on wedding gown hunting


i'm still scouring the world wide web for wedding gowns.... and since i need to look for two wedding gowns, one for the beach wedding and one for the church wedding it's twice as difficult...... well, it shouldn't really be difficult but i just can't make up my mind...... but i know what i want.....when i look for designs the first thing i look for is that it has to be one-shoulder.

one shoulder.


yep, i love anything one shoulder....my closet is full of those...... if it's asymmetric the better..... i've seen  tons of one-shoulder wedding gowns from different designers and the three that i've been lusting over are rosa clara, pronovias and maggie sottero....now whether or not i am actually buying from these suppliers is a big question mark.....i really don't want to spend too much on something i would only wear once so i just keep looking until i find a gown that i like and something that my conscience agrees to, lol.....


the beach wedding gown hunting.....


so you already know i want a one-shoulder gown.....


the other thing i need to consider is the type of fabric.......... like for the beach wedding i'm looking for something "flowy".......no layered fabric, no heavy drape-like or comforter-pretending-to-be-a-wedding-gown fabric........ i want to feel my gown flowing freely with the wind..... i want to feel like a grecian princess, lol....... anyway, with that being said layered and comforter-like gowns are out...... atleast for the beach wedding gown......

see that gown on the right....that's my kind of flowy gown.... chiffon or lace would be very ideal.......








church wedding gown

now, for the church wedding gown, i'm fine with something heavy........ in fact the more puffy it is the better....... it should be A-line though or something resembling an A-line....... i mean, i would looooove to wear a trumpet gown but man, i really don't think i can pull that off...... i don't have the right abs for

that, lol..... i need something that would hide my bulging muffin top and not flaunt it......... and i also don't want to look like an oversized tadpole....... so, no.....

ofcourse i still want it to be one-shoulder but i'm considering something that would hide my arms too..... i mean, i'm lucky to have thin legs but i wasn't as lucky in the arms department......i've seen some pretty off-shoulders and stunning 3/4 sleeves from allure, pronovias and rosa clara.........

the other thing i'm considering is the halter top....... i've learned that when i show my neck and shoulders and cleavage (haha, as if i have one) it draws attention to that part of my body and my arms wouldn't look as big anymore...... so i don't know..... we'll see...... who knows i might lose weight by then and would be able to pull off a trumpet gown...... so help me batman, lol
