Tips for dress shoppers!


1.) You are not a princess.
2.) Don't buy the first dress you try on.
3.) Try on dresses you don't think will look good on you...being open minded could benefit you.
4.) This does not mean try on every dress the saleslady suggests. She does not have your best intention in mind. Cling to your sense of self and remember...
5.) You are not a princess.
6.) Hormones and your mother crying nearby at the sight of you in a white dress, might make you feel like you have found "the one". Take a picture if you can and wait till the hormones balance, then reassess the dress. It's probably not the one.
7.) Be very careful if you have skin allergies. See my blog to find out why.
8.) Be adventurous. You may not be a princess but you sure are the star of the day. * Just remember that your H2B is the co-star...let him shine in his own way. Even if that means custom cowboy boots with red flames on the side and no tie! (Like my crazy h2b!)
9.) If you find the dress you will know. I knew my dress was a Lazaro dress but tried to find a more affordable one. For weeks I kept trying on dresses and nothing compared.
10.) If your dress is outside your budget, get creative. You could ask for donations to a dress fund instead of undies at your bachelorette party. Or you could sell your dress afterwards and use the money for your honeymoon. Or have a bake sale!
