AW - I have a dress!

hellosweetie1015 · February 2015

So I posted a couple weeks back about how much I hated my first dress shopping experience. A few of you said to try a boutique since DB wasn't the best place.

So I went to a boutique that my cousin used to own. And this dress was the first one I tried on. I lovelovelove it.

I'm going to get a TARDIS blue satin ribbon to go around as a sash. I'm so happy!

(Pictures may or may not actually attach but I'm trying)

va va voom!!! That looks so good on you! Cograts!

falsara · February 2015

Yaaaay. It looks so pretty on you. I especially love the idea of a Tardis blue sash. We're doing Tardis blue as one of our wedding colors, so I'm biased.

Gorgeous! Congrats on such a great find. It looks like it was made for you! Your smile totally says it all!

hellosweetie1015 · February 2015

Thanks, ladies! I love it. It made me feel so pretty.

@falsara it's one of ours too! BM dresses are going to be in the same family of blues.

Beautiful! I think I'd skip the sash with that style of dress....the silhoutte and style is flattering on you as is!

bethsmiles · February 2015

Beautiful! It really flatters your figure!

I am actually thinking about skipping it now that I've looked at the pictures (and paraded around unnecessarily in it at home....). I love it as it is. But ribbon isn't an expensive investment, and I imagine I'll need a lot of it anyway so that's something I can likely decide day-of if I want to.

Thank you guys. I haven't felt that pretty in a long time. I'm so happy with it.

I just did a double take because the other hellosweetie (since when are there two of you?!?!) posted about getting married in 2014.

But anyway, that dress looks fabulous on you! Congratulations!

....embarrassingly enough, I did the same thing hahahaha. I was like, I don't remember posting that... or getting married last year... I was very confused.

Thank you!

You look beautiful! The sash will be an awesome touch.

WinstonsGirl · February 2015

I love it!! But it's almost the same dress I wore, so I'm a little partial. What style is it??

It's a Jasmine F161001 (I think?). I may be a little partial myself, but you have impeccable taste. XD

WinstonsGirl · February 2015

Thanks. Mine was Alfred Sung some random numbers. I did it in champagne though, but it does look similar I think

hellosweetie1015 · February 2015

That's beautiful! They're very similar styles.

lovegood90 · February 2015

Gorgeous! I love the shape.

OliveOilsMom · February 2015

Beautiful! It was a little hard to see, but was that a corset back? If so, you could have the tardis blue as your tie. I agree with Joan that I think a belt would not go with that dress so well since the ruching (sp?) is not straight across.

No, it's a zip back, so the tie option is out. I tried it with a royal blue scarf in store, but I honestly was too overwhelmed to be objective. It looked so pretty both ways to me, haha. BUT I was smart enough to take a picture with and without the scarf, and I do find myself twitching a little with the angled parts clashing with the straight-across sash. Maaaaaaaybe I'll try it at an angle to match the dress's angles??? I've got time to experiment - I'll have it for a while before I have to start looking at any alterations.

Hello gorgeous!

cupcait927 · February 2015

Omg I love it! So flattering and so pretty! Congrats!

NowIamMrsKlein · February 2015

Beautiful! Love the Tardis Blue! (I am also biased though, we are doing a Tardis cake topper)

anjemon · February 2015

Gorgeous! I tried on some dresses in that style and they are very flattering.

And I love the Tardis blue idea, however you manage to tie it in.

AW - I have a dress!
