Once a bride...finally a bridesmaid.

Yes you read that right. I've never been IN a wedding, other than my own. I was a bride before a bridesmaid. So, imagine my excitement when over the course of 9 months I was asked to be in TWO!

The first wedding I'm in is in February, and you bet I was excited to pick up that bridesmaid dress. My MOH from my wedding is also in this bridal party, so we picked up our dresses together and made an impromptu ladies night out of it. Don't mind the frumpy top, I need to get it taken it, but this truly is a gorgeous gown and I cannot wait to wear it all day! 


oh, also...don't mind the length. It came fit for like a 5'8" girl...I'm gonna need about 6" easy cut off (this is where I hashtag how much it stinks being so short sometimes...)

Anyway. She and I definitely danced in this room for like 30 minutes. We even made our very own catwalk...video to come... JUST KIDDING.

Also, since beautiful dresses are my hot topic this Friday, can we talk about IF I had a ton of money to blow? I would buy this. Without blinking. Literally one of the most gorgeous dresses I've ever laid eyes on.

It's too bad I care about my wallets well being and won't drop the $298 on it that Anthro thinks it deserves.

I hope your Friday is as beautiful as these gowns! Have a happy weekend!

    I've decided you can just ship the bridesmaid dress to me once you're done with it in Feb. ;) it is beautiful! on both of you.

    And as far as the Anthro dress, well, I'm still looking for the money tree. Which I will hopefully find because it is gorgeous!

    Love the style of the dress. My sister was nice enough to let me pick out the dresses for her wedding and I went with one-shoulder too. And they do seriously make them way too long - I'm 5'6" and still had to have it shortened with heels!

    I am OBSESSED with that dress. Maybe we could do the sisterhood of the traveling dress and all pitch in. That would totally work right?!

    Wow!!! Now I want that anthro dress! That surprises me that you've never been a bridesmaid before. I bet you're going to be such a fun bridesmaid. You're so helpful, thoughtful, and kind, and those are the best traits in a bridesmaid.
