Our Future Looks Whootastic!

I believe in miracles!

A miracle has taken place.

I found a dress that I actually liked.

Really liked.

Perhaps, I could even say that I loved?

The dress is by Augusta Jones and its a very simple but well constructed gown with beautiful lace overlay. (See picture)

I loved the way I felt in this dress. It was so comfortable and easy to move in!

Unfortunately, the dress was only in the store for that one day as part of a trunk show. So I can't try it on again to see if I still love it.

Because the dress costs much more than I originally intended to spend, I just can't say yes to it without being able to try it on at least one more time.

The store also has a no picture policy so I can't even look at a picture to help me make a final decision.

Major Bummer!

Although I didn't end up buying the dress, we left that store and my spirits were much higher. There was hope for me yet!

We ended up at another bridal store, where my Mom and my cousin ended up pulling a dozen dresses for me to try on that had similar features of the Augusta Jones dress.

And another miracle happened! I found another dress that I really like!

Here is a picture of me (sans head) in the Casa Blanca Bridal gown that I really liked.

The bolero is not actually part of the dress, but I would wear something similar since I am going for a more modest and look.

Added bonus: its much less expensive than the Augusta Jones dress!

I told myself I would revisit this dress in a week or so and see if I still am in love with it.

How did you know when you found the right dress?
