I wanted a flowy romantic looking dress. But boy it is hard to find! We literally went to 3 different malls and countless number of stores and just couldn't find one. Of course I don't want my friends to spend too much money either so that also makes it harder. So now I think David's Bridal might actually be the top choice since they have lots of different colors to choose from and the prices aren't that expensive. This dress shopping process is rather stressful, I never knew I saved myself so much trouble by letting them wear their own dress. But now I just created even more headache by changing my mind at the last minute!! Less than 2 months left................
Anyway, so in the midst of my crazy shopping weekend (I also went to yet another mall and shopped more today), I did find the perfect pair of earrings for the big day! And they are pink! How perfect, that will match the pink of the girls dress that I haven't picked out yet. They also come in purple which are very pretty too.
They are from Swarovski, and they are called the Nina Vintage Rose:
They look very feminine and delicate in person. The close up picture may show it better, but there's a white bow on top of the crystal. It's super cute.
The pink of the crystals in person is very faint, which will go well with my white dress. I have dark hair so they really stand out and are very eye-catching. They are pretty sparkly in the light, and I think they are the perfect size and sophistication for the look I'm going for. They are also very comfortable on because they are very very lightweight, I can't even feel them actually! Kind of worrisome because I could lose them and not realize haha. They are about 2.5 inches long. I originally wanted something that is maybe 1-1.5 inches long, but I don't mind this length at all. Here's what they look like on a real person:
I think they enhanced the color of the pink in the above photo, because they are definitely lighter than that on me. I'm really happy with them, and they were $75 which doesn't break the bank. At least one purchase from this weekend went well... maybe I used up all my shopping luck with the earrings that I don't have any left for dresses! Let's just hope they will turn out ok...
I have a few Swarovski pieces--gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteThose dresses are cute! I wonder if it's a bit much cost wise though. Really not sure how much would be a reasonable price! I was thinking somewhere under $100 but choices are slim...
ReplyDeleteCheck out Jcrews sale section online -- they have a ton of dresses and a lot are below 100 -- plus they usually have an additional savings code too ==plus jcrew is a little higher quality than a lot of the "bridesmaids" dresses
