Crying for the past hour - I don't hate by dress but I hate how it fits

My PWC was a little late....and feels really extreme! What do you think??

    Two months later, I dove in and did the post-wedding chop.  I figured, go hard or go home, but it feels super extreme.  I think I love it...what do you think?

     

    At my bridal shower (sorry it's blue, I'm not blue in real life):

     

    After (awkward self-pic, sorry):

     

    Woot!

    Thanks everyone!  I know, it's totally different...I've walked by multiple people today who have had NO IDEA who I am.  Weird.  And, in some cases, awkward.  Maybe I need a nametag.  :P

    love that jcrew dress!

    wow, usually people look better with short or better with long.. you seriously pull off both! I dig the short.. so cute...  it def makes you look more mature (in a good way!) and shows off your face structure and eyes so much more!  good decision!

    Thanks!  I discovered that dress here on the 'Bee and it's one of my faves!  

    @BeachFanatic: Thank you!  That's one of the reasons I wanted to do it...I was hoping I'd look a little older.  I'm working on my PhD and I'm tired of people on campus thinking I'm a high school student on a campus visit.  Ha.  ;)

    PS - love that you can see the Batman building in the background!  I'm a middle Tennessee native and it makes me feel like I'm seeing a glimpse of home!

    HAHA I agree... love that you can see the bell south tower!  If I a turn my head the right way I can see it out my window... but I can't see you and your cute hair with this crazy fog/storm we have going on right now.

    @Moose1209: I know!  The rain stranded me in a store because I literally couldn't see out the windows and I was NOT trekking back to my car in that.  Unfortunately, being stranded in a store meant I had to buy a cute new dress for my birthday tomorrow.  Sigh.  ;)

    Well of course you had to buy a birthday dress.  It would have just been silly not to.
