    A I shared before, I had thought I had found my dress, after trying on 30-40 dresses, but I still has some nagging doubts. I had gone in wanting an all lace dress, and the one I thought I had found was nothing of the sort.

    I made a poll and asked if I should stop trying on dresses and just ordered that dress, and most people advised me to stop trying on dresses. I ignored the advice, and I am glad I did.

    I decided to take one last weekend and go on a dress-trying blitz. I went to another 4 places, and went back to the place where I tried on dresses first.

    I had already tried on this dress (in a size that was about 4 sizes too small) and didn't love it ... but this time they had the dress in close my size, and I fell in love. 

    I am going to order it on monday when I go back home (I am bringing my 92 year old grandma, as well as my Omi (my other grandma), mom and sisters with me so they can all get a peek when I order it.

    The dress I am going to order is Maggie Sottero Vienna.

    Here are the pictures of the dress I almost bought (the one with black embroidery - I would have ordered it in Ivory, tone on tone), and a picture of the dress I will be ordering (I stole the picture off of google images, since we forgot to take pics)
