This past weekend, Aaron & I had a visit from my best friends all the way from Florida. It was such an awesome weekend… Totally felt like a little bit of Florida came with them, and that made my heart happy. :) On Sunday night, while deciding what movie to watch, we discovered that Amy had never seen That Thing You Do! Now Internet, if you have never seen this movie, stop reading this RIGHT NOW, and go watch it! It’s in my top 3 movies of all time. I remember seeing this movie in the theater at the age of 7 and thinking that Liv Tyler was the prettiest person I had ever seen. There’s a scene where she wears the most elegant dress that I had ever seen, and this weekend I was reminded of how much I still love that look on Liv.
Somehow, Google could not find a better picture of Liv in this scene, but you get the picture… Just so regal. And can we please talk about how that top bun has totally come back in style from the 60’s?!
Anyways, all that got me to thinking about my favorite dresses from movies throughout the years… My reminiscing was very nostalgic, so I thought I’d share some of my favorites. If you were looking for a really inspiring blog post to encourage & challenge you, today is probably not your day… At least not here.
Oh, Hermione. If I could take your place at the Yule Ball just to wear this dress, I totally would.

Anyone having flashbacks to the 90’s/renaissance? I certainly don’t want to be a fairy, but let’s be honest… If you were gonna crash a ball to make your evil stepsisters really jealous & angry, this would be the dress to do it in.
I feel like every woman in America was at one point in love with Kate Hudson’s dress in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. I remember prom the year after this movie came out… Yellow silky dresses EVERYWHERE.
If I could steal all of Rachel McAdams’ dresses from The Notebook, I would, but this one is my favorite. Doesn’t it make you wish you could go back in time to the 40’s?
And lastly, from my favorite movie of all time, Jennifer Grey’s dress from the final dance in Dirty Dancing. The perfect dress for the most epic movie dance of all time. Also, I miss Patrick. :(
Now, I KNOW I’m not the only girl in the world that has favorite movie dresses, so tell me! What are yours? :)
