Bridesmaid dress shopping...

Aisha and I have been looking for dresses for about 3 weeks on and off. I have also been doing ALOT of research on the internet. I found some really great dresses at Nordstroms online but it's hard to know what it would look like once you put it on. We starting off the search a few weeks ago in Rundle Mall. We tried Myer and there was a nice purple dress there that was on sale reduced to $80, however it had a stain on it so we didn't buy it. We also tried DJ's, Showies, City Collections, Whistles, and Pilgrim and found nothing. Yesterday we headed to King William Road to Wild Child which I thought would be a sure thing, but we couldn't find one thing for Aisha to try on, everything was so over the top and trashy.

Next stop Melbourne St, we headed to Inta Mode, and George. We tried on a couple dresses at both places and even though the Matthew Eager dress was really nice on Aisha it was also out of my budget. Last stop of the day was In Dubbio which is solely a bridesmaid dress shop. Aisha tried on about 6 dresses and with her figure everything looks great on her. But the last dress I picked up from the rack was the one we went with and it was within my budget! It is a lovely chiffon material that is very flowly and it's a maxi, perfect for a garden wedding. The staff at In Dubbio were very helpful I would recommend them.

We have had alot of fun discussing the colour, it is in the purple family. But it isn't violet because I don't like that colour, it has a tinge of pink in it, but is more purple than anything, very hard to explain.

So now I have the colour scheme of our wedding I can start working on the invites and flowers. I'm starting to get very excited because I can see it all coming together.
