     I found my dress yesterday on my first day of shopping. What a beauty! AND it's on sale for only $250! It's not the best photo, because my corset doesn't fit right, and I didn't know she was takig the photo, but I was so excited I had to share it with you guys!

     photo pending!

    Here they are! Again, ignore some of the imperfections of my body that will be resolved with a better corset and a little working out

    Pretty pretty.  You could probably just loosen the corset.  Is it a Maggie?

    Do you guys think this shrug would work with it? Is the lace too different?

    Very pretty dress!!  I like the shrug, but like you said, the lace might not go together just right, but then maybe that's OK!  What about a satin or organza shrug?

    The dress is so pretty and a great price!  I think I'd have to see the dress and shrug up close to tell if the lace works together or not.

    thanks everyone! And thanks for the shrug/bolero suggestions! I am still haunting etsy to see if I can find the perfect thing (and waiting  to hear back from some of the people you recommended). I will let you know what I find!

    Beautiful dress! The lace is so elegant and I am a huge sucker for lace up backs! Great find -- I hope I'm as lucky!

    To answer Heather25, and others who have asked after the designer, I checked the tag when i brought my dress home yesterday(!!) and discovered it is a Maggie Soterro. I'll have to do some research to find out how much it normally goes for. I can't get over what a great deal I got!
