I know many of you can relate to being a bridesmaid and hoping that your friend chooses a dress that you might actually wear after the wedding. It’s a stressful task for the bride when it comes to choosing the style, color, and getting appointments set up for each of the bridesmaids to try on the dress. Well, today I want to introduce you to a simple solution! Brideside.com is an online shopping platform for finding the perfect bridesmaid dress. They have several dress styles available in many different colors, but the best part of all is after you sign up you are given your own personal stylist to help you select a bridesmaid dress that everyone will love. Here’s an idea…after you’ve chosen a few dresses for all of your bridesmaids to try on host a fun shower for the girls so everyone can try on their dresses together! It’s fun, easy and another excuse to celebrate!
I’ve put together a fun style board above with some of my favorite blush colored bridal trends. I am absolutely loving the blush trend right now, and it’s right on track with my simple, sophisticated, chic view on personal style. Most bridesmaid dresses tend to be rather simple, but that doesn’t mean you can’t accessorize with your own touch of style. Personally, I love the floral shoe trend I’ve been seeing for spring. If the bride has chosen shoes for you to wear another fun way to personalize your look is adding a great purse like this beaded pearl clutch or statement jewelry piece. You could totally carry this python clutch with almost any color of bridesmaid dress, and it can easily be worked into your day-to-day wardrobe. The double-sided pearl earring is also a trend you will continue to see throughout spring. My word of advice is pick one item as your stand out piece when accessorizing your bridesmaid dress. After all it’s not your special day, but no reason you can’t look amazing! 😉
