Everyone knows that after the bride, the mothers of the bride and groom have the biggest task when picking out what they are going to wear. Well, at least everyone involved in our wedding knows that. The bridesmaids were a piece of cake, and the boys are in tuxes… simple, simple. But in Mama Cloud’s case in particular, we have been going back and forth on details for a while. In fact, she purchased a total of FOUR dresses that she thought might be the one (the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, I guess). One of them did turn out to be perfect. It is stunning on her, and you can just tell she feels good in it too. The dress has already been handed over for alterations, and we didn’t manage to get any good pictures before it went, but I did track a picture down of something that was very similar. Just imagine this in a beautiful blue-green color instead of chocolate brown, and at the side where the gathering meets, a pretty silvery broach. Trust, it is gorgeous.

Perfect dress, check. Now accessories are needed, and we are stuck.
We both even go back and forth on jewelry: smaller earrings and a necklace, or maybe just bold earrings? Decisions, decisions! So, we are tackling the search for a purse first. At first she was thinking of carrying a small clutch she could pin her corsage to, but after looking for a bit, she kept going back to harder, more case-like clutches (obviously I have never in my life studied fashion, and I apologize since I’m sure this style of clutch has a better name then “harder, case-like”!). After a lot of searching, Mama Cloud narrowed it down to the five following contenders, and along with the links she sent, she had said these were her qualifications:
“Please remember to look for all silver purses: I want shiny, not flat or matte. The size is important. I want it to be small in my hand. I have always thought I would like to have a hard-type case. I have been looking for years, not in the right places, not knowing what it was called. I would like a good sized opening… I think they all have one.”

What do you think?
Or, have you seen something else somewhere that you think would be perfect? Mama Cloud and I could use all the opinions we can get!!
