A wedding is that most honored tradition where two people propose their love for one another in front of their closest friends and families. A part of that tradition is those best friends of yours in your bridal party. As the bride you will have way too much to think about and do on your special day so you recruit your best friends as your bridesmaids to help you, calm you, and look after your gorgeous dress. Your bridesmaids will of course be in the eye of the your guests all night long and stand beside you as you saw your vows so they must represent you and your wedding theme in the best way possible. The bridesmaid dressmust compliment the bride without being overbearing, the colors must match the theme without being too immature, the dresses must be classy, flattering, and comfortable for your girls because they will be the only ones besides you wearing them ALL day long. We have been continuously inspired by celebs and how they handle their bridesmaid selves so here is a yet another little list of some of our favorite bridesmaids looks throughout the years. Ladies Outfitters is here to provide you (whether you are the bride or the bridal party) with the prettiest bridesmaid dresses ever.
One foreign actress we absolutely love because of her gorgeous accent and adorable and bubble personality is Keira Knightly who stood in as a bridesmaid for her now sister in law. The bride was Kerry Nixon who married Keira’s brother, Caleb. The bride herself wore a full skirted dress with lace detailing while her bridesmaids mirrored her exact style with shorter and more simple versions of her dress. Plum dresses includes full bell shaped skirts and came in a v-neckline with pleated bust and empire waist. The fact that all the bridesmaid dresses were the same shape was ideal and the different lengths really distinguished them. If you are looking for something on a similar scale, we have an amazing designer who specialized in prom and bridal occasion called Cinderella. The dress we absolutely love as a bridesmaid dress is the one shoulder pleated and sequined dress with curly hem. The embellishments are subtle while the skirt flares out into a bell shape with multiple and visible layers. The short and youthful hemline on this dress will make your bridesmaids thrilled to wear all day long.
One bride who went the untraditional way is Emma Cooper. This celeb wedding included Naomi Watts as one of the bridesmaids who wore an ivory lace spaghetti strap shirt dress. While the bride opted for the traditional strapless white gown, the bridesmaids seemed to have almost matched her but not quiet. Ivory and white really do complement each other and the bridal party must have felt like they were most a part of the wedding rather than being separated by darker colors. If you are looking for something a little on the untraditional side as far as design goes, we have the Onyx Nite spaghetti strap crotchet overlay dress with gold slip and matching scarf. This dress glows all on its own and will make for an amazing bridesmaids dress especially with wedding theme colors like white, gold, ivory, or beige. The dress is elegant and can really add a touch of class to the entire wedding theme.
Of course when it comes to weddings, the Kardashians do it bigger and better than everyone else. When Khloe Kardashian got married to L.A. Laker Lamar Odom in 2011, the wedding was a fete unlike any other and planned at lightning speed. Khloe herself wore a custom made Vera Wang mermaid dress with purple sash to match her wedding theme colors whole her bridesmaids wore purple bridesmaid dresses from Vera Wang as well. Kim Kardashian who was the maid of honor wore the mermaid version of her sisters dress in a light satin lilac color. The dress was form fitting and very flattering and complimented the bride and her wedding theme wonderfully. If you as a bride or a bridesmaid are looking for something gorgeous and flattering you may want to check out the Jump strapless taffeta mermaid cut evening gown. The strapless neckline is delicately ruffled for a little touch of fun while the entire center of the dress is ruched and fitting to the body. Bottom skirt is a dramatic fishtail to really enhance that hourglass glass you are going for. This is the ideal dress for your classy and sexy bridal party, and believe us, the girls will love it! Wont you? Let Ladies Outfitters help you with all the finishing touches to make your wedding planning a little easier.
We all know and love the designer Alba. This designer makes the most incredible women’s pumps and we just keep getting more and more of them for our loyal customers. There is a reason for that, Alba footwear is made to make a woman feel gorgeous on the inside and out the second you step into a pair of those heels. These pumps are not your ordinary pumps; they are embellished, decorated, pumped up high, and come in your favorite silhouettes and styles. We wanted to take the time to not introduce the brand but to show off a new collection of Alba shoes that Ladies Outfitters has just added. The styles are fun and fresh and totally in for the season and beyond. A pump is considered any women’s shoe that is a medium or high heel; well Alba certainly redefined that because the new shoes you are about to see all stand tall in the 6 inch mark. We love the new collection because it is all about the unique shoe lover and the women who isn’t afraid to slip into a pair of 6 inch heels and walk around like they are slippers. These shoes were made for the adventurer and the daring women who will let nothing stand in her way of an amazing pair of heels.
The Lucite pump is back! We have been anxiously and also patiently waiting to get back a shoe with the ever popular clear panels and it is finally here thanks to Alba. This pump is the spiked Lucite panel women’s pump. Not only does it contain the clear paneling on the sides, it is also decorated with spiked and a zigzag edge along with an adjustable ankle strap. This pump comes in a light pink shade as well as classic black so your outfits will never again be boring. The closed toe and open design allow you wear a pump like this all year long no matter what the season. This little pump shoe stands at 6 inches with a 2 inch platform. Our favorite celeb inspiration for the Lucite pump would have to be the queen of shoe, Sarah Jessica Parker who as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City wore the most fabulous and delicious shoes for 6 years straight. One pair we are completely envious of is the Brian Atwood “Loca” lilac blue pumps with gold studs and side see through panels. These are every bit as gorgeous as we imagine them to be and notice that the star herself wore them with very casual jeans and crop top!
The next pair of pumps we are loving are the glitter closed toe women’s pumps. Yes we have featured the glitter pump shoesagain and again but this one is just a little bit upgraded. The glitter is piled on thick and in very course pieces unlike some of our others where the glitter was faint and thin. This one shines to ultimate perfection in a silver, gold, and multicolored version. Sticking to the design of a classic pump, the shoe is closed toe and stands at a stunning 6 inches with 2 inch platform. The shoe is ideal to pair with the most formal of dresses or even stick to a casual style and wear them with skinny jeans, leggings, or shorts. Beyonce is no stranger to the glitter pump because she boldly wore her glitter Christian Loubotin’s with skinny jeans and a blouse to none other than a basketball game.
Last but not least, we wanted to feature a shoe that is not a women’s pump per say but stands like a pump and has the shape one also. This is the spiked lace-up combat bootie. It comes in the color of the classic construction boot and a classic black and features spikes all over along with a padded ankle, lace-up ties, and a ridged sole that will make this bootie the ultimate walk around bootie to show off. This boot is definitely one to rock with a sexy pair of skinny jeans or leggings or even better wear a short casual skirt to make your legs stand out tall and lean while wearing this 6 inch, 2 inch platform creation. Christina Milian and Tahiry Jose of VH1′s Love & Hip Hop 3 were both spotted in this incredible shoe from ZigiNY, one pair in a camouflage version while the other pair is the classic tan. Spikes, high heel, and comfortable all day wear makes this ideal for your Alba shoe closet.
Sit back and realx and allow Ladies Outfitters to keep an eye out on the newest and greatest from Alba and many of our other fabulous shpe designers.
