand of her father Michael as her sister and maid of honour Pippa held the long train on her flowing dress. As the happy couple exchanged vows, William appeared to have trouble slipping the ring onto Kate’s finger. An estimated one million people lined the streets to catch a glimpse of them. Britain’s Prince William and Kate Middleton married at Westminster Abbey on Friday in a royal occasion of dazzling pomp and pageantry that has attracted a huge global audience and injected new life into the monarchy.Before the vows, a veiled Middleton, the first “commoner” to marry a prince in close proximity to the throne in more than 350 years, walked slowly through the 1,900-strong congregation to the swirling strains of Charles Parry’s “I Was Glad”.As they met at the altar William whispered to her, prompting a smile at the start of the ceremony. The Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams declared the couple married with the words: “I pronounce that they be man and wife together.”Middleton’s dress, the subject of fevered speculation for months in the fashion press, was a traditional ivory silk and satin outfit with a lace applique and long train.

HUGE CROWDS
Thousands of people from around the world were outside the abbey, many of them camping overnight for the best view of the future king and queen and fuelling the feel-good factor that has briefly lifted Britain from its economic gloom.Kate Middleton Prince William Marriage Pictures
“People watching this at home must think we’re completely mad, but there’s just no comparison,” said 58-year-old Denise Mill from southern England. “I just had to be here.”The crowd entered into the festive spirit on a chilly day by wearing national flags and even fake wedding dresses and tiaras. Hundreds of police officers, some armed, dotted the royal routes in a major security operation.Tens of thousands more people crammed the flag-lined streets of London to catch a glimpse of marching military bands in black bearskin hats, cavalrymen in shining breastplates and ornate carriages that will carry royal figures from the service.A large gathering is expected outside the queen’s London residence, Buckingham Palace, to cheer on the married couple as they appear on the balcony for a much-anticipated public kiss.For some, however, the biggest royal wedding since Diana married Prince Charles in 1981 was an event to avoid, reflecting divided opinion about the monarchy.”It’s just a wedding,” said 25-year-old Ivan Smith. “Everyone is going mad about it. I couldn’t care less.”Prince William Marriage Pictures

Jessica Simpson: My Wedding Date Is Set!

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40657-jessica-simpson-my-wedding-date-is-set/1303927861_simpson-johnson-290.jpgShe may not have found a wedding dress yet, but Jessica Simpson can cross another important item off her to-do list: setting her wedding date!

"I'm still trying to figure out what to wear! I don't know if I want the big boom, or the curvy thing, but it will be something beautiful," the Style Icon of the Year said at Us Weekly's Hot Hollywood party at L.A's Eden on Tuesday. "I kind of have a couple ideas in my head, and I have a date; I'm really excited!"

Engaged to former NFL player and Yale grad Eric Johnson, 33, since November, the 30-year-old singer -- clad in an Etro dress and Giuseppe Zanotti shoes -- told Us she isn't worried about slimming down before the big day.

"I just have to work out on my own. There is no regimen I need to follow. There's no diet I need to follow. I just need to do some things for myself and that's it. And that will make me feel the happiest," the once-divorced star said. "No exercise is fun! I am going to dance around my bedroom and hopefully lose some weight -- and lift some weights and do what I can!"

LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian Are Married!

http://img2.timeinc.net/people/i/2011/news/110110/eddie-cibrian-240.jpgIt's official: Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes are husband and wife!

"LeAnn and Eddie were happily married today surrounded by their closest family and friends," the bride's spokesman, Rhett Usry, confirms exclusively to PEOPLE. "They thank everyone for their well wishes."

Country star Rimes, 28, wore a Reem Acra gown as she and actor Cibrian, 37, exchanged personalized vows on Friday in front of about than 40 guests, including Cibrian's sons Mason, 7, and Jake, 4, from his previous marriage.

The couple had led friends and family to believe that they'd been invited to an engagement party, but surprised the guests by tying the knot at the intimate ceremony held at a private home in California.

"I'm looking forward to settling down," Rimes recently told PEOPLE of her impending nuptials. "Settling into our life."

The couple got engaged in December when Cibrian proposed with a 5-carat diamond ring from jeweler Brent Polacheck, who also crafted their wedding bands.

Jessica Simpson Loves Being a Businesswoman

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40515-style-icon-jessica-simpson-i-love-being-a-businesswoman/1303419454_jessica-290.jpgJessica Simpson and fiance Eric Johnson were recently snapped at a slew of boutiques in London and Paris. A wedding dress hunt? Nope! Simpson -- Us Weekly's Style Icon of the Year, who heads her own wildly successful fashion line -- was "inspiration shopping for the collection," the superstar, 30, tells Us exclusively in the new issue. "I have the best job in the world!"

Simpson's labor of love has paid off: The Jessica Simpson brand has raked in $750 million in 35 countries!

And the singer, actress and reality star is completely hands-on with the creation of her chic but affordable line. "I'm in the workroom in [L.A.'s] Westwood a few times a week from 11 to 7 at night," she tells Us.

"Nothing goes out without me seeing it or my mom [Tina Simpson, cocreative director] seeing it," Simpson explains.

Working with Mama Tina, she says, is ideal -- and brutally honest! "We really know so much about each other and share so much," she says. "And we keep everything extremely truthful. If I walked in wearing something she didn't like, she would tell me. And I would tell her! Like, 'What the hell are you wearing?'"

Part of her current fashion success means a break from Simpson's Hollywood career, she admits. "This year, I've taken time for myself to enjoy being engaged and in love and being a businesswoman instead of an entertainer,"she says. "It's really helped the collection!"

About that engagement....

"I'm still trying to figure out what we're going to do about all of the plans," she says, adding that she be be "involved" in designing her gown.

"We have four dates floating around...It's going to end up being big!"

Hugh Hefner: 'Everything's in Place' for Wedding

http://www.usmagazine.com/uploads/assets/articles/40175-hugh-hefner-everything-is-in-place-for-my-wedding/1302285496_hugh-crystal-290.jpgWhile some playboys get cold feet when it comes to matrimony, Hugh Hefner tells Us Weekly he's not worried about marrying centerfold Crystal Harris this summer.

"I'm not nervous at all, I'm excited," says the Playboy founder, who celebrated his 85th birthday with a Casablanca-themed bash last weekend. "June is a big month -- Crystal and I will be in London opening a new club, then we'll come back and get married at the mansion! It's going to be a very special year. It's the Chinese year of the rabbit, so the bunny is back!"

While Harris, 24, has made most of the arrangements, Hefner says she does ask for his input, and is a "relaxed" bride-to-be.

"Everything is in place," he says. "She's wonderful and she's done a really terrific job so far with all the planning. She is the one for me!"

And the Girls Next Door star had nothing but good things to say about ex-girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson, who's competing on this season's Dancing With the Stars.

"I have absolutely been watching. And voting!" Hefner tells Us. "I call in. And I've been telling others to vote for her as well. I think she's doing great. There's nothing fake about Kendra. She's a very special lady."

Jessica S: I'll Wear A Low-Cut Wedding Dress

Jessica Simpson: I'll Wear a Low-Cut Wedding DressJessica Simpson may be a fashion mogul, but she's still at work on her most important look yet: her wedding dress.

"It's definitely going to be beautiful," the singer, who is engaged to former NFL player Eric Johnson, tells PEOPLE. "I want it to be different from what I've had before. I have a lot of tear sheets!"

Still, Simpson – who says she'd love to have a "Carrie Bradshaw moment" trying on lots of gowns – often gravitates toward v-neck or scoop necks, which flatter her physique and help her avoid looking "top heavy."

Besides, "I like my collar bone," adds Simpson, 30. "I have a long neck, so I like to show off my décolletage."

As for the color, "I haven't really thought about it," Simpson confesses. But, "I do like the romantic feel of a lighter color."

While she focuses on her dress, Simpson's bridesmaids will be busy choosing their own ensembles. "I definitely would want all my bridesmaids to be in everything different," says the bride-to-be. "Just [to reflect] what their personalities are.”

For now, though, with so many of the plans still up in the air, Simpson doesn't even know when the nuptials will take place – or where.

"It’ll definitely be somewhere warm!" she says. "Once I get what I want my dress to look like. We'll set a date."

Kim Kardashian Reveals Future Wedding Plans

http://www.lifeandstylemag.com/2011/04/12/1117Cover.jpgAlthough they've been dating for only five months, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries have quickly fallen head over heels in love! "Kris just gets me," the reality star told Life & Style at the April 4 launch party for Unbreakable, the unisex fragrance from her sister Khloé and Khloé's husband, Lamar Odom.

In fact, the couple are already talking engagement rings, wedding plans -- and even what they'll name their children! "I want Lorraine to design me a big diamond ring," Kim gushed to friend Brittny Gastineau at the Beverly Hills Nail Design on April 10. Kim was describing the engagement ring she wants jewelry designer Lorraine Schwartz, her longtime pal, to create for her! A friend tells Life & Style, "Her idol is Elizabeth Taylor, who was a good friend of Lorraine's, so she wants to take inspiration from one of Elizabeth's prized possessions: her famous cushion-cut Krupp diamond. Kim's been talking to Lorraine about it a lot lately."

And Kim tells Life & Style that she's fantasized about her wedding ever since she was a little girl. "I've envisioned the whole thing," Kim tells Life & Style. "I can't wait to get married. I've found my wedding dress -- I mean, I already know what my gown is going to look like. I've thought about it all for so long. What woman hasn't thought about her wedding since she was a little girl?" Kim plans to take a trip to Paris to shop for a Chanel couture wedding gown, the friend reveals to Life & Style. Her dream dress? "She wants a white strapless floor-length gown that's traditional but sexy and makes her feel like a princess," says the pal.

Kris and Kim -- who both come from families in which the kids' names all begin with the letter K -- have already discussed what they're going to name their children. "I think I'll name my kids with K's to keep the tradition going," Kim says. She even has a favorite name picked out for a baby boy, the friend reveals: Kristopher Jr., named after the man she plans to marry.

Holly Madison Won't Attend Hef's Wedding

"I think Holly Madison has expressed publicly that it would be a little strange if she was there and I respect that," the Playboy founder told PEOPLE at his 85th birthday party at Las Vegas's Palms Casino Resort.

As portrayed on E!'s Girls Next Door, Madison hoped to marry Hefner but eventually moved on and relocated to Las Vegas. Hefner, meanwhile, moved on to 24-year-old Crystal Harris, whom he will wed on June 18. The feud between Madison and Harris has been well documented.

As for Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt, the two other women who costarred with Madison, they are invited, despite Wilkinson's recent claims that she has yet to receive a "Save The Date" card from the couple.

"She knows she's invited," Hefner said. "The invitations haven't gone out yet."

Hefner, himself, is a little surprised that he's taking another trip down the aisle.

"I never expected to get married again," said the previously twice-married Hefner. "But the reality is I can't see myself with anybody else, and I just want to give the relationship that kind of formal statement. I think Crystal deserves it. I love happy endings."
