About Mrs. D'orsay

La la la la… so cool right?

In any case, it seems like everyone’s dress has a name. My dress however, only has a number so I’d like to introduce you to her, and for you to help me pick a name. I’m very sorry I don’t have better pictures, as I didn’t think they’d be on the internets…

As you can see, my dress is from the DB’s but I still think she deserves a name. We’ve been separated since I left the country and when I return I hope the dress won’t fit (in a good way!).

Yes… it needs to be hemmed… hardcore… I’m 5′2″!

And my favorite shot (which means it’s time to give my back a serious workout):

I’ll post more on my veil later, mostly because I want to play around with it when I get back to the US. I’d like to pick an English name for my dress, so the names I’ve narrowed it down to so far are:

Poppy (I like poppies {the flowers})

Emma (who doesn’t love a good Jane Austen novel)

Chloe (I have no reason - I just like it)

Hopefully this will give you (and me!) more of a hint as to what our theme is! :)

What should I name my dress?

I love it! especially the back. I vote “Brontë”. After Emily Brontë another famous british author!

I think it looks like an ‘Ella’ which is very popular in the UK right now or an Elizabeth x

You look so fun and stylish! I vote for Emma because that is our doggy’s name. And it sounds so wonderfully British!

Emma is perfect, because it is just what Jane Austen’s character would have worn at her wedding!

That headpiece just makes me think “Scarlet”. But that’s southern isn’t it? I vote Chloe then.

Oh she’s an Emma to me. Rolls off the tongue in such a romantic way. You don’t look 5′2″ at all! I’m 5′1″ myself! Beautiful dress.

Maybe something with a V, since it has a v-neck, and a v-back… Violet? Viola? Valentina? Those aren’t very English, though! :)

It is be-yooooootiful by the way. You look stunning in those pictures, so I can’t imagine how elegant you will look on your wedding day!

Beautiful dress! Out of your choices, I may be in the minority, but I vote for Chloe. To me it’s a name a little less common than Emma (my #2 choice).

They did not have that dress at the Springfield store and I really wanted to try it on! The dress is really flattering on you. I vote for Poppy to name the dress!
