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
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.
I totally love every single one of these!
ReplyDeleteI 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!
