I went dress shopping yesterday. It was completely different than I thought it would be. I thought it would be fun and I would be wowed! But I wasn't really comfortable during my appointment. I am not a girly girl and I don't enjoy shopping. What I had in mind was completely different than what looked good on me. I went to my first appointment yesterday with my mom and my aunt. My mom is paying for my dress. We started at a small boutique. I never really felt like anything struck me as the perfect dress. I tried on about 20 different dresses and was ready to leave, but my aunt pulled one more to try on. I liked how it looked on me, but I never cried or felt overjoyed. I was ready to be done and I felt pressured to buy the dress. I am overwhelmed that maybe I didn't choose the right dress because I didn't get "that feeling". I cried last night and I have been up all night thinking about it. I feel like I shouldn't have bought the dress, but all sales are final. I am having a hard time deciding how I feel. I like the dress and the way it looks on me but I am not in love with it. Maybe it's my personality. I need some advice so I can stop fretting about the dress. Please help!
Re: Second Guessing My Dress
So, bottom line: no, not everyone has that "OMG!" moment and bursts into tears of joy when they find THE DRESS. Yes, it absolutely does happen, but not for everyone. If you really aren't crazy about the dress, see about getting some redesign work done on it. It's more expensive than say, a simple hem or bustle, BUT if you got a nice deal on the dress and have a little extra money for alterations, a lot can be done to make the dress your very own. Good luck with whatever you decide. I can totally empathize with you!
