Trying on dresses was a lot of fun, let me tell ya. I had an appointment at Davids Bridal on Friday to try them on and then made a follow up appointment today to pick the one i wanted. It was a tough decision at first but then i realized i had found the one. I really like the pick ups look, i think its unique and so me, so i picked out a lot of dresses with that style. This was the first one i tried on:
I had originally wanted this one, but as a strapless, but the store didnt have the strapless one in stock. I dont know if it was because it was the first dress i tried on or something but i felt like the bottom was huge and puffy. looking at the picture, it doesnt look like that but it just felt so big, so this one went into the no pile.
This was the second one i tried on:
This one i really really liked! But it was really expensive and the plus size version was even more expensive so unfortunately this one wento into the no pile, although i still love you!
Ok so this one was the third one:
I liked it a whole lot but honestly, i wasnt really feeling it that much. It went into the # 3 spot in my top three though. I tried it on today and i realized that it looks really good on me, but its just not the one. Sorry mummy dress.
Now here is fourth dress. :
When itried it on on friday, it was just a "meh" because it was 2 sizes too small so the sales woman couldnt lace it up in the back. But i saw it on the website and something inside said " yes" so i was really confused when i didnt get that same reaction when i tried it on. NEver the less, it made it to my number 1 of my top 3.
This is the fifth one.
I think she was trying to find a cheaper version of that beautiful expensive dress but this one was too old fashioned for me, with the sleeves off it was a little better but i didnt like it either way. My mom liked this one though. The funny thing is that today when i went in, some woman was trying on this dress ( she was the same size as me) and loved it so much she went ahead and bought it! lol!
This is the last one i tried:
At first i wasnt impressed but the more i saw myself in it, the more i loved it. This was a favorite among most of the people i showed the pictures too. It went into the number 2 spot in the top 3.
Ok so Fast forward to today, i tried on my top 3, starting with number 3 and 2, and they did nothing for me and were really uncomfortable. For some reason, the lady could not find my number one dress. She looked twice ( but honestly she was rushing and i dont think she looked good enough)). Anyway, she brought back this hideous monstrosity ( like the first dress i tried on, except it had a bow and was uglier) in replacment of the dress she could not find. Then she had to go to lunch so another woman took over and helped me get into the ugly dress. She took one look at me and said " Oh you are not happy at all! I can see it in your face." And i told her i was REALLLLY disappointed that the dress couldnt be found. So she said she would look again and low and fucking behold, she found the dress! I god out of that nasty dress, put on number one and OMG it was like heaven and i knew this was the one. I felt so much relief! Seriously, i was about to burst into tears!! Number 3 was emlimated right away and 2 was close but i didnt like the way it fit on my chest and under my arms. When i put my number one on, it fit perfectly in that area and i could actually move in it. It was the one for sure! They didnt have my size or color so i ordered it. It should come in sometine in late may. The top part where it is a slightly different color i ordered in a dark red color, the back is laced and that will also be in red. It is MY dress and im SO freaking happy i found it! Yay!
