    My dress was supposed to be shipped on October 8th, but it came in two months early. Monday I had the day off so I went and tried it on with my mom. The bust needs to be taken in just a little bit, and I should learn not to slouch.

    (Sorry for blurry pics- mom isn't great with a camera)

    That looks GREAT on you. I love the waisteline.

    I'm getting sad about my dress now, seeing everyone else. It's pretty, but now I feel it doesn't flatter me as it doesn't create a dramatic waistline.  And it doesn't help that I'm WIDE in the waist.

    But you look great!

    @luli29: I just went and found your dress. It's GORGEOUS. I love the fabric and the way the back is and you look great in it!  I have dress envy at least once a week seeing other girls dresses on WeddingBee.  Sometimes I still want to go try on the dresses that I see.

    @bells: Thanks, my hair was being unruly that day, it will be in a low updo for the wedding.  The bust of the dress looks ok from the front, but from the top it's a little too "open" if you know what I mean. It's a very very small amount it needs to come in.  We could probably add cups into it= but I'm not sure that I want to.

    This is one of my top 10 dresses I've seen on WeddingBee, and I've looked at maybe a thousand :) Congratulations, you look so pretty in it.

    I have to ask, is that a Casablanca? I think I have seen it before, and I have to admit your pics are making me want to go try it on for myself! :)

    @beckiesue:  Yes. It's Casablanca 1992.  One of the Bee's tried it on too.  But I cant' remember which one.

     

    Thanks for all the compliments ladies!

    @beckiesue:  Miss Sand Dollar tried this dress on, but didn't know the designer/number.  Here is a link to her post: Miss Sand Dollar's Post
