[QUOTE]At the risk of being jumped on, I don't understand "Spanish bride" as a criticism of a dress/veil. Maybe I am just missing something, but I don't even know what that means. (from holi's FMIL on OL). Posted by nickandmerritt[/QUOTE]

If you google Flamenco, it's a spanish dance, they wear tight fitting dresses that flair on the bottom, like a true trumpet dress. They also traditionally wear their hair back in a tight bun, like I did on sat.
We just both didn't like the comment because who wants to hear that they look like they are trying to be something other than themselves on their wedding day. I want people to say wow she looks beautiful not she looks like she's getting ready to perform the flamenco down the isle. Which some might say because I dance and I actually love that dance in particular.
I wish I had a picture because it would be a lot easier to show a comparison instead of describe. That's all that meant.

Haha, my first thought was, "Does her FMIL hate Spaniards or something?"

(from holi's FMIL on OL). On a positive note (!!!) my mom came up over the weekend and threw me a shower with some of my friends and extended family and it was so nice. I feel completely spoiled and can't believe how generous people are. And my mom made me a purse to use on my wedding day with flowers and teal crystals to match my shoes. It's so special, and I'm so excited. Since my mom and I are far away I've missed out on sharing a lot of the planning with her, so it meant so much for her to put this together and get to share it with her.

<div>Haha, FI came home last night and I still had my hair & makeup done from my bridal portraits. He said I looked like a Spanish dancer. Then we argued for about an hour because I couldn't tell if he meant that in a bad or good way. He didn't know either, because some of them are really pretty. So I guess it depends on if you think Spanish dancers are pretty or ugly. I don't know, it's a weird thing to say for sure!</div>

Oh geez.

I just got an email from one of my teachers. Yesterday, because of a group project there was almost a physical altercation between two of my group members. The instigating group member has already yelled at me at least 3 times over the course of the semester.

The whole situation is being reported to the Office of Student Conduct.
It's just about 2 weeks before I graduate. FML.

I forgot to update me quiting my job.

So I called the ole' boss up and explained that I didn't get to finish talking about what I wanted to him. We talked and I said that since I was looking for a full time position my time would be better spent dedicating my time towards that. I appreciated him giving me the opportunity yada yada. He said that sounded like a good idea and then went on to tell me B-Tch co-worker talked to him too. Since her and the bf broke up she wants to work more to earn some more money since her credit cards are maxed out. So that she would be working on Fridays too....dubya tee eff ( shout out Brooke!) I don't give an eff about said co worker and it is totally unprofessional for you to discuss what you and another employee had discussed.

So in short I was going to lose my job anyways eventually....

I had a phone interview last week. I was suppose to have a second interview this week, but I haven't heard anything from the company

That makes sense. I just googled flamenco wedding gown. Is it something like this?

Because that dress is really pretty. At any rate I wouldn't worry about it. Maybe your FMIL just has a narrow idea of what a wedding gown is supposed to look like, or who really knows. Every gown has its influences from somewhere. I'm sure you'll make it your own on your wedding day.

Yes.

I saw your dress in your bio and it's very pretty! I think you're FMIL was wrong and it's a gorgeous dress. If it makes you feel pretty and bridal go for it.

I'm having lunch at Fat Ho Burgers on Friday on the way to Austin. How do you like them apples?

dianaslik · April 2011

So I had my make-up trial this morning - and am very happy...
Here are 2 pics (one right after, one several hours later):

Going for kind of a retro/pin-up look (as my dress has kind of a retro-glam feel, and that's kind of my style anyways).
LOVE my red lips - it totally lasts to (not reapplied at all) - the only thing I might change is less liner on my lower lid (underneath my eye) - oh, and of COURSE I'll be wearing fake lashes for the real deal.

You look gorgeous!

Lovin' the make-up!

It looks great on you.

Diana - that is exactly what I expected and I LOVE it!

As for my SA? This is all I have:

*facepalm*

I can't believe yours is so close! I am way excited to see it all come together!

You beat me to it...we will be stopping by there in a couple of weeks!!

Unless you say don't waste your time, of course.

And Angela, I know I commented on the other thread but I seriously see your siggy and smile at the prettiness.

Seriously!

I don't understand what people don't get about the RSVP thing. If you RSVP for 2 then two should come not 8!
