She 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!"

Jessica 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!"

Jessica 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."
