During the snowpacolypse, I only ventured out of our apartment once. While out, I figured I might as well try on dresses. So I went to Lord and Taylor and Loehmanns. Lord and Taylor was a little disappointing. I tried on the OC dress and the purple Laundry dress. Meh.
Loehmanns was surprisingly good. They had a large number of Nicole Miller wedding dresses on super sale. The first one with the funny bottom was originally $2600, but they were selling it for $500.
The Calvin Klein to the right was only $80 so I almost bought it as back up. I tried on a couple others, but they weren’t picture worthy at all. I couldn’t figure out how to get the Marchessa halter dress on properly. It kept making an extra back twist. I don’t know how widespread the wedding dress section at Loehmanns is, but I would suggest popping by your local store.
On the other hand, I think I have refound my inspiration in Aly and Elroi’s wedding(it was actually the first post I looked at on So You’re Engayged.) I love the blue dress and the big messy hair.
all photos obviously by me




My vote is still for the BCBG lace and satin dress. I pass it on the way to work everyday and I think of you, in the most non-stalker way possible…You looked great it that one!
The Calvin Klein dress is GORGEOUS on you!! And for $80 I say buy it!
@Alison I think that is sweet and not stalkery. My dress will probably end up being from BCBG, I like so many of their dresses.
@Ginger Thank you! It was so comfortable and cheap! It had a weird spot on it though.
I think you looked great in all of the BCBG dresses. I can’t wait to see the pics from this wedding-it’s going to be awesome.
They are going to be awesome cause Kelly is taking the pictures! (can you tell I am happy about that?)
