Dress Shopping, part 1


Hello! I'm sorry I've been slacking lately with my blog posts--there has been a lot going on between wedding planning, traveling, Bryan waiting to hear from schools/interviewing, etc. This weekend my mom and sister are coming into town for some dress shopping!! We had planned a weekend about a month ago but with all the crazy snow storms we had to cancel it. I was kind of feeling nervous about trying on dresses the first time we were scheduled but now after a little more time, and trying on a few at the J Crew outlet when I was home, I feel prepared and excited! I think I want a sheath style dress with some kind of texture, probably lace, and a sweetheart neckline. Here are some of the dresses I would loveee to try on (though I've heard you should try a bunch of different styles to really see what you like best):


Love this Monique Lhullier dress--


And this one for some reason...its gorgeous!


I tried on this confetti dress at J Crew and really liked it, though I wasn't convinced it was the one


Ok I am obsessed! with this dress--from Jim Helm, I love the darker fabric underneath and all the beautiful lace

  1. I love the first one but especially the last one! The first one is a little low cut, maybe? It might just be that I don't like that girl's boobs. They are kind of saggy, right?

    Anyway, they are gorgeous! It sounds kind of like how I described my dress! So much fun!
