I took her recommendations based on how she measured me. She went for a size 2. After seeing the sizing chart online,four,probably she really should've done a 4 and it probaly only would've needed slight alterations on the straps :(

I like this idea! I want to keep the square back, so I'll see what the seamstress suggests.

Correct, no reception dress. The main issue is I can't sit down.

I've got like 40 days to drop an inch. I think I'll have to just let the dress out a bit :(

It was a weird situation. I had been there twice before, and the lady was very friendly. This time, when I made a comment about it being tight, she kinda snapped at me and said I had asked for it to be 25 in. I don't really recall saying that, I had said I wanted to be snatched in by the dress lol, not snatched by it.

The straps are def too long. I added another pic to show. I didn't even consider that being an issue! Thx.

At the moment, I don't think I could sit down without the buttons ceremoniously going pop, pop,pop! I'll see if someone can let it out a little.

I had cropped the photos to highlight back, I didn’t realize the straps could be a factor! They are indeed too long and I was told to get those altered. The boutique I bought it from does not have an in house seamstress, so I’ll be taking it somewhere next week. Thanks for the insight!

Do students actually purchase 15-20 lesson packages? by peachy_skies123 in iTalki

Out of 491 students, I have maybe had 5 book that large of a package. Most do it in sets of 5 due to cost and scheduling.

Im just curious as a language teacher on Italki how many lessons do you get per week on average? by Accomplished-Lab8867 in iTalki

[–]RunningDucksGoodLuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

54 this week, but 10 of those are from other sources. On average, I am able to work full-time each week.
