A friend of mine made this polyvore set and I thought it would make a great look for maids. Dress is by Suzannah:
Different lace dresses from Issa make great maids dresses too.
Yellow and grey + cowboy boots. Interesting look. {The dresses are from JCPenney of all places and the boots are Steve Madden}

So, my mom and I went to check out two DJs this morning. We had an hour to kill in between and it just so happens that we were near a Davids Bridal and House of Brides. We stopped in and I actually found a few styles that I really liked at both stores. (Never heard of House of Brides before and I never found anything that particularly stood out at DB). I found a few I LOVED at David's Bridal and a few other nice options at HoB.
Unfortunately, I can't find the pictures of the House of Brides dresses, but here are the 3 DB dresses my bridesmaids are gonna try on:
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_...esmaid-Dresses
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_...esmaid-Dresses
http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_...esmaid-Dresses
(I'm in love with dress #1 and really, really like #2 as well).
The color we would go with is "Sangria". Now the weird thing about Sangria...it's not quite the purple we originally had in mind; it really has a bit of a red hue to it. Also, it looks different depending on the fabric/lighting. So I creeped on Google images to see if I could find some real examples. This is how I think they would actually look, based on the fabrics of the dresses I picked:

However, here's another "davids bridal sangria" example:
http://biancaandstevens2010wedding.w...jpg?1299175127
So I'm not quite sure how the end product would look...I like them both, but I do like #1 a bit more. Based on what I saw in person, they should end up looking a bit more like #1.

I think I found our bridesmaid dresses
It's the one on the left.
Now before the "OMGZ ONE SHOULDER/SWEATHEART NECKLINE/ONLY A SIZE 0 CAN PULL THAT OFF"...
I was pleasantly surprised at how it looked on the two bridesmaids who tried it on. I would have never ever ever EVER pulled this style based on just this pic. And actually, I was skeptical when my cousin showed it to me on the hanger. I ALMOST put in in the reject pile when we were going through the dresses that my bridesmaids were actually going to try on. But then I decided to give it a shot.
The dress looked great on both a size 6 and size 12 ladies. Unfortunately, the 12 was the largest sample size the store had, so my other cousin and MOH (size 14/16) didn't get to try them. We're going to poke around and see if any other stores carry that size. They're also two tall ladies, so things might change completely when I see them in it. I'm a little nervous, but if it looked as great on my cousin and MOH as it did on the other two bridesmaids who tried them on, then these will likely be the winner!
Oh and it will be in purple!
