My dress is finally here!

As some of you know, I had some serious dress doubts after buying a dress at a sample sale last October. After the ensuing hunt for my dream dress, I ended up purchasing a dress that I hadn't actually tried on because no one in Calgary had a sample of it.

Fast forward to yesterday. My dress has arrived and I went to try it on! There are some alterations yet to be done but, I'm happy with my decision and (aside from the added expense) have zero regrets. Kudos to Cecilia at the Bridal Centre for working so incredibly hard to make sure I had the best idea of the silhouette and colour before ordering my dress, sight unseen! (Ignore my closed eyes...she was taking a bunch of photos and I didn't know when...lol)

    Thank you, Amber!

    This one's Leah, from MoriLee's Julietta collection.

    I absolutely love the back but do miss the support of a full corset back. (Totally minor point but there's nothing quite like a full corset on my fuller figure!) I'm sure I'll appreciate the difference when I'm still able to breathe at dinner!

    All the best on your dress quest!

    Thank you, Marcie! I can honestly say that if it hadn't been for the consultant, I never would have bought a dress without trying it on! Smiley smile

    Thank you, Julie! I appreciate the kind words. I'm sure I'll be more excited once my current school course is over. It's hard to get excited when I have so much on my plate. lol

    Thanks! I'm happy it is too. (There was some anxiety that I'd put it on and start crying...in a bad way. lol)
