Off The Rack Weddings: January Edition

Hello little owls! The Limited has just added some new styled to their weddings and events line that I wanted to share with you all. All photos courtesy of The Limited, and all styles can be found here. Lots of great colors for spring weddings, and although I wished there was more diversity with color options, the styles are still really great for the price, which is extremely affordable. And I'm increasingly more impressed with their bridal gowns! Take a look, and happy shopping!

Off The Rack Bridesmaids Dresses

If I had a nickel for everytime I thought to myself, "This would make such a cute bridesmaids dress!" while I was out shopping, I'd definitely have enough money to actually buy one of those dresses. Is it strange that I'm usually thinking about wedding day style, rather then my own style, while out shopping as a married woman? Anyhoo, off the rack dresses are such a great, convenient and money-saving option for bridesmaids, and for the most part, they can easily be integrated into an everyday or special occasion wardrobe. And without the hassle of having to special order, you buy, and take-home that day.

I've collected four dresses I've seen recently that I think would be great options for bridesmaids, and paired them with shoes and a bouquet. All of these cute little numbers can be found on the racks of some pretty popular stores for easy accessibility.
