Went dress shopping again!!!

OK so I tried on a bizillion dresses already, and I tried on a Priscilla of Boston that I LOVE which is totally out of my price range! Then I retry on the Alvina Valenta I really like, and really liked it again. But I didn't get the same wow. However I am thinking of adding the beading that I loved so much onto the Alvina for an additional charge, of course, but I think it'll make me LOVE it .. at half the price! What would you do?

I think so too! I thought I had my mind figured out. Leave it to mom to confuse me though....

yup i had mine all figured out till mom came along! but ya know what she was right! i went with her pick. but if you can get the dress to 'look' like the other one and a fraction of the cost then deff go for it!!! save the money and put it towards somthing else you may have been skipping out on.

I say get the dress that makes you happy and forget about the price. You can always turn a trick or two if need be...kidding! But seriously, you said you've been having trouble finding THE dress so if you found something you love then forget the price and get the dress!

Well how much beading do you want to get? see i added extra beading to the whole bottom of my dress in the front and it actually came out to alot, i was even surprised...so ask first how much it would cost to do this and then see what the price difference would be. If it wont be that big of a difference after that then maybe what for a POB trunk show to get it for a bit less

the only thing i didnt like about my dress was i thought the bottom was too plain SO since it was less than i thought i would spend i added the crystals to the bottom

and now i am in love ( even though i haven't seen it yet )

i think you should just add to it - then it will be like you have a couture dress that no one else will have

do you get worried about what it would look like? i get nervous sometimes since i added something and not sure how it will look when its done
