I already have my dress. It’s a loooooooooooooooong story, which is most certainly forthcoming. It’s a tear jerker (sad and funny tears all at once!) for sure, and I can’t wait for it hit the prime time, but for now you’ll just have to settle for these dreamy dresses.

If I were ambitious enough to sew my own dress (a la Miss Poodle!), I would promptly buy this pattern:

NanasSewingBasket.Etsy.com is chock full of vintage patterns. Can you imagine this dress in a champagne brocade for a Jackie O inspired cocktail reception? Come to momma, vintage dress!

If I were ambitious enough to sew my bridesmaids dresses (and wanted to willfully impose my taste on them), I would promptly buy this pattern:

PatternPeddler.Etsy.com also has a great collection of vintage dress patterns. I think these dresses in yummy silk would be amazing. Notice how the dresses on the packaging match our color palette? Be still my fluttering vintage dress obsessed heart!

If I decided I were not ambitious, but still wanted the look, I would promptly order this dress:

Hello cutey-patootie-ness! Seriously. Thank you Amanda Archer for rocking my world.

I hope someone else enjoys these as much as I do – and then sends me pictures so that I know these dresses found happy homes! Sheesh, you’d think they were puppies on the SPCA website… I just can’t take something cute staring right at me. That’s why I can’t window shop (for dogs or dresses) – who knows what I might come home with!

What are some of your favorite dress patterns and where do you go to find them?
