Having some minor dress regret...

Trish, on September 24, 2019 at 20:26 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 5
Okay so I dont know if I’m just tripping out or what but I’m starting to second guess my dress. To be clear everything else I tried on was definitely “not it”. I fell in love with this dress instantly. It’s blush, poofy af, and I felt like a princess. Exactly what I wanted to feel like. But I’m having some issues now. I always thought I wanted sleeves because I’m a bit self conscious of my arms. Also, I feel like my boobs look out of control. Like I keep thinking of memes I see when brides are just falling out of their dresses and I DO NOT want to feel like that. I bought the originally $8000 dress at the Kleinfelds sample sale for $800 so I bought it as is. I don’t even know if I could have it altered to show less boobies just because of the intricacy of the bodice...
i do hope to lose about 15 lbs before my 09/26/2020 wedding but like will I just have big old saggy bags flopping around? Haha oh man I’m losin it
Did you go though this? How’d you deal?

    Your dress is gorgeous! I would take it somewhere to get altered and when you are getting straps tightened- saw the clips in photos- I would ask what she is able to do. Also, I told myself I wanted to loose weight and ended up forgetting. Try to love what you have and be comfortable in the dress as you are currently incase you don't loose it. I attempted the last month and half to loose weight and helped and I did. But I left hard core to last second.

    Your dress is beautiful!! As for the arms - girl, I feel the same way! My dress is v-neck and I've got boobs for DAYYYYSS plus my arms are so not what a 22 year old should have Smiley tongue

    I'm sure that if you focus on the dress and the fact that you get to walk down the aisle to the love of your life that nothing else will matter. (Especially since we are our own worst critics and you have to consider, do you look at other people and point out things like that - do you even notice things like that on other people? Nope.)

    That dress is seriously stunning on you! If you're concerned about the bustline, you could always add some tulle straight across to contain things. It's a really beautiful dress in such a fun colour!

    Love this dress! So beautiful.
    For sure talk to a seamstress, they can work some magic! My cousin had sleeves added to her dress a week before the wedding because of the weather, if that can be done you have plenty of time to add sleeves if you want to!
    Seamstresses do such an amazing job and they can make sure they alter it to keep the girls in! If not, lots of tape! Lol

    Okay first that dress is stunning! Second I absolutely went through this and was having nightmares. My mom ended up coming down and jacking me up and helping me to see the full picture. After having it altered I am fully in love with my dress. I think most brides go through this. All I can say is talk to a seamstress they can work some serious magic. And body/clothing tape can help keep your girls contained if need be. But I think it would be fine to have it altered a bit. Also don't feel bad about your arms, I'm pretty sure this is every woman's insecurity. You are beautiful and no one will be think omg she looks awful look at how bad her arms look. Everyone will be saying omg she looks like a princess what a radiant goddess she is!
