Another dress before ring story!!!

[DMBsGirl]

Hi ladies!
Well after seeing bronniejade''s amazing ebay score of that beautiful maggie sottero dress, I decided to start checking out ebay for dresses and found this fabulous creation!!! Through my dress research (yes not engaged but very much wedding obsessed), I continued to look at Allure gowns and loved them because of their use of crystals (gotta have some bling!) Well i just WON the dress!!!!!!
I was so nervous when I was bidding that I was shaking! I can''t believe I won it, and at such a great price. I will post pics when it arrives.

wow, sounds awesome. And, if the girl is being honest, I think it is nice there is not a bad story behind it!

Very exciting find DMBgirl! I hope it turns out to be everything you want and more!!!

Gorgeous dress, and I bet you wouldn''t have a hard time reselling it if it doesn''t fit or you don''t end up liking it for whatever reason.

It sure is!!! Thanks for inspiring me!

I thought my FF would think I was nuts for getting the dress before we were engaged but he didn''t react that way at all (I didnt let him see it btw). I still can''t believe I got this dress for this price, the cheapest I found it online was over $600, and 12 weeks for delivery time! Once I''m engaged I hope to get married ASAP, I have no desire to be a bride in waiting very long (after 8 yrs of being a girlfriend I have no desire to prolong it!) So hopefully the dress fits well and I will have one less thing to worry about when the time comes.

Fab dress - and a great price!!!

 

[DMBsGirl]

Well the dress arrived!!! It is beyond gorgeous, brand spanking new, still had the tag on it from the bridal shop, $1227. I can''t believe i paid less than $360 for it!!!! it''s a lil big in the boob area and a bit tight, but i am trying to lose weight anyway. Also it seems to be made for someone with a longer torso, the boob part comes up a bit higher than i''d like. Can a seamstress fix this? k, here are pics!

Wow, it looks great on you! I think a good seamstress can fix just about anything.

It''s gorgeous, DMBsGirl! I must say, I looked at the eBay pictures first and wasn''t very impressed, but it looks fantastic on YOU! You two have really got me thinking about dresses on eBay now, but I think I''m a little too chicken.

Congrats on a beautiful dress!
