    Hi bees!  I am desperatly seeking a dress for our rehearsal dinner... it is going to be at a beach house my mom has rented for the weekend outside on the big wooden deck.  Cocktail-ish attire... I would love to find something either coral or red... knee length or around there... sexy but appropriate... HELP!  I am striking out big time so far.  So since its the Friday before a holiday weekend and we are all looking for something to do other than work for the remainder of the day I thought I would sound the call!  Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

    @bee_elle:  Thanks Elle, you rock!!!  Love the color of the first one, not crazy about the shoulder flower thingys...

    Seond one is something I may need!  But maybe looking for something a little more flowy for the dinner...

    Also like number three but maybe too casual?

    And number 4 is not really me... but if teh skirt was more plain I would be into it for sure!

    As long as its under $250 I can swing it (set aside part of my last few pay checks for it!)

    I should probably also mention that I have a big butt!  Ha!  so form fitting bottom halfs are a no go for me!

    Ha!  Thanks Elle!  I found one at Nordys that I love but it only comes in plus sizes which unfortuantly I do not have the chest to support!  lol.  Here is it though to give you an idea of something I did like :)

    Also thought this one was pretty, but maybe boring...

    @bee_elle:  You know the best websites!  I have been drewling on LULU since you sent the link!  lol!

    The 1st one is super cute!!!  May need it regardless!

    Pondering this one... it would either be very sexy/flattering or hideous... hard to say!

    check out macys.com they have a whole section of red dresses. I can't figure out how to paste on my tablet but if you go to macys.com then click on womens ans then dresses you can search by color. Lots of cute stuff.
