*SHRUG*

SHRUG

I am naturally a sweaty girl. I know, it’s gross. I hate it too, but it’s in my genes. I can’t really help it. So, when choosing a venue, we decided to go indoors with air con. We’re getting married in June, so a strapless dress was the way to go. There’d be no reason to layer on anything else. Until, I came across these shrugs.

I am in LOVE with these adorable ivory, lacey, delicate, flowery shrugs! It makes me want to get married when it’s a bit cooler just so I can have one. Check these beauties out!

Sigh. Cute. Chic. So adorable. Is there something you love, but can’t have for your wedding?

I adore those shrugs, but it wouldn’t have worked with my dress. I compensate by wearing awesome shrugs in real life

ugh, I have the same problem as you. Sweaterific! I think they’re called bolero’s (sp?). My mom will be wearing a satin bolero to match her dress. My seamstress is making it from scratch for her and I thought of having a little lace one made for me too. BUT-when I think about it, I’d probably wear it for like an hour, we’re also having a June wedding, then it would have pit stains, and no one likes pit stains. So, I guess it’s not in the cards for me, but they are soooo cute!

oooh! I love that last shrug- so awesome! I would love to have sky high heels, but that probably won’t jive with my venue! And a red jacket for “getting in the cab and heading off to the after party” pics. That one might happen.

I’m totally with you on being a sweaty person…it’s the worst! Nothing worse than having to manipulate your wardrobe because of it!

I swooned over shrugs too! But, not so practical for a Jamaican party!

Our day has the potential to be freezing (you never know in New England) but I kinda don’t mind because I want to wear a shrug or cardigan so badly!

I love those shrugs…but since my wedding is in June they’re not really practical, either. Le sigh.

I’m getting married in June, I plan on having a shug for the ceremony then taking it off for the reception. I’m getting married inside so it won’t be aweful.

I have been stalking on the site for a few weeks - my girlfriend sent me a link and I’m hooked! The shrugs are adorable! I am a former sweaty girl and totally feel your pain! Have you ever considered using something like Drysol? I used it in high school and still hardly sweat (10+ years)!

So cute. I’m an ex-swimmer, and I still maintain a frame of “swimmers shoulders” I’m not sure if it would hide or detract from them!

The big thing that I wanted and didn’t get was a sleek and modern venue close to the church we are getting married at, but we really couldn’t afford it - so we went with a place that is “nice” and a bit further away.

I love them too… but couldn’t find one that didn’t compete with my dress. Sigh.

I discovered the bolero/shrug trend way too late in the planning process…otherwise, I too would have added one to my “gotta have” list.

I’m totally with you on the too-sweaty thing! I, too, am a sweat machine. AND I, too, LURVE the lace shrugs…. I have been trying this prescription strength anti-perspirant and it’s working pretty well so far, so I MAAAY get to wear the little darling!!
