I am really not good at dresses, or anything. I don’t like them, but…I’m on a diet and remembered that my dad is getting married soon. So,…I need a dress to wear.
I’d prefer one with sleeves, or one that had a back, or one that didn’t show off my horrible legs, but…I don’t suppose I’d be allowed to go dressed as a nun.
So, I have found two…but I am still open to suggestions. xD I encourage them.
P.S. Amy looks fantastic on the front page, don’t you think? I’ve not been here in a bit, so…it’s probably not as new.
I have boobs too. xD and thought about the problem of a strapless dress.
It’s going to be in North Carolina, but I’m not sure if it’s going to be inside or outside.
I was thinking of having a short sleeved dress and then buying or making a… shoulder wrap sort of thing. In case it is cold, then, not using it if it’s not.
I should actually talk to my dad about some of this first. xD All I know is that, it’s going to happen. Here, in Nc. and. I have to go.
Either works.
I like looking online though, so maybe from a store, just browse what they have online first?
There’s two local dress stores downtown, but they’re very small and more like prom dresses and bridal gowns and I’m trying to find something more casual.
If the wedding isn’t going to be too formal, you could probably get away with a long skirt and cute top, and flats. It completely depends on where (beach vs. country club), when and what time (afternoon will be more casual, evening more formal). But that first dress is adorable.
I think both are super cute but I’d probably go with the 2nd one, it looks more weddingy to me. You could wear some cute flats with either and still make it dressy.
[color=blue]I just went through this lol. I like the first one … you would be able to find a wrap to go over it! I bought 2 wraps at David’s bridal last Friday-one for me and one for DD to wear over her wedding gown when she leaves the church to go to the reception. Good luck and have fun!
If you go to the lingerie dept of a department store, the salespeople there will be able to help you find a bra that will work under the dress. A strapless bra will work under the first dress, and a regular bra may be ok under the second, depending on what the back looks like.
Strapless bra or convertible are amazing for these kind of dresses. Convertible bras allow you to adjust the straps all sorts of ways to accommodate your dress. If you are going to get a dress with straps I would get a convertible bra. I just prefer to have straps over feeling like my bra is slipping all night :teehee: Just make sure you get one the really fits well. My SIL would go bra less but she is not well endowed at all.
They can be, and they can’t be. Go to a department store, and try some on, and if you have your dress, bring it with, try it on with the dress, and see what feels most comfortable to you!
I had to buy a super special bra for my prom dress, because it had spaghetti straps, and a low back with laces across the back.
So I had to get something that went around my waist below the dress back (I think I safety-pinned it to the back of the dress to be sure it wouldn’t move) that came all the way up my torso. I just had a regular strapless bra for my junior prom dress, because it had a regular back with spaghetti straps.

My personal experience if you have an excess in the boobage area they really don’t work well at all. Strapless bras work well up to a certian cup size, then after that, they really aren’t that good.
Depends on how boobalicious you are. I would sugest going to a store that specializes in bras, not a department store if you are a size D or larger. I wore a strapless to my Junior Prom (a while ago :teehee: ), I was smaller then. But I went to a store specifically for that, and I’m glad I did.
If you have a Nordstrom near you, they have professional bra fitters there. I love the last dress you posted, but I was going to mention the color thing- it’s considered rude to wear white since it “detracts” from the bride. I love the 2nd dress on your first post, too!
