Color Combos

June 22nd, 2005 @ 4:35 pm by Mrs. Firefly

What do y’all think of this color combo? Please ignore the types of flowers for now. I just want to make sure there are color combos (both for BM dresses and flowers) that go well with the Monique Lhullier dress before ordering it!

Orange/peach isn’t what I had originally envisioned for a June wedding, but I think it will work nicely. The idea would be that BM’s get off-white flowers and I get either peachy or orange flowers.

Tomorrow, I might post purple color combos. I find it sooo helpful to see things side-by-side!

Or maybe I can have bright orange flowers and the BM’s would have a white version of the same?

One of my BM’s just reminded me that she may be preggers during my wedding. These are the maternity styles that Jim Hjelm has in chiffon fabric to match the “regular” BM dresses. The style would be the preggers BM’s choice (somehow, I don’t think the second strappy dress would work after 7 months or so Color Combos :  wedding new york Winky).

I like Mango, Papaya, and Tangerine. It’s hard to tell on the computer because colors don’t always look the same on the screen as they do in person (ha! that sounds like an official warning).

Kleinfeld’s Bridesmaids’ Loft has the full line of Jim Hjelm dresses and swatches of all of the fabrics so ladies, you will be able to see how it fits in your size! I think chiffon is a sexy, but forgiving (!) fabric.
