That and I’d like to lose a little weight. I could always make alterations, sure….but the more extensive the alteration the more I have to pay.

Well after talking to one of my best friends about dresses I was online just looking.  I found some  I really liked as I did before when I browsed online. This time I saw one that was really nice. Keep in mind, I have not gone in to try on any dresses yet so I don’t know what looks good on me. So the dress was nice in the picture.  It was on super duper clearance  and they had my size. hmmmm. A $600.00 dress for $50. You really can’t beat that. 

After about an hour, I bit the bullet. I ordered a wedding dress. Note: I said “a” wedding dress, not “my” wedding dress. I’ve wasted more money than that on other stuff so if it doesn’t work out, its okay. There is no return option so its mine whether I like it or not. Hopefully it works great and that a lot less than I had budgeted! Fingers crossed.
