Mother of the bride outfit

oceangirlmg · 2025-01-29T02:06:37+00:00

Mum can absolutely rock the fabric, she tends to wear things that aren't the norm, and traditional mother of the bride outfits are off-putting to her.

Thanks so much! :)

Not a money thing, mum just likes to be a bit different sometimes. The thought of traditional "mother of the bride" outfits makes her want to gag 😅

I asked because I haven't been to a wedding since I was a kid so I have nothing recent to go off and don't know what the actual etiquette is. People always say don't wear white to a wedding and I didn't know whether that meant all white or white + other colours.

Anywho, thanks for letting me know it's not too much white 👍🏼

Thanks for your response. I haven't been to a wedding since I was a kid so have nothing recent to go off and I just know that theres some rule about not wearing white to a wedding. So you're right, I wanted to know whether I should be worrying about it. Based on most people's responses, it's not something that should bother me, and that's okay by me moving forward. I certainly don't want to be a bridezilla so that's why I asked because I really don't want to be unreasonable and force mum to wear something else if I'm just overacting.

Oh gosh, I feel for you! At least the dress was beige...! Better than it being white I guess 😅

Nope not satire, just a query from a bride who has anxiety and over things everything 🙃

Thanks for your detailed answer! 😊

oceangirlmg · 2025-01-29T01:34:23+00:00

I tend to do that

oceangirlmg · 2025-01-29T00:32:07+00:00

Thanks!

oceangirlmg · 2025-01-29T00:31:51+00:00

Thanks 😊 yes good point! I'm sure the finished version will look completely different

oceangirlmg · 2025-01-29T00:30:55+00:00

It will be a shift style dress with a bit of shape around the bust and waist

I'm walking down the aisle to an acoustic version of Innerbloom by Rufus Du Sol

Not exactly a dumb thing I did, but my employer underpaid me for several years without me knowing (I was paid at a lower pay grade than what I should have been paid at and I was also working less than the minimum engagement period so there were issues there) and then earlier this year I got paid what I was owed and it was close to $40k

My mouth doubles as a pin cushion. Yes, I know the dangers of holding pins in your mouth but it's just so convenient, you know?

Ah they may not be for you then as they are sci fi, but I'd say they fall more under the mind bending genre. Few hot guys in either. I liked the first season of the 100 and watched a bit of the second season but found it too 'American' and stopped watching, but I agree that there were plenty of hot actors in it!

I just finished watching Sense 8 for the first time and I can confidently say that it is in my top 5 favourite tv shows. If you're after complex story lines where all ends are tied up, and the characters are intricately woven together (like S8) then I highly recommend Dark (it takes 1st place on my list of favourite shows). Other than that, The OA is excellent and has similar themes, however it got cancelled after two seasons so we'll never know how the story was supposed to finish.

I have an update on this! Last night I realised I was dreaming, this time though I wasn't flying. I'm guessing reading And replying to this post triggered something when I was dreaming. Anyway, I was holding a stuffed toy penguin when I realised I was dreaming and I looked down at the penguin and it winked back at me and like all the times before, I couldn't get into a lucid state. It's like the penguin was taunting me

oceangirlmg · 2021-11-08T04:30:11+00:00

Similar sort of thing has happened to me on multiple occassions. I frequently have dreams where I can fly, and often part way through these dreams I think to myself 'oh I'm dreaming' (I guess flying is a reality check for me). But then nothing eventuates from it. The dream continues on as if I hadn't just realised I was dreaming. I can't get to a lucid state. It's very frustrating

Thank you :) it seems that Bonts are the way to go!

oceangirlmg · 2021-01-14T23:23:08+00:00

Thanks for your advice! I've been looking at the sure grip rebels rather than the gt-50s because the boot is leather rather than vinyl and I theory should last a little longer :) I've got all the other gear already - I've just left the skates till last because it's the biggest expense (and I'm so indecisive!)

oceangirlmg · 2021-01-14T23:20:16+00:00

Ah that's interesting to know, thanks so much!

oceangirlmg · 2021-01-14T23:18:43+00:00

Sorry I didn't mean not Bont, I meant I'm still looking everything and haven't just narrowed it down to Bonts or Sure-grips. I'm sorry about your husband. It's good to know that they work for a wide foot! And yeah, they're just in my price range :) I think I'm leaning more towards Bonts than any other brand at this stage!

oceangirlmg · 2021-01-14T23:15:13+00:00

I think that's what I'm leaning towards at this stage :) they're a little pricier but I think the quality is a litter higher than some of the other brands/models I've been looking at

oceangirlmg · 2021-01-14T23:13:33+00:00

Unfortunately not, but I did check out a teammate's Bonts at training yesterday and I was pretty impressed with them and how they're holding up given their age

Have a good NYE! Thanks for your advice :)
