So, I have been slckin on looking for a dress, but my girlfriend who just got engaged 2 weeks ago sent me a text saying she got her dress for $99 at David's Bridal, so i went ou fully expecting to find nothing in my size that was good quality. I went to 3 different shops, by the 3rd one i was ready to go home but my bridesmaid convinced me to look. I go to the rack and find a gorgeous Oleg Cassini gown with lots of pearl beading on top and a tulle skirt for $99, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT, a designer gown for $99. It was only 2 sizes too small, so I have til next August to drop 40 lbs. that I needed to lose anyway. I am so hype. I will post pictures soon.

Woo Hoo!!
Big check off my list.. Okay so I have a friend at work who got married a little over 2 years ago.. Well she bought this fabulous Maggie Sottero dress for herself .. It was the last one and the style was discontinued... Well the dress normally retailed at around 1200.00, she got it at a bridal show for 350.00.. Well she didn't lose the weight to get into the dress... So she ended up buying a second.. So she has this beautiful dress and nothing to do with it... That's where I come in.. I had told everyone in an earlier post I work at David's Bridal part-time and can't find a dress there to save my life!!. Thank the LORD.. I love the dress she has it fits my style perfectly and I wouldn't hat to lose much weight!!! I am so excited.. I'll post pic as soon as I get it home and figure out how to post..
