Weddings. Ugh.

[bobkitty]

As you all know, my stepdaughter is getting married next month (day after my birthday- no heavy drinking for me!). Well, I need a dress. And while I'd love to show up in something Truly Hideous ( ;) ), I figure if I'm going to the trouble of spending my money I should be able to enjoy it. So.. voting time!!

1) http://shop.store.yahoo.com/ctailor/chinhaldres.html -or-

(BEAUTIFUL, aren't they?? And for a tailor-made dress, that's pretty inexpensive. I may have to splurge Just Because)


2)http://shop.store.yahoo.com/shorline/halnecveldre.html

(inexpensive and pretty, but I'm concerned about KittyBelly)

3) http://shop.store.yahoo.com/shorline/slipdredwits.html

(see #2)


4) http://shop.store.yahoo.com/shorline/velslipdres.html

(see #2 and 3)


Color, in case you're wondering.. I'm leaning toward red or hunter green. Bridesmaids are wearing purple, and BM doesn't know what she's wearing yet but it'll probably be "plum".

And if you picked anything other than #1, should I get the additional shawl, or no? I figure it'll give me something to dig my fingernails into and hide KittyBelly...

Oh Sooooooophie? Shopping Goddess? ;)

Oh, and I'll update y'all on the job interview later..

Oh God I love #2. I don't know about for a wedding though.

At my daughter's wedding I was basically forced to wear Peach. Yes Peach. I found a 2 piece dress in a nice subtle brocade fabric but I had to change the awful gaudy buttons on it and hem it and and make it more of a straight skirt than an A line but other than that it fit right off the rack.

That's three votes for #2. Huh.

And because I am nothing more than the Eeeeevil Stepmom who has no role whatsoever in the event, and since I have yet to get any information on the wedding proceedings as far as dress code (or, really, anything else), I say I get to wear whatever the hell I want. And what I want to wear will NEVER include a butt bow. ::grin::

::trying to picture me in peach.. shuddering.. gods, I'd look *dead* if I wore peach..::
