My friends at Brickfish
have gotten together with Amsale for a fabulous and fun contest! What a way to trash that ugly bridesmaid dress you had to wear or tell the story of a disaster of your own! I think this is such a great idea and the prizes are amazing! So, check out the "girl scout cookie" disaster dress and then get busy telling your own story! Maybe the winner will show up here as a new post. Can't wait to read all of your entries. But, don't delay- you only have until April 13!!
The “Do Your Friends a Favor” campaign asks women to share their dress disaster stories; whether it was a horrible bridesmaid's dress or just a major fashion faux pas, Amsale wants to know all about it! It’s easy to enter.
Here are some of the details:
Entrants upload photos of their dress disasters. Entrants then select an Amsale dress they would’ve rather worn. Entrants can even use the "Anonymator" tool to make their worst dress moments anonymous. Entrants then share their entries with each other via social media to get votes and reviews. Entrants can also make their entries go viral by sharing across the Internet with friends and peers via their social networks.

This adorable bridesmaid dress, by Dessy, is also perfect for rehearsal dinner or any party! The bridal gown, in it's perfectly elegant simplicity is one of Monique Lhullier's amazing creations. All of the flowers are from Valley Forge Flowers and this bouquet was my favorite! Perfect ivory roses nestled in 4 luscious orchids and tied with pale green satin ribbon- it was a wow!

Her veil selection is beyond any I have seen in other stores. And she has the BEST seamstresses anywhere! 
Miss Jane is a dynamo and an amazing human being! Last weekend she had her second annual Pink Tea for the Susan G Koman Foundation for breast cancer. All of the little lovelies she teaches ballet and tap to took a break from practising for the recital and came dressed in their finest. We shared tea and treats. Both studios were decorated and there was a wonderful raffle with great donations from local business. There was even a fashion show for all the little girls. Here are some photos- and, yes, that is Miss Jane in the pretty pink hat. Of course, my little lovely was there with her Nanny.
