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!!

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

(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.

Details in the devil. Will it be an outdoors event? If so, please do avoid satin. You will die from heat. Is it at night?

Which one are you leaning towards? I think you already know which one you want.

I don't vote for the black gown.

If you buy number one or two, you *have* to wear your hair up. Could you get one or two in black, and not red? You would look stellar in black. Oh, wait: I know you do, for a fact.

I. love. #1. I think I want that dress... mmmmm.

However, the others may know better what looks good on -you-.
