Alright, let’s gab about them cornflower blue bridesmaid dresses, ya know, the ones all the gals wear when your niece or someone’s gettin’ hitched. I seen some purdy ones, and some, well, not so purdy. But hey, it ain’t my weddin’, right?
First off, what in tarnation is “cornflower blue” anyways? Sounds fancy. I guess it’s like, a kinda soft blue, not too bright, not too dark. Like them flowers growin’ out in the field, I reckon. Pretty enough, I s’pose, long as it don’t wash a body out.
Now, these dresses, they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. I seen some with one shoulder, kinda like that Shannon dress they talk about. Sounded real nice, with all that lacy stuff. Makes a gal feel like a princess, they say. But then you got them infinity dresses, the ones you can wrap and tie in a hunnert different ways. Sounds like a pain in the butt to me, all that wrappin’ and tuckin’. I’d just end up lookin’ like a tied-up sausage, I betcha. But hey, some folks like ’em. They say you can get ’em big or small, even for them maternity gals, the ones with a bun in the oven.
And the sizes! Lordy, they got sizes from double-ought to thirty-two! That’s a whole lotta dress, I tell ya. Good for them skinny minnies and them… well, them not-so-skinny minnies. Everybody gets to be blue, I guess. They even got ’em for the young’uns, them junior sizes. Cute as a button, they are, all dolled up in their blue frocks.
- One-shoulder dresses, real fancy-like.
- Infinity dresses, you can tie ’em up all different ways.
- Big sizes, little sizes, and everything in between.
Now, talkin’ ’bout buyin’ these dresses, that’s a whole ‘nother story. Seems like it costs a pretty penny to be a bridesmaid these days. They say the bridesmaid gotta pay for everything – the dress, the shoes, the sparkly bits, even gettin’ their hair done all fancy. Sounds like a racket to me! Back in my day, you just wore your best dress and called it good. But I guess times have changed. Unless the bride’s feelin’ generous, you’re on your own, honey.
And another thing, they say don’t go gettin’ too wild with the dresses. Don’t have one gal wearin’ a poofy thing and another wearin’ somethin’ tight. Keep it simple, they say. Maybe change one or two things, like the sleeves or somethin’, but not the whole shebang. Makes sense, I guess. You don’t want the bridesmaids lookin’ like they all showed up to different parties.
They’re havin’ a big sale on them cornflower blue dresses, so if you’re in the market, now’s the time to go snatch one up. Free shippin’ if you spend more than a hundred and twenty-nine dollars, which, let’s be honest, is easy to do with them fancy clothes. And they say blue means somethin’ too, like loyalty and all that. So I guess it’s a good color for a weddin’, long as it don’t clash with the cake.
So there ya have it, my two cents on them cornflower blue bridesmaid dresses. They’re blue, they come in all sizes, they cost a heap of money, and they’re supposed to make everyone look nice and harmonious. I still think it’s a lot of fuss for one day, but hey, what do I know? I’m just an old woman who likes a good pot roast and a comfy chair. But if you’re gonna be a bridesmaid, you might as well look purdy in blue, right?
Just don’t forget your comfy shoes, girls. You’ll be doin’ a lot of standin’ around. And make sure that blue don’t make you look like you ain’t slept in a week. That ain’t nobody’s best look.
Anyways, that’s all I gotta say about them dresses. Go get yourself hitched, or watch someone else get hitched, and have a good time. And try not to spill nothin’ on that pretty blue dress, okay?
