So I did a little bit of bridesmaid dress shopping yesterday morning.
It was kind of impromptu. I was waitlisted at some places that ended up having time free, so at 10am Sonali, Meena and I found ourselves at Simple Silhouettes in Manhattan. (Actually, more accurately, Sonali found herself there at 9:45am, Meena around 10 and me around 10:07.)
It was loads of fun. Mainly because we sat on a couch and told the lady what styles and colors we were interested in and she brought them to us. It was the most painless shopping I have ever done!!
I haven't narrowed it down to one color yet, but I've nailed down the family. And Sonali and Meena have a good idea of the cuts they like. We were there for like 45 minutes. In and out.
Then we went to Jenny Yoo. And that was like the most painFUL shopping I've ever done. Talk about disorganized.
The woman who was "helping" us, was nowhere to be found most of the time. And there was a group across from us that must have had like 12 bridesmaids because there were a million people trying on dresses and all the dresses that we wanted to try on were always "in the other dressing room".
I asked the woman what styles she could suggest. She barely answered my question. They didn't have enough sizes of anything, so there were a ton of things Sonali and Meena simply couldn't try on. I liked a few of the dresses there. I think they may have had better colors, but I can't even deal with trying to process that whole shopping trip because I was so unbelievably frustrated by it. Shake it out. Let it gooooo!
Anyway, I'll post the colors I'm looking at for the bridesmaid dresses soon!
