Why not go for something a little different when it comes to bridesmaid dresses? There's no rule to say that your girls should be all in block colours - adding a splash of pattern can be such a great touch for the more informal weddings.
This style of dress is so versatile as they work so well as bridesmaid dresses but finally a style where your girls can actually wear the dress again!!!
Floral print dresses are super affordable as they are generally made from lovely natural cotton fabrics which are much cheaper per metre than expensive silks. I always feel natural fibres are so much nicer for weddings than rubbish synthetics and with cotton prints you get the best of both worlds - lovely natural fibre & inexpensive!!
To complete the look I think the matching mens ties made from the same fabric are such a cute idea.
It is so easy to find great floral prints for your bridesmaids - just look in your local fabric stores crafting section for wonderful cotton floral prints.
There are also a bunch of online websites that stock fabulous prints. Here is the oh so cute floral print I received the other day (just need to find some time to sew it up now!)
