This is it! After a looong day of dress shopping, I finally made my choice. Please try to squint and ignore a) my hair b)my akward face and pose (my mom wouldn't let me know when she was taking pics this is the best one, most are very akward and not postable lol... whatever happened to "1,2,3 cheese!!") and finally c) the dress doesnt fit yet. I've lost about 30lbs since September, and I plan to continue losing another 20 at least. so I bought a size that is one size too small, and plan to have a corset back put in. Now thats some motivation...right now my dress does not zip! eep. But otherwise.... I am totally in love. I knew it as soon as I looked in the mirror. They say you will know...and up until now, I have found a lot of dresses that were fine, but just not really me. I was so excited, that neither my mom or me checked the price before we placed the order. The great news was, it was less than any of the other dresses in the running, some of the others were 2x the price. So that worked out really nicely!! Oh ya, and I also bought shoes! Maribelle, satin peep toe in Horizon blue with the most adorable bow! yay!
