Help me find a dress, please

GC fashionistas, I'm in need of shopping help.
I'm going to a cousin's wedding in just a few weeks and have been invited to the rehearsal dinner, as well, and I'm looking for suggestions for dresses for both of them. Both events are at night, but since it's a wedding and in the summer, I'm not sure about black. I'm hourglass shaped if that helps. Strapless doesn't work for me at all.
I've been looking around a little bit and feeling just sort of "blah" about everything. Help please?

Check at JC Penney's. I was freaking over not being able to find a dress (I didn't want a sheath & didn't want black) and I found tons of options there.

j crew, anthropologie, bcbg, and nicole miller (depending on how much you want to spend) also you could just search these on ebay and find some pretty good deals if your up for the bidding wars

both ann taylor and ann taylor loft have great dresses.

(check for an ann taylor outlet, that is a great store with fabulous prices! - I am lucky enough to have 2 near me!)

I found a cute dress there for a cousin's wedding and was very happy with it.

I have found this site helpful in helping me figure out what styles I want to look for, and sometimes find the actual dress. If nothing else, you can see all the options. With luck, a local store or website will have something you like in stock and in your size. Have fun!
