Another Random Assortment of Dresses Have I loved.

It's bridal, it's bri-dal ti-i-ime. I said it's bridal time, that's why we call it bridal time.

For your feasting (and vicarious living through my process) pleasure:




How do I love this dress, let me count the ways... No, it is too much, let me sum up: slight ruffle, good boob coverage, cute band/flower/waist-defining thing. And look at that, she seems to have a peacock thing going on. Hmmm. I saved this on 10/31/09. I was so ahead of my time.



Pretty sure I saved this because I thought I could rock that hairdo, but now that I'm seeing the dress again, my god, I am in love with it. Not the big sleeves, necessarily, nor the colors (which I like, just not in the peacock/blackwatch tartan vein), but the satin shine and the sash... freaking gorgeous.




This is a one-of-a-kind being sold in the used dress section of Once Wed and I it even though I not a huge fan of layered ruffles like that. Love love love. The top is a perfect shape, I think. There are more photos on Oncewed.com if you got to Used Dresses area and search for 'beige blue custom' I think it will come up.




Dear Santa, please bring me this dress, and the life that goes with it. I've been a very good girl. Love, Amber.

It's maybe too Fifties to pull off for old-timey, but other than that it's a dream dress. Seriously, God's perfect dress in my universe of dress pleasures. Via Etsy.com, if I'm not mistaken.




I've a fondness for the straight/A-line skirt, with some kind of fancy/feminine top. Not sure exactly how to pull it off, though.





Totally not me, but I love it anyway. Appeals to my Kindergarten self, with the butterfly wings and the fairy princess play and all that.





Not sure why I saved this one. The fabric reminds me of the suit my mom wore when she and my step-dad got married, but I do like the overall shape, cut and drape of this, if were a little fancier (but not TOO much more fancy).




I have neither the belly nor the hips to pull this off, but I am extremely fond of it, never the less.




Too much boob in my life to handle everything this dress has going on up top, but I like the shape and concept going on everywhere else.




This makes me think of dancing the Charleston. And I adore it. And it has swirls and a weirdo little bustle. What's not to love?

Next up: all the crazy Scottish dresses.

  1. I totally love every single one of these!

    I think the third dress down (from the top) might be my favorite.

    The fourth one down is very cute but it looks like a bridesmaid dress, so that gives me pause.

    They are all lovely though!
