Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

I'm leaving in a little while to go dress shopping with my mom and MOH. I'm so excited!!! I'll let you know how it goes. I'm gonna show them the dresses I tried on last time

UPDATE

So i'm back from dress shopping! And originally I liked dresses that had straps on them but we ruled those out for various reasons. The ones we picked made me look shorter than I am already and the strapless actually flattered my body more.

We narrowed it down to 3:

Maggie Sottero Adalaide

Pronovias San Patrick Paraiso

Sophia Tolli Heather

The Maggie and Sophia were my favorites. The Maggie was glamarous and the Sophia was just beautiful. Both different looks. So it's gonna be hard to choose. I can't wait to go back and see them again. I'm also gonna go to other stores though to dry on different dresses. Here are the links to the 3 I tried on. Let me know which you like!!! Thanks!!!

Re: Dress shopping!

Thanks! Yea, we registered at Williams-Sonoma. We loved their pots and pans and everyday drinking glasses and bar glasses. The silverware and cooking utensils were really nice too. When we went to Macy's we liked their stuff but the layout of the store wasn't great so we went to BBB and loved it so much better there so we are registered there too! Their china was beautiful and they have such a great selection of bedding and towels and such.

That is great. I originally wanted to register at Macy's but decided on BBB instead. there prices are a lot better and they just have a huge selection of stuff. I also feel like that is more conveinient for people. Williams-Sonoma is very nice too.

Re: Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

Re: Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

I really like the Maggie Sotero

Re: Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

it's really hard to choose between the 2 you like. they both have amazing qualities. think the sophia is just so classic looking and so i'll have to give my vote to that one. good luck with your other try ons

Re: Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

well my dear.. they are two totally different looks!!! both beautiful but very different! which one gives you the jitters when you put it on??

im glad you had a good experience!!!

Re: Dress shopping! (UPDATE)

I really love the Maggie. A girl on here, I think her review is up, had that dress and it looked stunning.

Like Danielle said, go with the one that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Its the one that you dream about and never wanna take off!
