Daughter of The Bride: What Should I Wear?

I'm happy to report that my mother may have found a dress. It's not metallic, and she doesn't look like a martian(if you have no idea what I'm referring to, read my previous blog). I haven't actually seen it, but based on her description, I'm thinking this is a more plausible option. It's a perriwinkle blue two-piece--long skirt and and corset-like top that doesn't show cleavage. Apparently, there's some lace on it somewhere, couldn't quite grasp where exactly when she was describing it. I'm still a little hesitant at the idea of seeing a bride in blue, but it's her wedding, not mine, and she's 63, not 23.

Furthermore, I may have found my own dress! I recently popped into BCBG in the Flat Iron District on a lunch break and came across a sexy, classy short dress. Check out the link: http://www.bcbg.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3983491&cp=2769162.2840697&page=3&pageBucket=0&parentPage=family. It's not as short on me as it is on the model, as I'm only 5'0. Otherwise, there's no way the Bride would go for it. Check it out, and let me know your thoughts.

I'm coming home to Westport this Sunday to try on the dress for my mom and to possibly look at others. Unfortunately, the PLUMED SERPENT, the store where she found her delectable, blue delight, is closed for Easter. So we will head to SAKS to see if Sandy finds anything else that tickles her bridal fancy-could do worse than Saks. Wouldn't you agree?

Feel free to send me links and ideas for dresses for my mom or myself or suits for my brother!
