Dress shopping- Day 2

UGH! I am so tired of trying on dresses and getting depressed. Why are the sample sizes so small? The largest size this place had was a 10. I could barely fit my upper thigh into half the dresses, and I don't consider myself a big girl (maybe I am fooling myself).

This dress was cute- again, only a size ten, so I don't have my hands on my hips because I am mad, I needed to hold the dress closed.

Sarah and I laughed so hard at this dress. So we had to get a picture. I don't know of anyone who would want to add so much room for their hips.

Cute, right? And look at my hands. This one zipped up!

Here is a close up. You see that green paper. I was fanning myself. Why do dressing rooms have to be so hot?


Here is yet another dress. I loved the material, but not the form fitting cups. My girls don't need pre-fab boobs, I have plenty of my own.
Well, the bad news is trying on dresses depressed me. (They tell you not to look at the size, but if you try on 100 dresses and can only zip or lace up 5 of them, it is pretty sad). The good news is, I ordered my dress yesterday.
Which one? Well, you'll just have to wait and see won't you?

Jerk.
P.S. I could totally tell you were holding it together because you can see the rest in the mirror behind you.

Just thought I would make you feel bad for a second...since you made fun of me yesterday.

Guess you'll have to wait and see what I'm wearing too.

Hey I stumbled across your blog, and I just thought I'd tell you about the place I got my dress. It's called Gowns by Pamela, it's in Orem, right off University Parkway. You can buy or rent, and you get jewelry, veil, slip, etc with your order. And the dresses are all custon - you can mix and match tops and bottoms.

Hope this helps!

I think the biggest annoyance about wedding dresses was how the sizes ran small. So not only do they not have your size when they do, they fit wrong. Eventually I found the dress of my dreams and it fit perfectly right off the rack. Well I did have to take off several inches from the bottom, but you know what I mean.

Gowns by Pamela is where my sister Amanda rented her dress. She was so happy with it. I can't wait to see your dress.
