    Went dress shopping yesterday, tried on a dress that shop had just gotten in from the Mori Lee Blu Fall 2010 collection.  Everyone loved it, I loved it but was kind of afraid of how short it made me look.  Got convinced by everyone that it didn't make me look short.  Ended up taking the dress home with me and now I don't know if I made the right decision.  Help put my mind at ease!

    I think it looks beautiful on you and that you made the right choice. I suggest you stop looking at other gowns. When you feel iffy about it, try it on again, and I am sure you will fall in love with it all over again. It is perfectly normal to have second thoughts.

    You look freakin' amazing in that dress!  Gorgeous!  Like noritake22 said, what you're going through is totally normal.  (I went through dress regret myself!)  Just stop looking and be confident in your choice!

    i'm also pretty short and i think the tailoring through the hips gives you a nice, long, column that actually makes you look taller!

    Love the bow in the back (I'm a sucker for bows) and the silhouette it gives you!

    You're very lucky - some people would look short in that style but you definitely don't! It's a keeper :)

    It's a great dress! Don't keep looking at other dresses. There are lots of pretty  dresses out there and it's easy to get tempted.

    Thanks ladies!!  I just hate being the shortie all the time.  Last month we went to FI's cousin's graduation party and we took pictures with his cuz, I was wearing 3 inch heels and STILL 6 inches shorter than the FI, cuz and FI's little bro Frown  I'm going to need me some 5 inch platforms or something for the wedding!
