I am attending a wedding at the end of the month… and I have been on the hunt for the perfect dress. The wedding is for two close friends whom live here in MD with us. However, they are getting married in Atlanta at the Buckhead City Club (gorgeous place). I want something that is dressy – but not too formal, and nothing skintight or skankalicious.
Mr. Bear is wearing khaki pants and a vest, a white oxford, and a light blue tie (the vest and pants are similiar to this – just picture a white shirt and a straight blue tie).
My dream dress…
I thought I found it on The Bachelorette this past Monday…Ashley’s green t-back dress by Alice + Olivia… I die because it is SOLD OUT everywhere. Ughhhh.
Then I found this royal blue beauty on ASOS. I have never ordered a dress from this website and I am worried that it will not fit me the same way it fits the 6’3 stickchick model.
Another blue beauty from ASOS that I would love to wear… but afraid I don’t know how it would fit!
I LOVE this All Saints dress… but not enough to:
1. Wear white to a wedding
2. Spend $185
3. Did I mention it is sold out?

I don’t know where to look…or rather, what to look for anymore!!! I like things that show off my shoulders and collarbone – I HATE thick strap dresses – I favor strapless, halter, and one shoulder.
I like green, blue, red…. I don’t want anything crazy patterned… just something to match my hubs’ getup!
Any suggestions?
Well I am no fashonista- my mom still buys my clothes so that I look presentable, she has fantastic taste!
However, I am trying to grow in my fashion ways and follow The Glamorous Newlywed—http://www.glamorousnewlywed.com/p/polyvore-obsession.html
She has a section on what to wear! You can ask her and she will put together an outfit for you (several in fact)— I feel like she covered the what to wear to a hot southern wedding recently- check her out!
Check out Banana Republic and Ann Taylor’s dresses for something dressy and potentially petite!
check out modcloth.com they have cute stuff
Get the one I wore to the wedding this past weekend 😉 It’s pink/one shoulder/from Banana Republic and only $98! And it’s one you can wear again. I posted a pic today. Hope your dress hunt is successful!
