I need to start trying on dresses for my June 8th, 2013, vow renewal. I'm about 5' 6 1/2" and shaped like a pregnant woman. No, really. People make that mistake with me constantly, congratulating me and asking me when I'm due. I have a very hour-glass figure, large chest wide hips plus I carry a lot of my weight right up front in my stomach. My limbs are rather on the thin size considering my weight (and that's probably why people think I'm pregnant). My assets are my arms, shoulders, back, legs, ankles, and feet. I'm not shy about having any of those uncovered.
Here's my delimma. I hate clothes shopping on a good day! For something as important as this dress, I'm petrified into paralysis. I've not tried a single dress on yet. I'm afraid after putting on a bunch of dresses that look horrible on me, I'll give up and put it off some more. Does anybody have any good ideas to try on my body shape that won't make it look it's worst? Maybe hints on what to stay away from? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Julie
