Help me pick a dress, please!
My cousin is doing a black&white wedding the first week of June and I'm looking for a cute dress. Help me pick. I really like A because it's flowy.. but I really like B because it's party-ish. Although it's b&w, it's outdoors at my uncles mansion. Since My wedding, my waist is the same size, but my asss and hips are back to my standard large. Which would you pick??
A

B

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermThis is what I was afraid of lol
I really, really like A but I'm super paranoid that the flowy part will look weird cause the front will be flat and the back will be BAM. Ya know. I don't want it to look like it's pulling the material to cover my asss.
That's why I threw B in there cause it allows my asss to be free lol
This was my thought too
I also was "blessed" with a giant backside...and agree that it's really difficult to find a dress that flatters that.
That being said, I love dress A. Dress B is cute, but not nearly as cute as the other. I also agree with PP's that A is more dressy and "wedding appropriate. But I guess it depends on the material and which flows better, and "clings" less!

Me too, and I do tend to like dresses like B better for that reason but I think that A looks more formal/wedding-like. What about something like this:
I have this in grey and I love love love it! I have another dress that is a spandex/cotton on top and a satin on the bottom and I love it also, like this:
Love the first dress in this post Ashlee...where from? Other colors?
Diito! I love that first dress.
Love this!!! Where can I purchase??!

Maybe I could order online and have it shipped to my cousins house where I stay.. that kinda freaks me out because what if it doesn't fit my bootie lol
I could bring my "go-to" dress just in case I guess. I just don't like how this one hugs my backside when I tried it on the other day!
I have two weeks to fix that lol
UPS and Fed Ex love me because I order everything online.
If it's two weeks away, couldn't you have it shipped to your house so you know ahead of time if it will fit or not?
And I know what you mean...everything hugs my booty and it's not cute...at all!
Megan & Chris
Can you tell I'm not an online shopper lol I guess you're right I could have it to my house way before I'd be leaving. Thank you!!
Haha! Well, now that I say that, I hope it makes it to you! I guess every place is different. But surely two weeks would be plenty. Since you have a timeframe, though, I would probably call just to see what their processing time is so you can choose the right shipping option.
And of course as soon as I say you should do that, I got a shipping notice from an order I placed with Zulily (sort of like Gilt for babies) probably two weeks ago. But they always take a long time, which is annoying. Of course, I ordered something to give to my nephew while he's here, and now it won't make it before they leave. So I'm kind of upset about that.
Megan & Chris
Oh you're kidding!! That's the freakn worst!! When you plan it so perfectly then it doesn't arrive on time.. so annoying!
They say the dress is in stock and ships in 1-2 biz days so I should be fine.
Awesome. Now you just need Ashlee!
Good luck! I hope it works out.
