Bridesmaid Dresses



Both of these dresses are j.crew and are still $180.00. These same dresses are in different colors (pink, yellow, peach) and they are on sell for $100.00.
I know that I need to be deciding on the BM's dresses, however, I really don't think I can. It bugs me to know that I am picking out what everyone else will wear. I know some people would laugh at that statement, because I am a self confessed control freak, but I still don't like the idea of picking out what 5 girls will be wearing. I know that I have finally come up with what colors I would like. Midnight, navy, and sapphire, mostly dark blues. But I do like some lighter blues. I think blues are very classic and sophisticated I don't what to look at my pictures 20 years from now and say "Geez, how 2009". I also would love to have my ladies buy a dress that they can wear again and again. I have three dresses in my closet, probably totalling about $600.00, that I am never going to wear again. I should also add that I want to find very affordable dresses. With all of the weddings that I have been in, the bride was gracious enough not to pick out $300.00 dresses. I have been looking online at J.Crew, Dessy, After Six, Ann Taylor and Alfred Angelo. J.crew and Ann Taylor's dresses look casual enough that they can be worn again, so this is what I'm looking into. However, (of course there's a however) both designers run about $200.00. Presently, j.crew has a huge selection of dresses on clearance, but I did find the drawback. There may not be sizes for everyone. So yea, this is pretty big drawback. Maybe I should just ask the girls to fork over the $200.00 for a dress that they will definitely be able to wear again. Hmmm... what to do?
