Wedding ?

[DCJenn]

OK- I need a dress for a wedding next weekend (the 24th)- awkward hours-

The wedding itself is in the San Fernando Cathedral so no bare arms/shoulders. The wedding is at 1:00 pm. The Reception doesn't start until 4:00 cocktails, seated dinner at 5:30. Over at 10 pm.

Short (5'3"), redhead, broad shoulders, boobs and Ugly Cleavage. Usually a size 10. (usually needs to be taken in somewhere but that's what fits the shoulders and the girls) The rest of me is an 8

I will wear heels - I have open-toed kitten heels in brown satin, red satin, or black satin. I would prefer not to wear more than a 1 1/2 inch heel since I'll be on foot over to the Cathedral and back.

Have at it. I have Saks, Nordstroms, etc. but am more than willing to expedite shopping.

What happened to your usual vintage route?

I was looking at Ann Taylor today (for a friend), and they had some lovely dresses.

[DCJenn]

My vintage shop turned into a dude making his own stuff out of the vintage stuff which kind of negates the whole thing for me.

White House/ Black Market sometimes has nice dresses. Or JCrew. That is my usual go to for weddings.

I just found an AWESOME BCBG dress at Bloomingdales in Atlanta this weekend. Apparently BCBG has good sales...it was only $50 and SO classy. I know Dillards carries BCBG, not sure where else besides those two places.

Found this with a few min of looking--not sure about the sleeves though

What about something like this (also comes in purple) with a multi-strand necklace and a shawl?

Or something with a high neck but open back,

Oh I really like the second one- I think I'm going to order it.

Ooh, I like that dress.

I think we should crown Jenn P the ebates queen

It's a more flattering title than iMSN slut!

You got to admit that you've been wearing that proudly for years.


Jenn, since you liked that black one, here's a variation on the theme.

and just wanted to throw another option out there (although you'd need a shawl for church)

This is what I ended up getting- I can wear it to the office Christmas party, too.
