the one.

i found it. the one. and i'm not talking about the boy. i found the dress today.

my mum and i went shopping. i was a little nervous. what if i didn't find anything. what if i looked like a cow in everything.

but i found it.

i went in thinking that i knew what i was doing. i had pictures and lists. but the things i wanted, were not the things that looked good on me. in the end i fell in love with a dress that zips up, is strapless and ivory but makes me look beautiful and feel like a bride.

i'm not posting a picture, because i can't find one online that does it justice.

but:
-it's a soft light ivory colour that makes my skin look radiant and tan (if that is possible)
-it's a slim a line. enough of a skirt and train that i feel like a bride, slim enough that i look tall and can move easily.
- it's strapless with a zip up - i know, i'm surprised as you - but its so flattering!
- it's chiffon and embroidered lace (soft and touchable)
- little bit of beading and sparkle - simple but with romantic touches so i feel like a girl

it will be here in 3 months - so excited! on to shoe shopping and earring hunting!
