    i could not decide between two very beautiful dresses. One was a Maggie Sottero and the other Sophia Tolli. I ended up going with the Sophia Tolli because my mom and I agreed it seemed to look better on my body type. Now as I am looking back at the pictures I don't know...I really did like the detail of the Maggie on the bodice!!

    Please tell me honestly if you think I made a mistake.

    The first dress is Maggie MonaLisa and the 2nd dress is the one I bought, Sophia Tolli Skye.

    I think I would have to see pics to make any opinion about it. Do you have any pictures? :)

    I think you made the right choice.  I like the second one better and I think it also flatters your figure more than the first dress.

    The second one is way more flattering to your figure.  You made the right choice.

    While the first one is pretty, I think the second one is prettier and more flattering.

    you made the right choice lady! The first one kind of drowns out your pretty face! But the second one is just the right balance ;)

    You made the right choice!  I think that the MonaLisa is too bulky and doesn't flatter your figure at all!

    I second everyone else. The first dress may be prettier on the rack but the second makes you look much slimmer in the waist and hips. Great choice.

    You absolutely made the right choice!!  The one you picked looks beautiful on you - the other one is ok, but not great.

    Definitely the right choice. As much as I love the Maggies, the Sophia Tolli looks better on you.

    I should clarify that when I said "may be prettier on the rack" I meant on the hanger, not on your chest, LOL.

    I like the Mona Lisa one the best. Is that the Maggie or the Tolli?

    yes you made the right choice. the first dress draws too much attention to your belly region.

    You made the right choice! I didn't like the Maggie on you at all! It's not very flattering (although it's pretty and i hate to say that to you) The Sophia Tolli looks AMAZING. You picked right, stop fretting!!

    WOW! The dress you picked is GORGEOUS! I may be totally biased because that is my favorite style ;) ...but, it's SO much more flattering and fits your body perfectly. WOW! YOU GO, GIRL!

    Thank you everyone for reassuring me! I felt kind of rushed when I ordered the dress so I keep thinking maybe it was not the right one and I will come across it and regret getting ST Skye. I have looked at the spring lines and haven't felt remorse yet, except when it comes to these two dresses. i do really love Skye and maybe when i go try on MY dress I can put it to rest for good.

    Meliss - LOL Thank you for the calrification. One of my qualms with that dress IS the way it sits on MY rack. I kind of feel like it is too revealing for my wedding day. :)

    I think every girl has second thoughts after she buys her dress.  I am going through the same thing!  It's totally natural.  Your dress is beautiful!!!
