Wedding Dress Woes

Lately I have been experiencing the worst case of wedding dress woes. I simply cannot decide if I like the wedding dress that I have or not! One minute I think I'll love it, the next I know I won't. It's such a stunning dress but it just doesn't feel like 'me' sometimes. I want something with a fuller skirt. Although, the train on this one is huge. I thought of bustling up the train to make the skirt appear fuller but I'm just not sure. The silk of this dress is so gorgeous that I know I'd have to pay for a couture gown to get the same kind of quality.

Ever since High School I've loved the Justina McCaffrey silk wedding gowns. But they are super pricey. I don't think I could stand spending that kind of money on a wedding dress. Although part of me (probably some evil part) wants to! Ha!

The other day while searching for wedding shoes for my current dress I tried on several silk wedding gowns in similar styles to the McCaffrey dresses that I adore. But we'd have to go to a really upscale shop that sells couture dresses to try on the real thing. Some part of me wants to make a dress, too. So I'm super confused. I just want it to be perfect. And I'm oh so picky when it comes to quality and design. : ( I think mom and I might go try on wedding dresses tomorrow after work. Then maybe I'll have a better idea of what I want?

Lately I've been working on making bags to sell on Etsy! I'm just about ready to open my shop! : ) I'm really excited. Of course, I love all of the bags and want to keep one of each style and fabric! I'm trying to stop myself. It would be good advertisement though if I had some to carry, wouldn't it? ; )
