Well, with everyone''s talk about finding a dress before receiving a ring, I decided to jump on the bandwagon and start looking at dresses. Like I said, you ladies are a bad influence. I told my boyfriend I was looking, and I was trying to get him to give me an idea of what he would prefer, and he immediately said, "Oh, no--are you going to be one of those girls who has a dress before a ring?" I told him he better hurry up with the proposal if he didn''t want that to happen!
Anyway, I was mostly just browsing the dresses many of the BIW had posted, and I also looked through the dresses at the Knot. I can tell that my boyfriend prefers the strapless look, and I have athletic shoulders, so I know that will look good on me. I''d also prefer to have something in an A-line, as my hourglass figure is a bit bottom-heavy. I have pale skin and red hair, so I''m wondering if maybe ivory will look better on me, but I feel I''ve earned the right to wear white! I think I''ll just have to wait until I actually start trying on some dresses to know for sure.
So I found a dress I love, but I''m not having much luck finding it in a store. The store in NYC where the Knot claims it is available doesn''t even say it carries that line on their Web site. The line''s Web site says the line is carried at a different store in NYC, but the Knot doesn''t list that store as carrying that specific dress! So I was wondering if you ladies could lend me some assistance. It is a Romantic Bridals dress, and the style number is 8600. I''m a little too embarrassed to just call these places up without even so much as an engagement ring on my finger, as I know I''ll be tempted to go try it on right away.
Even if you don''t know where to find it, what do you think? Here it is, in all its glory:
