And can you please send me a link to it and the baby version? lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1719722 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 20:39:31 +0000 bunnylove08 1719722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: I'm not sure. She tends to like to make things about her. I'm afraid that she will talk behind my back. My MIL told me to get over the lace and white and wear the dress lol. Maybe I'm reading too much into it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1718408 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 11:42:12 +0000 psw27 1718408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmm well I was totally on board with the dress and think it is so gorgeous -- except if you and FSIL already have issues, is she going to hype the situation up and making it a big deal if its remotely close to white? (i.e is she a drama queen to begin with?) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1718344 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 11:20:03 +0000 MamaMoose 1718344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: no LO doesn't need a cardigan! No one will think she's the bride :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1718343 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 11:19:56 +0000 kjpugs 1718343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it's beautiful and would be SO CUTE to match LO!!!! A+! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1718329 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 11:16:25 +0000 aegie 1718329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it's as offensive as you might think because it's more of a peachy color. And while there is that romantic bridal feeling to it, it's CLEARLY not a bridal dress. And the cardigan and belt gives it a more relaxed feel. </p> <p>The mini-me version is adorable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1718026 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:54:16 +0000 snowjewelz 1718026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I vote yes esp if you'll wear a cardigan over it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717920 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:22:28 +0000 bunnylove08 1717920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hotchildinthecity: I'm not sure what the etiquette is and I would like to avoid pissing off the bride (we're not on very good terms, I have to go because she is my FSIL) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717892 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:12:33 +0000 hotchildinthecity 1717892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didnt know the white rule extended to bridal showers. I would think it would be pretty clear who the bride is! It looks fine to me :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717890 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:12:08 +0000 bunnylove08 1717890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: she doesn't need a cardigan right </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717882 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:09:57 +0000 MamaMoose 1717882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: I think that's totally fine then. And I love the matching dress for your LO! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717875 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:08:07 +0000 bunnylove08 1717875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: I do intend to keep the cardi on. I'm going to keep it open though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717871 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:06:21 +0000 MrsSCB 1717871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: love the matching dress! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717868 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:05:07 +0000 MrsKoala 1717868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It looks pink to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717865 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:03:51 +0000 MamaMoose 1717865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say only wear it if you intend to keep the cardigan on the whole time because the color combined with the lace does make the dress look very bridal to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717863 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:03:25 +0000 Smurfette 1717863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: super cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717861 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:03:08 +0000 pui 1717861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bunnylove08: That'd be super cute!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717856 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 09:01:43 +0000 bunnylove08 1717856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pui: @Smurfette: @MrsSCB: I'm glad you ladies are saying yes because there is a matching dress I want to put DD in... do you think that is appropriate? </p> [attach=3066/14/n7oeyv.418x418.47012_OR5185.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717851 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:59:49 +0000 MrsSCB 1717851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say yes. I didn't even wear white to my shower, so it definitely wouldn't have mattered to me! Pretty dress!</p> <p>ETA: I do have friends who wear white to every pre-wedding event but I feel like that's a relatively new thing. Anyway, I'm not sure the bride gets a monopoly on all white-ish things for the whole time leading up to the wedding :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717850 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:59:36 +0000 Smurfette 1717850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would! I don't think white/ivory matters for a shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717847 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:58:55 +0000 pui 1717847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think the "no white" rule applies to showers? </p> <p>I think paired with what you described it'd be totally fine. I might still not wear it to a wedding, but seems perfectly appropriate for a shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-i-wear-this-dress-to-a-bridal-shower#post-1717842 Tue, 24 Jun 2014 08:57:45 +0000 bunnylove08 1717842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Its an apricot color (pinkish) </p> <p>Is it too close to white? I was thinking about pairing it with a gray cardi and a light brown braided dress </p> [attach=3066/14/n7oes9.418x418.41642_OR5185.jpg]
