And I think I may have found one. Or two. I was looking online tonight for Mother of the Bride Dresses at RomanticGowns.com! and found this one:
And this one:
The wedding will be in February in the north Georgia mountains, so it will be cold or cool. I don’t like wearing a dress that has no sleeves, so both of these would be good choices. I really like the periwinkle color. But do you think it would make me look washed out with my gray hair? What do you think?

I like the first one. Yet think the periwinkle color would look good with your pretty blue eyes and your hair color.
Of course if I was looking for a dress I’d probably shop at the thrift stores where there are always lots of selections for fancy dresses.
You’d look beautiful in either though. 😉

I think the Periwinkle with your skin tone and grey hair is too light of a purple. Check these out:

I like the periwinkle too. I think the champagne color would make you look washed out more than the periwinkle would. 🙂

I also think the champagne color would be a bit too light for your skin tone. Being such a frugal person I have to say that I like the bottom outfit. It appears to be three peices, which would offer more wearing later on, using these peices to create other outfits. I’m also like Geogypsy, I would search through thrift stores and consignment shops, and have a cutoff date so that if you can’t find anything suitable in those shops you’d still have time to order one of these outfits.

I think the first one is a bit more sophisticated and it also looks more structured. At my age, I don’t want a super soft, drapy fabric that shows every bulge!
