Shopping help needed

This one is gorgeous, but pricey.

Before I'd spend $100 or more, I'd get this one delivered (not avail in stores).

For $15, I just ordered the 2nd one!

(Gotta love a thread where you're shopping for someone else AND find a few goodies for yourself. )

Deborah, I LOVE the colors in the dress and I think you would do it a disservice to wash it out with a pale gray. Make them pop with a black or find a purple or fuchsia that complements the beautiful.

I'm with Lisa - black or bright from the palette. It's beautiful!

That second link from Bewitched (Post #12... the "wrapped in ruffles" sweater) is GORGEOUS! Go with something like that in black!

Glam dress! Nicely played.

Eh, you've got an entire month. Why not knit something?

Got past my dad's birthday so now I can devote my time to this project.

I want to go with gray because I'm concerned about being the dark shadow in a sea of pale blues (the wedding party colors). Lightening up the dress a little with gray or silver is my way of making up a little for not going to David's Bridal for a dress that just isn't me. At the same time I've realized that light colors are not good for me. I'm going to see if I can find a necklace that will put some color near my face.

Three weeks now but first I'd have to learn to knit. I did entertain the idea of crocheting something for about a second and a half. But no. I would still be working on it during the wedding and that probably wouldn't go over well.

Now I'm going to go back to check out all the links. I let you know what I decide. Thanks!

That jacket is gorgeous but more than I want to spend.

This came today and it should work. It's a darker silver than the link above.

Tomorrow, shoes!
