    Here is the dress that I bought...

    I have a couple of tattoos on my back that may not be deemed church appropriate (they're not crude, but they are tattoos). But I did want different picture options for my dress and was looking for some opinions. The first picture is my dress and the second and third is the bolero I am considering getting made for it. Please tell me what you think...I NEED GUIDANCE AND MY MAID AND MATRON AREN'T BEING HELPFUL!

    Have you tried the jacket on with the dress? Before ordering it I would make sure it looks good to you first. Things alway look different on. Its way cute though!

    I love the dress and I love the jacket.  I would have to see them together.  My initial concern is the ruffles on the jacket and the fact that the dress has no ruffles, so I'm not sure it totally ties the look together.  Are the fabrics the same?

    I like the idea of a jacket, just not the particular jacket. I think it's too busy with the ruffles...especially since you have beading on the bodice of your dress. Maybe something with the same cut as the above jacket but with a simple mandarin collar.

    Something kind of like this?

    I dont know, I actually think that the bolero might work!

    Actually, If you look in my profile you can see exactly what that bolero looks like in action! I have that same exact bolero!

    Thank you for your opinions. I am not taking the bolero as is (I shouldve clarified). I am going to eliminate the ruffles around the bodice and just have them in the collar and sleeves, that way the ruffles won't interfere with the beading on the bodice of the dress.

    I think the dress with look fine with a bolero and the one you have picked out is beautiful but I really think that dress would look better with one like jamaicabride posted. The ruffles are going to take away from the detail in your dress.
