'The Penny' - 1950's/1960's gold brocade. $142 aud
(I think the mannequin perhaps doesn't do this gown justice, it seems as though it needs a few more curves in the right places. But such an interesting design don't you think? The buttons are such an unusual & pretty feature.)

Can you believe those dresses? Can you believe those prices?! Buy three, decide on the day? Jokes jokes... Kinda...
I really, really love that gorgeous little chiffon party dress. The sweet cut of it, the flattering tucks at the front & that neckline is just perfection.
I'd also love that little cape & skirt set, I don't know if I'm quite fabulous enough to pull it off but I'd give it a go!
Now some lovely accessories also from Bohemian Bisoux...

'The Janie' - Vintage 1930's ecru crotched fishnet gloves. $31 aud

#123 Little Bridesmaid Dresses - Navy + Brights

The final post in this asos bridesmaid dress inspiration round up, navy & coloured dresses.
There's so many I love in this one, how stunning is that second dress? I shouldn't really start singling favourites out though because I'll list most of the post. Once again I've included a maxi dress that in my opinion would be a perfect gown for a maid of honour as a statement piece.
There also turned out to be quite a few photos featuring my two favourite asos models, yep, girl crush for sure.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Some seriously lovely draping & back detail going on in this bunch & I love that shade of green, just divine!
Ok, enough bridesmaid dresses for a bit hey? I'll try...

#121 Little Bridesmaid Dresses - Neutral

Thank you peonies & polaroids for directing me to this first vintage flapper inspired dress!
I spent far too much time perusing it's source, online fashion store asos (who by the way has free delivery worldwide inc. Aus) & not doing my dishes like I should have been (oops?) so I decided I might as well  pretend that I had put that time to good use by showcasing a neutral bridesmaids dress round up... yes, i know some of them are quite little but lets put those down to inspirational eye candy shall we?

  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

So many very cute lace, embroidered & beaded options there & I do so love back detailing.
A neutral palette is still without a doubt my favourite pick for bridesmaids. Pretty hard to outdo in my opinion!
