Bridesmaids
When I think about what I would ultimately like to wear to my best friends wedding I think about something fabulous, but when I think about how I want her pictures to look and how gorgeous I want everything to look together, I think that maybe going with a more generic look would be best. I know that Jcrew doesn't have the best fitting clothes, but we can always get them taylored. At the end of the day it's most important for the pictures to look cohesive and god forsaken Jcrew will allow that to happen. (I wish we could make it work with Free People!) What if we picked out a fabric and color, or maybe just a color, and everyone can just order their own dress. Here are some of my favorites from Jcrew in Jalapeno and Spiced Wine, I also love the idea of wearing are own shoes in a metalic gold or silver and maybe just maybe each of us having a sash that matches the wedding dress OR of the opposite color, for example if we are wearing all purple, silk green ribbon sashes that we could buy yards of at Michaels for super cheap. Regardless, I'm loving this idea despite the slightly lame idea of buying dresses from Jcrew. What do you think?

Kate! I actually kind of like these dresses, especially in the jalapeno. This website also has a lot of dresses in the same colors with different styles:

You can also buy the dresses in extra long, etc.
And I REALLY want us all to wear our own gold shoes - can we make that a rule??
I like the 2nd jalapeno dress (shorter). I don't like the color purple for the dress, but I LOVE the purple of the ribbon you posted. And yes, you guys can wear all your own shoes/accessories/weaves, etc.
ReplyDeleteThank god, I needed a reason to update my weave!
