    I tried on this dress in the store and loved it.  My friends, parents (even my little brother), came to see it and loved it too.  I bought it and now Im having second thoughts.  What do you guys think? Should I keep it or should I keep looking?

    I think that's a beautiful dress! I had second thoughts when I bought a dress but I think part of it was that I was sad I was done shopping, could that be it?

    That's definitely possible.  I think I'm also worried that the tiers will make it look dated.  I dont want to be one of those people that looks at wedding pics a few years from now and thinks "wow, what was I thinking..."

    It is very pretty but it would be easier for me to give an opinion if I saw you in it and not the model!

    unfortunately I don't have one! I deleted them all so there was no way FI would stumble across them accidentally.

    Why are you having second thoughts?

    When I got my dress I had dress anxiety a few days later - and after a friend asked me that question I realised the only reason I was having 2nd thoughts was that I couldn't believe I had already found THE dress! It was the first one I tried on! It was just a bit too good to be true. So have a think about it - if you don't feel comfortable in it or don't like the way you look in it then maybe think about getting a 2nd dress. But really take the time to think about it - sometimes we tend to ignore our first gut instinct :)

    I LOVE it and think it has a great vintage vibe to it. Why are you worried it will look dated? I never understood why so many women worried about that. I think any dress will look dated 20 years down the road unless maybe you're in a plain white bedsheet or something. I think it's amazing and I wish women didn't always worry about their dreses looking dated. It's just a part of history!

    It is gorgeous and unique.  I had post purchase wedding dress anxiety as well.  Trust your gut.  Remember what you felt like when you had it on.

    First, this dress is beautiful!!!

    Also it's natural to a have a little flutter of second thoughts after making such a big person.

    But, what a lovely memory you have tied to this dress! Even your little brother came to see you, awwww. That makes it kind of special don't you think?
