We went bridesmaids dress shopping today (didn't find one we liked) but my mom found one she liked- and BOUGHT IT! It is gorgeous, fit her like a glove! It isn't something I've ever seen my mom wear, but she looked fabulous in it. Its a chocolate brown satin with a black chantilly lace overlay, a chocolate satin sash with a rhinestone buckle, slim fitting to the knee with a bit of a flare at the bottom- so adorable! I'm afraid she will look better than me! The best part? It was a $525 dress, but we got it on clearance on 50% off lowest ticketed price day- for $100! The only thing wrong with it was a missing rhinestone, but the lady replaced it for us and gave us an extra in case it happens again.
I would love to post a picture but she won't let me! (incase someone coming to the wedding sees) Just wanted to gush.
