Show Me Your Almost Dress! (or dresses in my case Lol)

Emly, on June 25, 2019 at 10:07 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 8

Alright beautiful ladies! I see so many posts about girls feeling so bad and guilty for not loving the dress they originally said yes to. Dress regret is REAL and NORMAL and OK!!! I am now on my 3rd dress because I listened to what other people wanted and at the time really did love the dresses, they just weren't me. I have always been someone who is modest but I love to have something different about the clothes that I wear, why should that change when I'm wearing my wedding dress. The first two dresses I bought were beautiful, but they were also too plain for me, there was really no element of "ooh, that's so pretty" to them. The dress I have now has that factor and then some! Its got the back detail that I LOVE and it just fits me and my personality. Basically what I'm trying to say is don't try to make yourself fit the dress, make the dress fit you and your personality and if you feel like you bought a dress that doesn't do that, Girl go get you a dress that does!!

My first DressI Loved this dress... at the time... It makes my body look amazing!! But over time it started looking like a costume to me. When I tried it on for the last time, I just felt so not my self.Show Me Your Almost Dress! (or dresses in my case Lol) 1

My Second DressThis is by far the worst one LOL, beautiful dress, sure, but not for a June wedding and it just didn't flatter me at all. I bought this dress because my grandma loved it!!Show Me Your Almost Dress! (or dresses in my case Lol) 2

THE DressThis is MY dress!! (sorry about the awful picture lol, its much harder take decent pictures alone Smiley xd ) It is so comfy and I just feel so me in this dress!! My grandma will probably hate it, but that's ok, its ok to get what you want sometimes.Show Me Your Almost Dress! (or dresses in my case Lol) 3


Dress Regret is OK so lets show other unsure brides that! Show me your almost dresses!!

    The last one is much more detailed and more flattering on you compared to the other two. The other two were also pretty though!
    I don't have a picture of me in it but here's the other dress I bought and didn't end up using:

    It was also the first dress I bought.

    OMG i actually bought the second dress but luckily i was able to exchange for the dress I am now waiting to arrive. After looking at the pictures I realized I hated how it made my hips look extremely wide. I no longer have the picture of it but here is my dress. This is the sample dress I ordered it in white it has specks of gold through out the entire dress (the white dress will have silver specks) the sparkles like glitter in the light

    This was my almost dress! I loved it, until I put on MY DRESS! Then I KNEW it wasn’t right. Only thing I liked better is that it had pockets lol. Gorgeous, but not right

    also I tried on your dress #2 lol or at least something similar

    I still find myself wondering whether I bought the right dress xD even though I know my dress that I bought will look even better with a proper ball gown slip, and I remember feeling absolutely beautiful in it while in the store, but I've only been able to put my actual dress on once briefly after it came in last weekend, and it's a bit big and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I know I'm probably being silly lol.
