The Nays of Dress Shopping

So, some dresses looked pretty on the hanger and not on me. Some dresses were just fun to try on, but definitely not my style. And some dresses were picked by a consultant, who might not have known me as much as the friends do.

Look at my face...hahaha. I even picked this one, and it did nothing for my figure. Blah.

Grecian godess anyone? This is deceptive though. It looks pretty in the picture, but man was I stuffed in it. It was only a size 2! If I go back, I might try on a size bigger, just to see. But no one really liked this one in person.

Vera Wang. This is so deceptive. It looks gorgeous in the picture, but many was it crazy. All that wavy fabric at the bottom was so hard to walk in and sort of perplexing to look at in person.

Pooja wanted me to try the big poof. Ha. It was big alright.

Barf.

Loved this one online, but it felt like a dryer sheet and looked a little like a comforter at the bottom. Liked the top.

Too much going on around the boob area.

Angela wanted me to try on a Disney dress at Alfred Angelo...this one is the Ariel. Just not me.

Picked by the consultant, because it was on sale, and the WORST all day. Ew. I mean just look at my face.

This one I would have bought on the spot if I was a winter bride. Because I looked like a snowflake queen. It was beautiful...and train...perfect. But for winter.

And just a little shout out to my posse (these ladies plus Angela) - THANK YOU!!! I was so blessed to have so many friends, who love me so much, there to help me find a great dress. And I love all of you...and hope I can return the favor when you all shop for your big dress.
