    So about a week or so ago, I posted how I was so upset over my dress fitting and the top of my dress fitting right.  Well today I went back and I brough reinforcements (my friends).  We were finally able to get across to the seamstress what I think the issues were.

    She is going to make the straps tighter - they were too loose and not making my chest look flattering.  They are also going to make the straps match (which they weren't before).  They are going to take in the pleats on the top of the staps so they aren't going every which way.

    Here's an updated picture  - the dress is just being pinned right now, but if they do these adjustments I think it will look alot better!

    Thanks for all the support!

    The top of the dress will definitely look much better. Your girls will be more secure!

    I missed the previous post but this looks great to me.  I can see why a halter dress could be unflattering if the straps are too loose, you'd think the seamstress would be aware of that too!

    You look beautiful!! It seems to fit you perfect.  Did you go to NYC pronovias?? The dress I want to get for my ceremony in April is from them also.

    that looks fantastic! I love the gorgeous o-ring necklace - where did you find it? I'm looking for something similar, perhaps to add dropping from a pearl choker
