Please tell me your thoughts on this dress, the print, if you would wear this if your were a bridesmaid. I think I love it. My colors are navy blue, white and orange - would this print clash too much? HAAALLLLPPPP! This print is Cape Cod, but they have a Melrose print (but I can't tell if it is Navy Blue or black).btw - it's my bday!

I like the dress and the colors but I can't picture it with orange...

Who shot the couch?

AmoroAgain · August 2009

I think it's purdy.

Happy Birthday! I really like that dress and doing a print for BMs dresses. I would just keep shoes, jewelry and flowers simple so they don't compete/clash with the dress.

I think the dress is really cute, and could picture it with some orange flowers mixed with some white maybe. Also... Happy birthday!! I hope you have a great day.

danieliza1127 · August 2009

Oh and Happy Birthday!!

TiDa2009 · August 2009

I really liket the print and colours and I think that orange flowers would go well with it. Since it is a print, though, you'll want to get your BMs honest opinions about it - not everyone is crazy about wearing prints.

It looks IDENTICAL to my grandparents' old couch. I definitely would not wear it.

arbolita · August 2009

I think David's Bridal has something similar and I like theirs better

MeaghanandMichael · August 2009

Love the dress. I would love to wear it again too.Three thoughts:1) I do think it it will clash unless you pair the flowers the right way (white only maybe). Random orange might not work.2) Bigger girls do not always look great in large floral prints. (not sure if you have any) 3) It may look busy it you have a large bridal party.Happy birthday!!! Doing anything good?

Night_Sprite · August 2009

Are any of your BMs short? It'd be an awkward length on them.

vallyhoo · August 2009

NMS, but it reminds me of a watercolor painting more than a couch, so I think it has potential.And hope you have a great birthday!

NuggetBrain · August 2009

It's okay - a little busy with the print tho.And happy birthday yo!

mrsswift · August 2009

Happy Birthday! But the dress is NMS.

goheels05 · August 2009

Happy birthday!I really like it. I'm digging the trend of print dresses instead of solids. I think some orange-y bouquets would really pop with those dresses.

bbyckes · August 2009

Ouch! on the couch references, but I guess that's fair. I honestly don't really see this choice going over well with them. This is just so me.Thanks all for the bday wishes! :)I kinda think the orange would liven up the dress. Hmmm...

laurening · August 2009

I personally like it, but people are really picky about prints and this is a busy pattern. It may clash with orange, but it depends on prevalent orange is in your color scheme. Some orange would complement it well, but too much and it's going to look like an exploded college mascot (I say that because FI's school colors are blue and orange).

BecW2be · August 2009

Happy Birthday! I like it, but I love prints. It reminds me of a purse I had a few years ago and LOVED. I think it would look great with orange flowers, as long as it was a solid bouquet of just orange. But again, that's just me.

Jaytee501 · August 2009

I'm not anti-print but it's not my style. Get your BMs' honest opinions if they'd choose this over, say, a solid.Have a wonderful birthday!

AmoroAgain · August 2009

I'm with Heels on the orange "going" with the dress. It could be really great.

Night_Sprite · August 2009

Honestly, fuuck everyone else's opinion. Your wedding. Make yourself happy. They'll be unhappy anyway. Do what you want.

Jaytee501 · August 2009

If you decide against it for the bridal party, wear it yourself for a shower, rehearsal dinner, etc.!

bbyckes · August 2009

Night, such the pragmatist - I love it! As for plans, my mommy is coming into town on Friday!!! So happy her first trip to Atlanta. I.CAN.NOT.WAIT!!!

bbyckes · August 2009

Jaytee - that's an excellent thought!

melissa.r.rich · August 2009

I think the dress is adorable!!! (I am also VERY trendy/preppy with my style)Simple shoes/jewlery would be key.Orange/white bouquet would be a nice touch.Is this a garden wedding? I would rethink it if: Wedding was indoors (exception, a antrium or conservatory) OR I had more than 4-5 bridesmaids (Too many prints is too much)BTW how much does this cost...I love the Lela Rose (dessy, after six) line.

SparrowSong · August 2009

I love it.I don't think it's navy, and think it would be a little busy with orange flowers (I'd do white), but I really like it.

crfische · August 2009

I like the look and style you're going for, but that looks like a gramma dress to me.

scoetto · August 2009

The dress is NMS. However... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

pumpkinpumpkin · August 2009

Ouch! on the couch referencesThat's what happens when you ask for opinions. I might have to search for a picture to show you in comparison of my grandparents' couch. It's almost creepy.

vicmo5 · August 2009

I actually think orange would go great with this dress, nice contrast and all. It's very pretty.
