    Hi bees! I'm so excited to say that I've found my dress! It was the end of the day and I'd about given up on finding anything I liked... and then... BAM! I love how simple it is! I'm a very plain kinda gal and I didn't want any lace, sequins or beading. The best part is that was only $300!

    What do you think?

    I don't know you but for some reason it seems like it fits you perfectly!  It's very pretty and it shows off your figure

    sweet!  i like that dress a lot, too.  If it were me, i would get a flower embellishment and put it on the top of the dress somewhere.  But with that dress, you could really accessorize in so many fun ways! layering necklaces, etc.  Nice work, great price, pretty dress!

    Thanks everyone :) So fun to share! I couldn't be happier with it! I think I'm going to dress it up with some pearls my dad gave me and a large flower in my hair. Very simple. Very clean. 

    @wahlstrombioy its Alfred Angelo style 2034. Originally I think it cost more but I caught it on sale for a breast cancer awareness promo... i just bought it so they are probably still doing it :)

    LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! that dress. What a find and for $300... wow! makes me wonder why I spent over £3000 on my dress when you can look as amazing as that! Mind you, you are a beautiful bride-to-be so I imagine you would look amazing in most dresses. Well done! It's perfect!

    WOW...$300?!?!  How did that happen!  Its a beautiful dress and an even better price tag!  (Can you tell the jealousy...I spent a lot on my dress, no regrets, but of course I wish it was cheaper!)

    Thank you all for the super kind words! You've made my ego soar and I feel even better about the dress today than I did when I bought it (which is pretty amazing considering how thrilled I was to begin with). Thank you lovely bees!

    This is the dress I bought too and I absolutely love it! It is so flattering and I felt so beautiful in it. It was perfect the minute I tried it on & needs nothing.

     

    Congrats!
