Note to self; must make sure hubby buys me some sparklers for tomorrow!!</p> <p>I think YES on the sleeved version of this; it's your color and the shape is incredible on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-660593 Wed, 04 Jul 2012 03:33:39 +0000 Kari 660593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey! I just found a new straight size version of this dress with sleeves. I'm thinking about that pretty Seaweed color. What do you think? <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/suzi-chin-for-maggy-boutique-elbow-sleeve-faux-wrap-dress/3287949?origin=category" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/su.....n=category</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-660381 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 23:11:06 +0000 Kari 660381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Edited to add a photo, #6, that one of my friends took at the end of the night. We were supposed to take sparklers to see the bride and the groom off, and there were extras left over afterwards - so we each grabbed a few and snapped some Polaroid sticker photos for the guest book. I had 5 or 6 sparklers in each hand at this point and a few glasses of wine under my belt. A fun night! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659133 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 06:04:05 +0000 goldenpig 659133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG another brilliant dress from Kari! Love the cobalt shade on you (and I would love to see the print with cobalt sash on you too!)</p> <p>I should do some sort of automatic subscription service--whenever Kari gets a new dress it automatically gets sent to me too. Because I haven't seen a dress on you that I haven't liked! And when you posted this one earlier, I just had to try it out, so it's on the way here already! Only problem is it never looks as spectacular on me as it does on you! You have the perfect figure for dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659128 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 05:57:01 +0000 ManidipaM 659128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not only do you look stunning in that colour and that beautifully draped dress, I'm so touched that you actually chose your dress as a compliment to a friend. So often one hears of bridesmaids reluctantly putting up with the bride's chosen colour that they've never choose... and yet this is the exact opposite and speaks volumes for you, the bride herself and for your friendship.</p> <p>LOVE the way you accessorise with extra colour; you're so great at that I'd never have guessed you EVER struggled with it!</p> <p>Also, thanks so much for sharing your friends' beautiful stories with us. It's lovely when a special occasion is that much joy and so personalized --- if any day should do that for a couple, it's this one.</p> <p>PS: LOVE the black&amp;white with cobalt sash version, if you decide to duplicate! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659105 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 05:32:04 +0000 Jenava 659105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look so deliciously curvy in this dress! I don't know if you've lost weight, or if this dress is just exceedingly flattering, but you're doing something right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659095 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 05:10:59 +0000 rae 659095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My goodness, that dress is amazing on you. The draping and color are too perfect - great tribute to the bride's color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659084 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 04:35:35 +0000 Jaime 659084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just to say it again - this dress is perfection on you. Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls/page/2#post-659070 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 03:49:26 +0000 Vicki 659070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jumping back in to add that I'm happy you posted the link, because I was about to ask if it was the Nine West dress, but I see it's the Suzi Chin for Maggy Boutique dress. Lovely colors and I like the Currant and the one Abie likes. Like you, I prefer, a sleeved version, but on you, the cap sleeves looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-659069 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 03:48:23 +0000 Deborah 659069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Im not sure what to say that hasn't been said, but Kari that is one stunning dress on you. Immensely flattering, gorgeous color, beautifully accessorised... I could go on. I can't help feeling you have so much more choice in the US. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-659050 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 03:12:30 +0000 Abie 659050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! Kari, you look amazing! That dress is stunning on you and I love how you paired it with the orange and mustard. </p> <p>I agree with you about the poly dresses. I have a few really nice ones that are my go-tos for the reasons you mentioned. I might have to order that plus sized sleeved one in passion fruit one you linked. I might also have to check out those pumps! I usually avoid most pumps because of the small heels but those look nice and thick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-659038 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 02:44:23 +0000 marianna 659038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, that dress is absolutely perfect on you! Wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-659002 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 01:02:58 +0000 qfbrenda 659002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look beautiful! I'm a big fan of poly/spandex dresses when they are done right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658998 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 00:46:26 +0000 Kari 658998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! I am quite thrilled with my little guest-of-wedding capsule, especially since all of the pieces double easily as work outfits. </p> <p>Sheesh, you all are making me wonder if I should think about duplicating the dress. It comes in this <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/suzi-chin-for-maggy-boutique-ruched-faux-wrap-dress/3036369?origin=category&amp;BaseUrl=Suzi+Chin+for+Maggy+Boutique">really pretty currant shade</a>, and also <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/suzi-chin-for-maggy-boutique-contrast-print-jersey-sheath-dress/3283888?origin=category&amp;BaseUrl=Suzi+Chin+for+Maggy+Boutique">this black and white print with a bright cobalt midsection</a>. I wish they had a sleeved dress like the <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/suzi-chin-for-maggy-boutique-faux-wrap-jersey-dress-plus/3303188?origin=category&amp;BaseUrl=All+Rack+Online">plus size version</a> though. The cap sleeves on this one were my only hesitation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658988 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 00:38:43 +0000 sarah 658988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, you have really outdone yourself with these wedding outfits. This dress is GORGEOUS on you. And I love how you've accessorized.

Period. 658879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, Kari! You look so incredible in this! You totally rate Angie's K to the power of K. Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658855 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 19:27:15 +0000 Kyle 658855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa. This is a show stopper, Kari. I am not always good at analyzing outfits and analyzing what makes them work, but I do know that this works for you on every level. The color and the draping, for sure. One of your best ever, that's for sure. Gorgeous. No wonder B is smiling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658848 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 19:08:30 +0000 Midwest Girl 658848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous color and style for you,and I really like your colorful accessories! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658847 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 19:07:57 +0000 Nadya 658847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know what you mean about the timing. I had a couple of "clumps" of weddings in my life as well - one in my mid-twenties as we all got out of college and another in my early 30's. For the last fifteen years it's been quiet on that front. I joke that I won't go to weddings again until my friends' kids start getting married. (Though a slightly older friend warned me that I may be in for a rash of second weddings soon!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658843 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 19:01:41 +0000 Kari 658843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for your sweet comments. Vicki, that really raises my spirits! You have no idea how long I struggled to make sense of accessorizing, or how long I was baffled by how to pair two extreme colors together. I know that when I started to wear chunkier, simpler necklaces it started to come together. </p> <p>This dress is why I feel poly/spandex dresses have an unfairly deserved bad rap. When they are a substantial enough fabric and are cut right - like this one, the Nine West dresses, the Tahari wrap dress - they don't look "cheap", avoid showing lumps and bumps, and feel ultra comfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658838 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 18:36:15 +0000 cciele 658838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the description of the wedding. And you are absolutely STUNNING in that dress! The color, the fit, the accessories -- wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658834 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 18:18:57 +0000 Vicki 658834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all and was just out the door when I saw you'd posted about Wedding #3! Kari, this color and dress style is so gorgeous on you. I "think" it's periwinkle, or could it be "cobalt" (I'm truly not sure!), but whatever you call it, this looks simply stunning on you. You have a way of finishing off everything so completely and your choice of pearls and selection of bag and shoes, shows this.</p> <p>Yes, you have a really wonderful circle of friends and I like the way you shared how they appreciate their friends and wedding guests when compared to others who might lack that genuine connection when social groups assemble. Friends like those are priceless and I really enjoyed hearing the creative touches that were part of these weddings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658828 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 18:06:07 +0000 MsMary 658828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, that dress looks amazing on you! I'm so glad you had a good time at the wedding, and I know you did your bit to make the scene even more beautiful!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wedding-3-rocking-out-in-periwinkle-and-pearls#post-658826 Sun, 01 Jul 2012 18:05:12 +0000 Kiwichik 658826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning. </p>
