The Dress Saga

On Monday, I went to Alfred Angelo to try on this dress.  It was modest (ish), and most importantly within my budget (under $800).  It worked, but I didn't love it.  They totally tried to pressure me into ordering the dress right then and there, but I was not having it.  I told them if I wanted it, I would call them.  

So the next day, I dove deep into all my options.  I actually searched craigslist, and guess what, I found a dressmaker that I think is going to work out really well!  The best thing is I'll be able to be here during the whole process.  I'll let you know how it goes, but I'm feeling good.  I am naturally picky when it comes to my style, so I think finding a dressmaker is the only way for me.  Every dress I've tried on, I've wanted to change something about it, and this way I can!  Below are some rough sketches of what I'm envisioning.  

Hope this works out!
