Classy Concepts in Mansfield- and AW

AmberMarieTX

I just wanted to say that I had a great experience at Classy Concepts yesterday. It was a Thursday late trunk show appointment, so I was the only bride trying anything on (which made it even more relaxing). Sue had cupcakes and wine ready for my friend and I, and then when my mom showed up at random (I thought she wasn't going to make it), she made sure she was comfortable, too! She gave great advice and I could tell she wasn't JUST trying to make a sell. I'm not sure what it would be like on a weekend, but I had a wonderful laid back experience there. She did warn me that if I came on a Saturday trunk show day, it is pretty crazy. So I was glad that I made a late Thurs appointment.

The selection there is smaller because it's a smaller boutique, but you are only wearing one dress so it could be in there! She actually pulled one that I did not choose because when I saw it I thought "wow I love love the bottom but I think the top would be too much" ... but she pulled it later and I LOVED it when I put it on! We all really loved it. And she can modify stuff, like add a sweetheart..

I never realized what could be modified on a dress! They can do so much!

None of these pics have me in it, but here is the contender so far, although I have appointments in the future. I went ahead and put a deposit on it. She said that if I don't get that dress, it can go towards something else-- which I was fine with!

The Maggie dress I tried on was Light Gold/Champagne lace with Gold accent (I think). But we were able to "imagine it" being whiter. I am planning on adding a sweetheart neckline (if this is "the one")... the cap sleeves are removable!

 Here it is on a real person (not me), which looks better than the one on the model:

I don't know but I love that one too!  It's not the champagne that you tried on?

I remember the one I tried on had an overall brown feel to it... I don't know, my mind is spinning! Maybe it only seemed brown because it was next to white dresses? But I remember thinking the brown tones stood out a lot more than the one in that last picture... maybe I can print it out and just ask her? I just remember it being "different" enough to where I knew that I wouldn't get it like that because it didn't feel totally  like a wedding dress.....  It's a shame they don't have every combo as a picture on a website because some gowns look SO DIFFERENT. I didn't look twice at that gown when I was stalking the maggie website the past week! Not because it's not pretty, but because random things "weren't my style".. but I'm curvy so on the model the dress looks SUPER mermaid.. on me, it's not as obvious (more like that last pic, although I'm hippier than her)... and the petticoats make all the difference, too! Stuff I didn't even THINK about!

aww YAY! That makes me happy that you had such a great time there. They are always super friendly when I have talked to them about anything.

My dress should be here any day now from them! It should have arrived today. I'm sure they will call me next week since they have the trunk show this weekend.

I also like the white with pewter. It really makes the beading stand out. In the pictures with white on white, you could barely see all the beautiful detail.

Gorgeous dress!  I like the white/pewter....stands out gorgeously.
