Always a Bridesmaid
Posted on | May 30, 2012 | 18 Comments
I’m half kidding. It’s only a wee bit true because I’ve only been a bridesmaid five times. But I was Maid of Honor for four of those. And I’m about to go for my fifth Maid of Honor title. That’s right, my little sister is getting married in six weeks. Holyeffingshitwhereisthetimegoing?! I think I mentioned this event before because I designed the save the dates and the invitations (which I will share with you soon). I’m so very excited for this wedding. And my sister is a real gem so she’s letting all the bridesmaids pick whatever navy dress they like. That is my kind of bride. So, I need to get on it my friends. Here’s some dresses that caught my eye. But it can be from anywhere so let me know if you have any suggestions. And let me make this quite clear to you lovely people, it’s Georgia in July so it will be six trillion degrees. 
1. Lucienne One-Shoulder Dress in Silk Chiffon 2. Silk Georgette Draped Back Bridesmaid Dress 3. Taryn Dress in Silk Chiffon 4. Fringe Strapless Bridesmaid Dress 5. Rosalind Dress in Tricotine 6. ML Monique Lhuillier Bridesmaid Strapless Ruched Cationic Chiffon Dress 7. Aryn K Strapless Ruffle Dress 8. Shoshanna ‘Jean” Strapless Chiffon 9. Eyelet Pinwheel Dress

4, 5, 8
I am generally not a strapless girl, but those are perfection. I think it’s the navy. (Good choice, Margs!)

#4 or #5. So pretty!

I’m sort of hoping the bride to be herself will weigh in. But I may just have to order them all and see which one looks the best.

I like #4 if it were for me. I don’t have nice thighs, but I bet #8 would look great on you. I love it, but not for me.

LOVING 1 & 3. I almost bought this one today, but not the right size.

Love, love, loving numbers 1 and 3!

Pleeease let me know which one you get so we won’t be twinsies! I, too, am on the hunt!

Kudos to you for not being afraid to strut your stuff in a variety of styles!
I’m torn between one, seven and nine. (I might just buy nine for myself! Ha!) Another note on nine, I worry about that fabric in the hot southern weather.

WEEEEE! I actually love all of them so much but if I had to choose (several) it would be: 1,3,4,7 and 9. I can’t decide. They are all gorgie and will look amazeballs on you!

That was not Sal. That was Mergie but she wasn’t paying attention.

@Sal/Mergie – Hahaha. I thought mom was commenting and trying to sound like you.
Also, I guess I’ll just order them all!

Fifth Maid of Honor title? Wow. You must be an expert at this. With the dress, I think #1, #2, #3, and #4 would be stunning on you. I actually can’t choose between them. The others I’m a bit “meh” about.

I own #3, and it’s LESS than comfortable in the bust-ular area. I think #5 would be so pretty on you, and so, so, so re-wearable!

my votes are for 7 or 8, depending on the formality of the wedding. 8 is def. feeling more casual and looks like you to me. i love those dots and you could pair a cardi with that and WHAMMO date night dress. 5 is gorgeous but hello cleavage. 7 is super fun with ruffles and a little more formal than 8.
just my .02!

We think no. 1 will look the best. Love you, megs

Hot damn! Number 6 is gorgeous and potentially uber sexy. Number 8 too, but with a little more sass. So much fun to pick your own dress!
