Looking for a dress
My oldest son is getting married this summer. He reconnected with a wonderful girl from his college days. The courtship was short and sweet and now the wedding is a month away.
I decided to attempt some bonding time with my daughter who has been going through a rough time of late. Shopping with a teen brings a whole new atmosphere to the search for a wedding dress. MOG's are supposed to wear beige and fade into the background but I don't really want to do that. Not that I want to steal attention away from the bride ... I can't because she is lovely, but wearing beige is not in my color palette.
My fashion savvy teen found a cool dress. Its very non-traditional. So non-traditional that I fear the bride won't like the dress. I guess we will see.
Maybe I should have a back-up beige-like frock, waiting in the wings. The relationship navigation begins now.
Chic in Black,
Caroline

DO NOT GO BEIGE! Knock 'em out, sister.
10 years ago I wore a chic black dress to my daughter's wedding....she picked it out and I really felt sophisticated...go for it!! and...having also been a MOG I refused the beige thing :) Beige is boring...you are not!!
the dress was great btw...you looked wonderful in it...and you're right...you couldn't have taken away the attention from me! ;-) totally joking! :)
