hotgurl Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Okay, update!!!! I can make the train into a cathedral for $100 extra dollars!!! YAYAYAYA!!!!!!! Who wants to vote for the Allure dress? what do you think? It sounds to me like this is your dress. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lauriebell82 Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 what do you think? It sounds to me like this is your dress. Yeah, it is. It is going to look gorgeous. I am very curious what the one Maggie dress will look like on me so I think I will try it on just to compare. But yeah, this is going to be my dress. I am SO excited I can get the train extended. I think it will actually look even prettier and more elegant with a longer train especially because of the lace! And once it's actually in my size (the dress is clipped, it's like 3 sizes to big) it will look awesome!!! http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?keywordText=Winnie&keywordType=any&page=0&pageSize=15&style=A3290HC Link to post Share on other sites
oceangrl Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 You look the most comfortable in the allure lace dress, but it looks too big on you....like around the waist and bust....are they going to pull the bust area up a little? It would look a lot better if the horizontal solid lace wrapped a little bit higher and tighter cuz they say thats the thinnest part of a woman's waste.....right under the bust.

oceangrl Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 (edited) And once it's actually in my size (the dress is clipped, it's like 3 sizes to big) it will look awesome!!!Oh heh!! Ok, nevermind! I think you should try the maggie dress, I like the halter style...have you tried halter styles yet? Edited November 3, 2009 by oceangrl Link to post Share on other sites
MindoverMatter Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 I think you need to step back from the dresses for a while. You are so easily influenced, you might end up picking something that isn't really you. Link to post Share on other sites

Are you saying the Maggie is now the dress, or the Allure is the dress? You're so easily influenced, LB...whether it be about a dress, or your job search. Do what's right for YOU, not what anyone else wants/thinks. Link to post Share on other sites

You are so easily influenced, you might end up picking something that isn't really you. Unfortunately I can't do that. Dresses take 6-8 months to come in, our wedding is in a little over 10 months. I need to have time to alter it so I need to chose a dress within the next few weeks. I like the Allure dress the best. I did want to try on the other one just to see what it looks like on me.

I haven't tried the maggie dress on but I like the way it looks and I'm curious to see what it looks like on me. I love the Allure dress ESPECIALY since I can get the train extended. I want to see which of the two looks better on me and I think is more "me" and then I will decide. (they are both lace) Link to post Share on other sites

I really think that deep down this is the dress for you. Yeah me too!!!! The train will look beautiful longer also! I am going to try on the other dress today to see what it looks like because it's a lot like the other one. It may look horrible though I don't know! Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lauriebell82 Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 So I tried the other dress on..it was nice but NOTHING compared to the lace one!!!! And now that I can have my long train I found MY DRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! :D:D:D Link to post Share on other sites
Lucky_One Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Glad you have made a decision! Did your mom like it after all? Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lauriebell82 Posted November 8, 2009 Author Share Posted November 8, 2009 Well she hasnt seen it yet. We are going tomorrow. I told her to pretend she likes it though even if she doesnt. The accessories are extremely overpriced there so I guess we will have to buy them at Davids Bridal. The problem is that I wont know whether or not they will match my dress. Maybe they will let me try on the dress there or bring it in to see if they go with the dress.... Link to post Share on other sites

I`d sure they probably wouldn`t mind you bringing your dress as long as it`s in the bag for the most part. Wouldn`t want the other customers to see what you found elsewhere!!! But in the end, a sale is a sale! They can`t(and shouldn`t) complain about that. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lauriebell82 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 Grrrr, now my mom is trying to talk me out of buying that dress. She says it isn't flattering like pick up gowns are. I don't get that, I think that's actually the ultimate flattering dress! Link to post Share on other sites

If that's true, I'm not sure why you're giving her opinion on YOUR dress for YOUR big day any weight. You know the Allure lace dress is "the one." Just commit to it. Link to post Share on other sites

Well she is paying for it so I guess I feel a little guilty. Mentally ill or not she's still my mom ya know? Link to post Share on other sites
Lucky_One Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Yes, she's still your mom. Did you sit down and really talk to her as I suggested a few pages ago? Another option is to have your father go with you for buying your dress. Whether your mom or your dad writes the check really doesn't make any difference, and he can probably temper your mom's reactions. Link to post Share on other sites
Mary3 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Well friends whenever we are going to choose our wedding dress there is always a question that how was our bridesmaids dress. I would like to share a link with you its Nexteve.com, they offer bridesmaids dresses at very cheap rates, with good quality material. There are many dresses to choose with great colors and designs.... This sure sounds like advertising ....I don't believe this is allowed... Link to post Share on other sites
