Ask, and You Shall Receive.

I have a new pen pal. It's true. We're going to trade BFF charms and eat brownie batter together when she sleeps over. She asked me about cocktail wedding dresses. Granted, I think the question was hypothetical (nee rhetorical), but it got me thinking about cocktail-length wedding dresses. And then I just couldn't STOP thinking about cocktail wedding dresses. I had to do something about it. So here it is.

Dolly Couture. La-la-love it!

So sweet, you'll go into a diabetic coma. The pointy shoes are a must with this kind of dress.

Dolly Couture

The bride dyed her crinoline to match her hair! I just want to start singing "Break Out" by Swing Out Sister when I see this photo. Is that weird? Also by Dolly Couture via her blog.

Then what about THE coolest short dress ever?

SATC much anyone?

Oh, and look at these gorgeous things by UK's Stephanie Allin.

I want to buy this one to vacuum in. No? Too much?I think it would make that particular household chore so much more enjoyable that I'd actually take over the wicked, wicked task from The Candyman.

And for reals people, I think this shimmery, slightly sparkly ballet wrap is to *le die for.*

Also by Stephanie Allin.

And just look at it with THIS dress! Whoosh!

Vera Who? Monique What? I think I gots me a new favorite wedding gown designer and her name is Stephanie Allin, suckas.

This post is for you, Susie!

Penpal,

Fab, fab, fab. Agreed -- it's not so much that I want to get remarried in these dresses, so much as I want to vacuum in pearls while waiting for the Jones' to come over for a dinner party.

Nail on the head. These are exactly what I was thinking!!!!

xoxo,
BFF.
