Oh come on now. If you won't do pink, just get a nice conservative black cocktail dress. It never goes out of style and you'll look stunning. I'm sure you've got a pair of black heels already. Just add a pair of earings and your favorite necklace and you'll be dressed to kill.
Hey, at least yours is chocolate brown.... mine has to be "clover".
*ughhh... what am I, a bloody leprechaun?
She's soooo lucky she's my best girl.

I don't hate...
I dislike intensely, loathe, detest, abhor, abominate, anathematize, object to, recoil from, and on the good days allergic to, spit upon, & unlove...
or just hide the body where no one will ever find it.
:P

I have FOUR black dresses... NICE dresses and awesome black heels...
...but the mother of the bride is my Aunt and she told me NOT to wear black.
*ugh*.
I think DARK chocolate brown.

I am NOT a dress person, gimme workout pants/shorts and a sports bra and I am comfortable.
I have to be at the guest table for a wedding on Saturday. And horror of horrors... they suggested a PINK dress... umm, let's just kill me now.
I think I will opt for the other color of the wedding, chocolate brown.
THEN I will need to buy SHOES... I really just want to crawl into a hole and die.
Pray accordingly.
Hahaha.....
You and spicygamble gave me a good chuckle this morning.
I'm sure either of you will look stunning in any color.
BTW....I would look really appalling in PINK.
Well, at least they didn't request you bring matching PINK dumb bells.

I'll attempt a ray of "freaking sunshine". I looked at your pics and you are a woman in great shape. So just focus on getting a dress that will show the world (especially those overweight female guests) just what a great job you're doing of staying fit and healthy.
Try not to think of it as a "dress". Kind of like "display packaging".
I'm so glad men don't have this problem. We "dress up" by putting on all black, or pulling out that suit we never wear.
Good luck.

Sorry, I have a medical excuse... I'm completely allergic to pink.
I break out into massive fits of turrets.
Not pretty.

Oh come on, I think a short, low cut HOT Pink number would be nice. After all, they are relatives. Besides, in that kind of dress I doubt they would ask you to sit anywhere prominent again... LMAO.
Just kidding. You have my condolonces. I HATE shopping for clothes and try to avoid it like the plague. Thank god for the internet.

I love to shop, it's one of my favorite pastimes. Here are a couple of dresses that would look great on you.
We went to a reconsignment store, I like bargains!
It just happened to have an orange tag on it, meaning it was half off!
That made it more palatable that it is in pink... plus they just HAPPENED to have shoes in the matching color in MY SIZE!
So, the dress was 10 bucks... and the shoes were about 5 bucks.
Yep... take a gander at my 15 dollar outfit!
I will press it and make it look all purdy... plus, I will have hair/makeup in order... so this is a 'rough draft'. Hubby says he can not wait to spend the evening with me dressed like this, even though it seems odd to see me in pink...

The only thing that ruins it is your "I can't f'ing believe I'm wearing pink, and letting hubby take a picture of me!" look on your face. Relax and smile, you make that dress look awesome

agreed...smile...ya look like a deer in the headlights
That's not pink, that's Hot Mamma Magenta! Strut your stuff, lose the deeir in the headlights look and make the groom have second thoughts. You're not staying in shape to wear a pantsuit either.
Exactly who do you think you are?! Everyone knows you are not supposed to upstage the bride on her day! Now take that dress back and go find something more... umm... dumpy.

We would get along just fine!
*sigh*...
I will smile and try to pretend that I wanted to wear pink...
The wedding is Saturday, so shortening it would be tough on this short notice.
The bride wants me to wear a coverlet... yeah... I showed her the pics.
So, I will wear a lace coverlet to make it less revealing.
We found a dress at Macy's for my daughter in the same shade... she has to wear a coverlet as well... spaghetti straps in an Independant Fundamentalist Baptist Church is just not the 'done' thing. LOL.
My cousin makes me and my husband look like raging liberals!!
