If you have ever been a bridesmaid you know the phrases "It's only $250"..."The lime green looks great on everyone" and the infamous "you can totally wear it again!" all too well. We all have been subject to less than fabulous bridesmaids dresses...and lord knows I did the same to my bridesmaids:) So how do we break the cycle of hundreds of dollars wasted on mediocre dresses that have yet to come off the hanger?? It's simple...mismatched bridesmaid dresses! I love the idea of everyone finding a dress that fits their style and budget AND have it be something they can actually wear again. Pick a color and length...rule out a certain fabric if you want (no one like a velvet dress:) and let your girls to the rest!
Before you shoot an email to your girls consider the following: Do you have someone in your bridal party that is off their rocker and will show up with a dress that is hideous?? Are you a control freak and want everyone to look the same?? Are their 15 girls in your wedding and this might look like a pile of laundry?? If you answer yes to any of these questions you may have some issues:) If not then this is such a fab way to save your girls some dollars, get unique wedding pics, and break the cycle of matchy-matchy bridesmaids dresses!

Can you tell me where these bridesmaid dresses are from??
ReplyDeleteI am also interested where these dresses are from and which designer?
DeleteI love these bridesmaid dresses. I am hopeless at fashion so knowing where to look for these kinds of dresses is out of my relm. Where do I look?
