Oli & Lina
“The concept simply is to bring great quality, fit and fashion to you through a personal shopping experience. We offer style direction that works for you as an individual."
‘Oli & Lina’ began as a simple concept; offer sophisticated, contemporary, and chic clothing for women ranging in the thirty to fifty age group. Rene Chrisan first came up with the idea after being unsatisfied with the same type of merchandise she would consistently see at “in-home parties”. One fateful day, Chrisan was introduced to Lisa Metcalf by a mutual friend and an instant kinship was formed. Since Metcalf ran a consulting company, Chrisan asked for help with the launch of her own business. Within months Metcalf moved from consultant to business partner and ‘Oli & Lina’ was born! In less than a year Metcalf and Chrisan have designed and manufactured three complete collections, which were extremely well received. By creating a relaxed and stress free atmosphere, Chrisan and Metcalf sell to their 250 and growing clientele through exclusive venue presentations. With current plans to take their concept nationally, MyCloset.com is certain this line will have a great future!

Closet Chatter
I have to agree with the others Homeschoolmama. Go with the company you trust and know that you're going to get a quality dress. And if it's beautiful the color doesn't matter as long as you like it.
HSM- I was not able to see the dress using the link you provided but I agree with Daphne. You should not risk purchasing from a company that you are unsure of for such an important event.
Homeschoolmama I would go with a company I trust. You wouldn't want to risk having something go terribly wrong, especially if the quality is in question.
Can I ask you all a question?
I'm less than a year from our 20th anniversary, and we'll be renewing our vows. I thought I'd order a pretty gown in chocolate brown. But I've been hearing stories about the company & their inability to get a dress shipped in a timely manner, as well as some nightmares about quality that have made me second-guess ordering through them.
Then this morning, I found this dress. (http://www.modcloth.com/shop/dresses/romantic-storyline-dress)
I LOVE the lace & chiffon, LOVE the modest neckline, and LOVE the defined-but-not-cinched waistline. I love that it would "go" with absolutely everything else I have planned, and the shape would look great on me. I even love that it's through Modcloth since I know & love their clothing already, AND it's $40 cheaper than the brown dress.
BUT... it's ivory. And I wasn't gonna "go there" with ivory because I DON'T want it to look like a bridal gown! So my question is... if it were you, would you wear an ivory dress, or keep shopping for a brown dress through a company you could trust?!?
