    For my bridesmaid's gifts, my mom has graciously offered to pay for their hair, and I am also going to get them this silk kimono robe so that they can all wear it while getting ready. I want to order the robes before midnight tonight because they have a coupon for $75 off $250! I just don't know which color to order. Has anyone seen these in person? It's so hard to tell online. I want to get one of the pink shades: either wild strawberry, pink hibiscus, or pop pink. What do you guys like the best?

    I believe that the colors are in order starting from the front in the picture on their website.

    I actually just got a sexy little lingerie number for vday and it was in wild strawberry. The wild strawberry is almost a red, a very red pink. The pink hibiscus looks like a purpley pink, and the pop pink looks like a more true pink. I guess it depends on the shade of pink you like but I really like the pop pink because it's a  truer shade of pink. The robes are really cute, that's a really great gift idea!!

    How many bridesmaids do you have? It might be cute to get them each a different shade of pink! If I had to pick, I like the wild strawberry, but I would make sure it's not actually red before you order it.

    marissa227 - love that idea!!! since they are all pinks!!

    Are you wearing one?! In white/Ivory?

    I wonder which color would look best for photography, if you are getting "Getting Ready" photos.

    I have 6 bridesmaids... so I could do 2/2/2 of each different color. That would look adorable in pictures. I was also wondering which would look best when photographed... the wild strawberry might too bright and hard to capture in a photo.

     

    @CupCakeMeg: and yes I'm going to get the ivory one for myself!

    You know that VS carries the silk robes in ivory that says "Bride" in rhinestones on the back, right?! They only carry them in-store but I think that would be so much better than just the plain one for you to wear! I bought one to wear on my wedding day and I love it :)

    @mrsmurraytobe: no I didn't know that! I will have to hold off on ordering mine online and get the Bride one from the store. Thanks for letting me know! :)

    I ended up getting the pop pink because it's a truer pink, and I was afraid the wild strawberry would be too red. Thanks for the input!
