Island Wedding..

My g/f is getting married in JA in about two weeks. She's doing it on the beach and asked all guests to dress "island chic". Her and the bridesmaids are wearing nice dresses but they'll be barefoot with flowers on their ankles. I can't for the life of me figure out what I want to wear. I like the barefoot thing and I'm envisioning a nice tropical looking halter dress, maybe orangy or some other nice, bright color and I want some nice bangles on my ankes. I looked in a couple stores today though and couldnt find a thing I liked Help

Thats sounds like what I want but in a nice color/print that will compliment the color I have in my hair (blondish, reddish brown) and skin tone, I love oranges when I tan. I don't see anything online either.

you will be barefoot too? that sand gonna be well it depends on the time.

the halter sounds nice you need a light short dress nothing too heavy and nothing dark. Lord n Taylor's have some nice summer dresses marked down. They have all kinds of color and prints very very nice.

i'm doing my wedding in JA next yr too on the beach too but not on the sand directly so we will be wearing shoes. I cannot go without my heels
