    I've tried on this dress three different times at three different stores and today I finally decided it was time to stop shopping and bite the bullet!  I was so set on getting something more "name brand" but I just really love this totally affordable dress!

    It's Mori Lee 1612 and I've ordered it in Ivory (which is the sample I've got on).  I'm also getting a different "glitter belt" as my family has coined them (the dress comes with this great flower belt but I've always had a very "glitter" bling personality so I wanted a little something extra). 

    Also, the lighting in the shop was strange so it looks like my armpit is glowing.

    I tried this dress on Saturday, and I'm also in love with it.  I haven't said a definitive "yes" to it yet, but I'm 99.9% certain that this is also my dress!  I've been obsessively looking at pictures of it and other brides in it (by the way, you look amazing!).  I can't wait to try it on again!

    Thanks everyone!  I'm glad I finally listened to what I was feeling in my heart and not the buzzing of my friends who were really pushing me towards this wonderful Watters or a Lazaro, but I kept having a panic attack at the thought of the price.  I love those designers and their gowns are to die for, but being 22, a recent graduate and a future teacher made the price out of the question.
