Dressing for a wedding is stressful, more so when you're a girl. Being a guy means you pick up a suit, pick out a shirt and dress shoes and you're good to go. Being a girl is much more complicated! Depending on how dressy the wedding is depends on what kind of dress you buy. Sparkles or no sparkles. Is the wedding outside because that'll have an affect on whether you wear heels or wedges. Hair up or hair down. What's the weather like. So many variables to consider!
Dean and I are going to a wedding today. He easily figured out he was going to buy a neutral coloured suit, navy shirt and a matching tie. For me it was much more difficult! I went to my work place and got the girls to help me. I try on every suitable dress, but not too dressy dress and nothing fit me properly. I'm almost a perfect hourglass shape plus I have hips and a butt so I can be hard to fit even though everyone tries to achieve the perfect hourglass illusion. The one dress I really liked was too right across my butt. I felt defeated and was ready to go to the wedding naked when one of the girls brought me a tulip cut navy pencil skirt and a flowy white top. It worked, it fit, it was good. Added some fantastic Vince Camuto brown and gold wedges and a great necklace and I was ready to go.
The ceremony was beautiful and thankfully the weather cleared up as it rained an hour before the wedding. Time to relax a bit before the big feast and drinks.
