My dress is ivory
Mya is technically my MOH and not a flower girl. So throwing her in white isn't necessary and she's thrilled about that. But it also makes the dress find more complicated being there are more options.

she really wants the bottom of her dress to do this:

I'm ok with that bottom style, just longer like

But in all reality I would be happier with maybe something like this?? is a pattern too much??

I dont know what would go best with my dress. I'm a little clueless here.

oooo, I love the La Bella Flora one! My neighbor is getting married and her bridesmaids and Jr Bride are wearing this (there is tulle that is under the dress, it extends lower...it's really pretty in person, would probably go well with your dress AND you can add straps..oh and the flower is removable as well) :

Hard decision! Do you want her in a color or ivory? If you like the color I really like the 3rd dress.... I think it's so pretty!

I like the floral dress, but think the pattern is a bit much. what about this? It was on the same site...

I'm not a fan of the mullet dress, but that is just me, and you all know how I am such a fashionista.

Your 2nd link wouldn't work for me.

OH HOW FUN... not only do you get to look all beautiful but you get to dress your baby up so pretty too! (Well, she's not a baby but she will always be your baby)

What are your colors? Do you want her in a coordinating color?

Have you tried this site:
http://www.sophiasstyle.com/special-occasion.html

I love their dresses for special occasions and they are always good quality. Plus, they usually have sales adn coupons.

I LOVE that dress Tara but Mya wont have it..she said it looks like a babies dress..

(little does she know she still is a baby..LOL)

Dee Dee no colors set per say. The colors of our bouquets will be based off Mya's dress. So that gives me lots of freedom.

My problem is she doesnt want to look like a little kid. In her mind she is a young lady.

Well I sort of agree with Mya, that dress is baby looking!

I like dress #3 too! What if you let her get a shoe with a little heel and a bit of make up...then will she not feel lie a baby?
Maybe get her nails done?

As I have absolutely NO fashion sense and really shouldn't try to help here, what about something like this (but without collar thing) http://www.cottoncandydress.com/Taffeta-seam-waist-flower-girl-dress-p/212.htm

Or this without flower: http://www.cottoncandydress.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=1082-eggplant

although I don't know if there are colors in these you would even want.

Or this http://www.cottoncandydress.com/Fuchsia-wrinkled-chiffon-flower-girl-dress-p/1082-fuchsia.htm

There are quite a few on that site and decent priced. Although I don't know what size she wears so some go up to size 12, some to size 14.
