So as Mo gears up for the "biggest day of her life so far," I'm gearing up for the summer of "the most weddings ever attended by anybody, ever." I'm super excited for all of the wine, noshes, pretty white dresses, and hysterically happy friends. I cannot think of a better way to spend my summer vacation!
Of course, it also means purchasing forty bajillion new dresses, getting a kick-ass new haircut, and looking fabulous in 90 heat for three months straight. And if you know me, you know I hate heat. And sun. And anything that makes me sweat. If I could afford it, I'd get those creepy Botox injections in my armpits to stop the geysers of shame that erupt once the thermometer reaches 45 degrees. No joke.
ANYHOODLE, I'm in the market for some sweet cocktail dresses. I've got the one great wedding frock that looks something like this:
Although, I never seem to look as austere in MY dress; I think I need a metallic background to stand against. And I'd never wear such a restrained dress with such bridesmaid-y shoes. I'm thinking more of a hot nude pump, and a tailored tuxedo jacket for the cool evening.
To add to my summer collection, I think I'm going to purchase this little number from Victoria's Secret. I can dress it up with heals and bangles, but it's jersey so I can dance and drink in it!
I gravitate toward this shape of dress. I think I like the curve-skimming looks of the late 70s and the hugging jersey dresses from the early 90s. Big hoop earrings! Tribal bangles! And to top it all off, I need a sweet, kicky new do. I was thinking this:
Of course, I think I'll take the gorgeous face, British accent, and awesome makeup too. Is it possible to hire a personal air-brusher, just to walk around with me? Hm.
How about you? What's your dress style? High-waisted? A-line? Mini? Shift? What are your favorite dress stores?
