this mary needs a dress…

by Nina on October 2, 2008

Most of you might not know this but I plan weddings as well as MANY other things. I’ve been “Mary” to a fabulous friend of mine since the day she got engaged (I’ve know AC for almost 10 years). Her wedding is only days away (October 18 to be exact). I’ve been so concerned about food, drinks, schedules and the RSVP count that I totally forgot that I need something to wear!! What do you think about this? I’m not dying over it… but I found it at Nordstroms.com today at a great price point plus I have 20% off coupon! Truth, please…

I’m not a fan. I think the fabric is too shiny, and it’s not form fitting- more like a plastic-y shift. I think you should try White House Black Market. They have some beautiful dresses on sale right now.

It’s not working for me…it reminds me of a designer trash bag with a belt.

I actually like the style, but I am not sure about the fabric. It looks kinda shiny. It would accent your very tiny waist though (which is always a plus) :) ! You could pull it off, but I am thinking you could find something similar with less shiny-ness.

i think you should keep looking. it has a nice silhouette, but i don’t love the fabric.

negative – just doesn’t look like you. plus, you don’t want to grab too much attention with half your torso out, since you’re the planner…love ya!

I am sure you’ll look FABULOUS in whatever you decide but I think I like the dress that “amy” posted a little better–maybe because it is more sleek?
Let us know what you decide!

I love the style if you could find it in a different fabric, just like all the ladies commented above the fabric isn’t working for me. But I do really love the style!! : )

I think you will look cute no matter what you wear. However, even with that being said I am not so sure about the fabric of this dress.
