    That's really cute and I think it's worth the price because it's definitely rewearable :)

    I think it's super cute but I don't think it's worth $139. Is that because it's a "bridesmaids" dress? I feel like you can find something very similar from Nordstrom or Macys for WAY cheaper.

    But then I'm a cheapskate. Tongue out

    I think it's SUPER cute! When I'm in weddings I usually budget $150(ish) for the dress, it's usually less than that but it gives me a little wiggle room so don't be too afraid of the cost. A dress I wore last summer was $189 and to help with the cost the bride but $30 down on each dress, it was something none of us expected but were very thankful for. Just a thought! :)

    Oooo - I love it!  And chocolate brown will be really cute.  I think your BMs made a good pic and yes, that price is decent.  Seriously, you can't find many cocktail dresses ou there for under that price level and this will be a dress that they'll DEFINITELY wear again.

    I think it's cute, and rewearable. So with that in mind, I don't think $139 is that bad.  But you could try doing just a bit of research to see if you can find it cheaper.  But if they all like it, and are willing to pay the $, don't stress yourself out about it.

    Really cute dress and I wouldn't mind paying $140 for it, but maybe you could find something in a similar style a bit cheaper.  Are you ordering it in black?  If you are, then for sure you should be able to find it closer to $100.

    I think it's really cute for certain bodytypes, but for me personally, I can't pull off high necklines very well!  If your girls can rock it though, I think it's a great choice!

    I really like that dress! It's very cute, but not worth 139 in my opinion. Unless they can all afford that.

    CUTE! It's a simple dress but that being said, I'd still pay $140 for it without qualms. I'd get a lot of wear out of it to justify the cost =]

    I like the extra ruffling around the edge and neckline....altho I do agree you could find a slightly simpler one for significantly cheaper. Still, me likey.

    i do love that it is rewearable and the price is affordable...BUT i agree that you may be able to find a similar one closer to 100 also (not sure where you found this one, but try nordstrom.com...their juniors dresses often have simple black dresses that could work.)

    also, i always feel like i am more broad on on my shoulders (most ppl say im far from it) but i know if i were wearing a high neck i wuold be self conscious...i would just check to see how all of your bridesmaids feel about the neckline!

    the fabric in the picture also looks super comfortable and flattering :)

    I voted "ok" because I really do love how it looks but don't think it's worth that price tag, tbh.

    i voted for it because i considered it for my girls as well. i actually have a dress like that that i wore as a guest to a wedding and i absolutley loved it. very comfortable to wear and its definitely one that can be worn again and again.

    i think, because it can be worn so much after the wedding, that it IS worth the price!

    i think its cute, but i put "ok" because for me personally, i'm not a huge fan of halter type dresses. But if your BMs like it then i think its worth it.

    I really like that dress. It's very cute and totally rewearable. I wouldn't feel bad paying $140 for that dress since I would be able to rewear it.

    I think it's really cute!  I would definitely re-wear that long after the wedding.  $139 may seem a little pricey at first, but if your bridesmaids are able to get some use out of it, it's worth it.

    I voted OK but let me explain. Personally, I LOVE IT. I could see myself wearing it not just as a bridesmaid but to a party or just in the summer. But, I love that cut of dresses and it is very flattering on me because I have nice arms! The reason I voted OK was because I dont think that this style is universally flattering. It can definitely make some people look very broad up top. I think strapless dresses are much more flattering on all shapes. Of course, you should ask your girls. If they love it and want to wear it then go for it! Make sure you give them an option though like "Do you like this or do you think you would prefer another style" that way they dont feel like they have to say that they do like it! Good luck!

    I like the dress. my bridesmaid got one in blue that looked almost identical to that, though, and she got for 50 bucks @ norstroms.com . Just a thought ;)

    It's very cute, but I second clarebee's post about it not being flattering on everyone.  If all your girls try it on and feel good, go for it! I'd definitely wear it, again and again.

    the reason i love it is because it's NOT strapless. i personally dont think that strapless is flattering on everyone. i've never liked them, not on me and not on many people. that's actually why i love the halter!

    I think it is gorgeouse however quite expensive im sure you should be able to get something similar at a fraction of the cost.  Unless of course your BM's are paying for their own dresses in which case - excellent!!

    I agree.  Very cute and fun looking dress. I love short bridesmaid dresses.  I say anything under $150 is definately reasonably priced. Great find!

    I think it's cute but if any of your bridesmaids have large chests, I might advise against it. As a large-chested woman myself, I look awful in those kind of tops. Even when they fit, they usually don't come around the sides enough. So if you have curvy women, there may be some sideboob action.

    I think it is nice - but I would be concerned about the fit on someone with broader shoulders or a large chest - I am a 36F - and dresses like that make the girls like enormous!
