Bridesmaids Dresses!

The bridesmaids are ordering infinity dresses from a designer I found on Etsy. Originally I found this style of dress here at Two Birds Bridesmaid, fell in love with it and since they did not have the color I was looking for, I found a designer that could make them for us in whatever color we wanted (and even at a cheaper price!) The most amazing part about this dress is that the sleeves are really long pieces of fabric that you can tie in an infinite amount of ways to create totally different looks! I think that it's the perfect way to give each bridesmaid a little bit of individual choice of how they want to style their own look on the big day.

Also, the dresses are going to be in a dark forest green, I'm so very excited for them to be finished :)

And so the Dress Hunt Begins!

Today it all came together -- 

oh my gosh, I'm getting married, I'm picking out dresses, they're so big and pretty and white!!!

I went with a fabulous entourage! My amazing mother, and some beautiful bridesmaids (!) - Joselyn, Aggie & Diana! They were super helpful (especially when I was a foot taller than most of the boutique staff!) We had fun, we laughed, we 'wowed' and we fell in love with dresses, and most of the time parts of dresses :) There's still more looking to do! 

The one I really fell in love with, isn't pictured here... because you never know it might be the one! But enjoy the fun pics and leave a comment! <3

My Challenge for 2011

No, it won't be graduating nursing school, it will be finding an open back dress as pretty as these:

No matter how hard I look, it is very difficult to find open back/ low back dresses. Maybe I am using the wrong search terms, but on most sites, the cut of the back isn't usually an option. That's a super bummer for me, because it's basically the only thing I'm going off of here! It's the one thing, I've found I really like! Hopefully, I will find the perfect dress, AND pull off this style! (I'll leave the rest of the dress up to the professionals!)
