Dresses Are In!

February 14th, 2007 @ 10:30 am by Mrs. Plum

I’m not going to post a full picture because I look weird and I haven’t shaved my legs hahah - I got home from work and tried on the dress!

I’m so mad though! After I placed my order, Nordstrom emailed me to tell me that they were “out” of the dress in all sizes, so instead of 4, I received 3 BM dresses. What am I going to do with just 3?! URGGGG! Somebody please help me! I need a 4th dress!

Now, I’m searching for some shoes for the BMs. I wore my b-day present from my FI a year ago with the bridesmaid dress.

Does anyone know where I can find something similar but with a much cheaper price point for my BM’s? (I am not a baller haha and thus, cannot afford to buy Jimmy Choos for all my BM’s. smiley4)

Oh those Jimmy Choos are fabulous. What good taste your FI has:). Bridesmaid dress is very cute by the way.

maybe your maid of honor could wear a different dress to set her apart?

I did an exhaustive search and couldn’t find it online. Do you think it would be sold in the store? I saw that they still had black in stock. Would it be the end of the world for your MOH to wear a black dress?

Sorry I couldn’t help any more!

aww thank you so much for all your help! I did call them last night and spoke to an online rep - he did a store search for me as well, and found a couple that had them, but I calle dhtem and was met by some rude young sales associates who put me on hold forever - I lost patience :-p

Love your Jimmy Choos! Worse comes to worse, you can always get them dyeable shoes and have them dyed to match. Those Steven’s that LK posted are cute, too, and cheap!

Hey Miss Plum, a couple of months ago I had the same problem. Nordstroms ran out a dress we needed for a BM. I talked to a rep and had them contact some stores for me but no luck. I then spent a week scouring ebay (literally, every day… every lunch break, every other minute) and low and behold, the dress that I needed was found for a mere $45, brand new! It’s worth a shot!

Just a suggestion…if you can’t find that exact BM dress, what about having your maid of honor (if you have one) wearing something a little different? Since she’s your maid/matron of honor, it will make her somewhat stand apart but also blend in with the other bridesmaids (this is pending if you can find a dress that look similar to the one you got at Nordstroms).
