Which Blue For Your Bridesmaids?

Blue is a perfect color to select for your big day for all types of reasons.

You'll find lots of flowers in blue

There a multitude of shades of blue that you are sure to locate one that suits your taste - as well as your bridesmaids.

Unless your bridesmaids are identical, that is unlikely, then they'll have different skin color and different complexions. A color that appears fantastic on a single girl could drain the feel of another.

To assist you to choose, you should use our Pantone color tools with various color swatches. Hold them as much as each girl and find out which shades enhance the best inside them. All our bridesmaid gowns come in a number of different Pantone colors so you're certain to find the right one.

Don't feel either you need to put your girls within the same style frocks. Look at the photographs above and consider who would suit a halter neck, who'd look great in something strapless, and who'd look very good in sleeves. Dessy has lots of designs to search through. If your girls are curvaceous, Dessy styles are available in plus sizes so if you feel young, pre-teen bridesmaids who're too old to become flower girls but won't fit a grownup style, then take a look at our .

If you're marrying in the winter months, then rich deep blues and cool ice blues would look good. In spring you can match the colors of spring flowers like hyacinths. For summer, both pastels and brights works. Maybe pastels for any rural wedding and country-style flowers?

For the wedding bouquet, you can choose the blue shades that the bridesmaids are wearing. And then obtain the counter-contrast with all-white bouquets made for the maids, to tie in with the wedding dress.

Now that might be stylish.

Will you be putting your girls in blue? Or perhaps you have another color in your mind?

Let's put one myth to bed right from the jump: not every record is made to be broken.

Case in point? The NBA.

When I say "Wilt", you say "100," to which I reply "that's not even his most absurd record."

Wilt Chamberlain once averaged 48.5 minutes per game... in a league with 48-minute games.Walt Bellamy once played 88 regular season games... in an 82-game season.A.C. Green once played in Austen Williams Jersey 1,192 consecutive games... in a league not yet privy to load management.Rasheed Wallace once got T'd up 41 times in a season... in a league where players are now suspended after receiving 16.

As Stephen Curry pa ses Ray Allen for the most 3s in NBA history with absolutely zero sign of slowing down anytime soon, it's fair to wonder if his final tally will forever be etched in the record books. Let's break it down by taking stock of where he's at, projecting his career moving forward and then figuring out exactly what it would take to catch him.

CURRY MAKES HISTORY:

"STEPHEN CURRY...THE ALL-TIME THREE-POINT KING IN THE NBA."History.

NBA (@NBA) Projecting Stephen Curry's career 3-pointers

There is no perfect science to projecting the future and Idon Daniel Murphy Jersey 't have a fancy algorithm that projects health, league-wide evolution or future rule changes. All we can do is move forward on the information readily available right now and hold ourselves to somewhat reasonable expectations.

That means not venturing too high nor too low. When I say "best-case scenario", that doesn't equate to Currysetting a new record every year and playing until he's 44. Could it happen? Look at Tom Brady.But we're tempering expectations to stay within reason, if not overly optimistic.

Similarly,"worst-case scenario"gets pretty dark so we're going to cast aside any serious injuries or personal incidents that can derail a career. Could it happen? Look at Tiger Woods. But again, we're charting a path forward within reason and without any relative doomsday pe simism.

Here are three plausible scenarios to consider.

Scenario 1: The absolute best-case ceiling

At his current pace, Curry will finish this season with 3,242 3-pointers.

This is also the fourth season the two-time MVP has averaged at least five made 3-pointers per game. No other player in NBA history has done it even once.

So let's start there. Imagine that for the next five seasons after this, he continues to hit 5.0 per game. Given he's only played 80 games twice in 13 years, let's allow for five mi sed games each year during that stretch.

That's exactly 400 a year, which brings us to 5,242 by the end of the 2026-27 season when he would be 38 years old.

While the greatest shooter in NBA history should age just fine, even Father Time will eventually check in at the scorer's table. Could he play until he's 43? Vince Carter did it. Even if Curry is still out there in 2032, he's far more likely to camp out in corners for 25 minutes a night than dance around Michael A. Taylor Jersey defenders with the ball on a string. Let's bump him down to 3.0 triples a night with 65-game seasons which adds on another 975.

5,242 + 975 = 6,217.

Scenario 2: The realistic worst-case floor

Again, we're completely removing career-ending injuries or events. However, it's prudent to keep in mind that Curry isn't exactly an A.C.Green-level ironman, either. Though he famously overcame some brittle ankles early on in his career, it's fair to wonder just how Curry will hold up given his history and slight frame.

With that said, it's almost unfathomable to expect Curry to suddenly decline from a superstar level. All things being equal, let's give him another two seasons beyond this one averaging 4.2 makes per game (the same amount he hit in 2017-18) and playing 65 games. That brings us to 3,788 through his 15th season.

Curry has four more years on his current deal after this one which would take him to 17 seasons, one fewer than both Ray Allen and Reggie Miller. For argument's sake, let's a sume that over the final two years of his deal during which time the Warriors will pay him an astounding $55.7M and $59.6M Curry falls off to 3.0 per game while mi sing 30 games each season.

Yan Gomes Jersey If he calls it a career after his 17th season under this scenario, Curry would still finish with 4,100.

Scenario 3: The plausible best gue s

Naturally, the best gue s is somewhere in the middle.

Let's play out the back end of Curry's career in three stages beyond 2021-22. Once again, we'll a sume that Curry maintains his current pace for the remainder of this season and use that as our opening benchmark.

All-Star: Four more seasons.4.5 makes per game. 72 games.4,538 through 17 seasonsGood starter: Two more seasons. 3.2 makes per game. 60 games.4,922 through 19 seasonsDirk and D-Wade torch pa ser:Two more seasons. 1.7 makes per game. 50 games.5,092 through 21 seasons

This trajectory allows for Curry's career arc to naturally unwind while respecting the Adrian Sanchez Jersey likelihood that his game ages gracefully. It's not hard to imagine Curry embracing a role similar to Dirk Nowitzki in Dallas or Dwyane Wade in Miami, two legends who stuck around to properly usher in the next era for franchises they defined over the course of two decades.

Under this scenario, Curry cracks 5,000 career treys, an unfathomable amount and over 2,000 more than Allen's previous mark.

Who could challenge Stephen James Bourque Jersey Curry?

When Miller retired, Allen was the obvious succe sor.

When Allen retired, Curry was earmarked as the next man up.

Who will challenge the potential Mr. 5,000 whenever he decides to hang it up for good? There isn't an obvious answer.

Just take a look at the active leaders. Nobody from that list is touching Curry,who continues to leave everyone in his dust.

Any potential challenger is either just getting started, not yet in the NBA, or not born yet. Here's a very quick run through the top challengers:

Luka Doncicis the fastest ever to 500 made 3s both in terms of age and games. Still just 22, he could hover around 30 points per game for the next 15 years. That said... he has yet to average 3.0 per game in four seasons and is actually making fewer now than he did in his seco
