Wedding, Dresses

Well, after all that I wore a different dress to the family wedding over the weekend.  O Fickleness!

I put my sunglasses up there and then I can't feel them because of my wig, so I forget they're there.

So yes, I carried the pretty pink dress down to Pensacola and then the day of the wedding, I just wasn't feeling it.  I put it on and it seemed a little too big.  I realized I wouldn't be as comfortable as I am in this more streamlined, stretchy dress.  I'd brought it as an emergency backup, and once I put it on, Matt and everybody else liked it better.  You gotta wear what makes you feel the best, and this was really it.  Of course I needed to spend fifty bucks on a non-returnable, final clearance dress to figure out what made me feel best. C'est la guerre.

I did wear the big earrings though.

Oh, and other people wore clothes too.  Like the bride, Jessica.  Just look at this dress.





It was so big!  Patrick looks like he's standing in a snowdrift.  It was truly the kind of wedding dress little girls dream of.  She looked gorgeous.  And she has a mass of dark hair that is pretty like Snow White's.

Other notable dresses:



This was a rerun from last year.  Still fits.  Here Laura is returning from her third trip through the food line.



My sister-in-law Kate.  This is an Anthropologie dress.  It has a Battenberg lace top layer.  Women crossed the room to ask her where she got this dress, and one little old lady asked her to be her date.  Also this picture makes me laugh, because it looks like they were having a normal conversation and just suddenly struck happy dancing poses.



The actual bridesmaid dress, worn here by Kelly, the matron of honor.  I loved the magenta and green.



Okay, Jessica's going away dress looked crazy good on her.  We gasped as she walked out.  That's why I didn't get any pictures of the front as she was walking by me, I was too stunned.  Later, Katie and I said, "It was the right dress on the right girl."  Those shoes, plum suede peeptoe wedges, were what she wore under the wedding dress too, on her tiny doll feet.  I wish I'd gotten to spend more time with those shoes.



Just lovely.  Keep rocking it, girl.

There are some dresses for you.  I have some other odds and ends that I'm sure I'll be posting.  'Cause that's how I do.  Have a good afternoon, buds. xoxox-B
