I cannot believe that my daughter’s first Christmas has come and gone already! The days are fleeting and I want to hang on to every second. As I savor every moment, I spent a little time shopping using my Best Buy gift card for cool gifts for myself.

Here we are opening gifts on Christmas with the family. As I said in my last post, my mom’s cell phone is on it’s last leg and I wanted to give her a gift that keeps her connected with her family. As you can see, she loved it! I put it in the same box as a picture frame for her granddaughter’s first Christmas picture.

As the Mother of the Bride it is important that you stand out and look fabulous to honor your daughter. When deciding what to wear as the Mother of the Bride consider the colors your daughter has chosen for her wedding and also your own body type.
Speak to your daughter about the colors and the length you are considering so that it does not clash with her bridesmaid dresses or what she imagines her day to be. The Mother of the Bride and the Bride should probably go Mother of the Bride dress shopping together or at least have an email correspondence with links to dress options.
Black is not a great idea and you have to watch that you don’t end up with an unwanted color combination. For example, a red bride’s maid dress with a green Mother of the Bride dress in June is far too festive, but might work in December depending on the brides taste and religion.
Choose the best Mother of Bride Dress for your Body Type
V-Neck Mother of the Bride Dresses are universally flattering to all figures, including hourglass, triangle, inverted triangle, and rectangle. Women with hourglass figures look great in surplices and wraps as well. Anything that calls attention to the waist is helpful for this body type.
