My 1st PIP, so bear with me plz :)

So, I took a gamble and ordered my dress without actually seeing it.  The style was so new that none of the stores had a sample yet, but I was running out of time and needed to place an order for my November wedding.  I just couldn't stop thinking about this particular dress, so I just took a leap of faith and ordered it.  Well, the sample finally arrived in the store, and I just got to see it last week and try it on, even though it's not in my size.  What do you think?PIP attempt #1: [img]http://tinyurl.com/leo7or[/img][img]http://tinyurl.com/n5ckst[/img]My favorite parts are the front detail and the POCKETS!!!  :)  The back has buttons all the way down the chapel train.  My actual dress should arrive in October, and I'll try to PIP with me in the dress after my fitting.  I know I'm going to try and lose more weight in my arms and upper body, but I love the dress, and am glad that I took the gamble :)  (although it has been a nerve wracking couple of months just waiting for the sample to come in)Hoping the PIPs worked.....crossing fingers, crossing fingers....

    Thanks Tya!!!  The first time I tried it, I did use the tiny url, not the preview.  When I just posted the links is when I used the prview links.  I guess I have to practice some more.so it's supposed to be [img]tinyurl[/img], right?

    Ya Tya, your the bestest!  Now I know why I was so chicken to PIP in the first place.  I knew I'd mess it up.  I guess I'll have to keep practicing until I get it right.

    Thanks Theresa.  I guess we were posting at the same time.  After our emails, I decided to just jump in and try it.  Better luck next time :)Yes, the bustline and pockets are my favorite parts of the dress.  When you can see the actual color from different angles, I like that too.  It's not really so light.

    Good thing you took the gamble - the dress is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!  I really like the detail on the bust with the cute flowers and am SOOO jealous you have pockets.  I really wanted a dress with pockets!

    Is it just me or is everyone else seeing really big print that overlaps?
