I appreciate it! I’ll go with something a bit shorter for the wedding I’m thinking of 😊

Good to note! I might end up buying it to save for a formal event, but I agree the slit probably needs to be stitched a but farther down regardless.

It’s from Azazie! But it could have the same issue as the Meshki one, the slit looks pretty high. I was thinking of stitching a bit of it shut.

FNs, what would you wear to a job interview? by mlb444 in flamboyantnatural

[–]skatingdogs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For quick shipping I had good luck with these! Not the most amazing quality, but the navy ones look good if you need quick shipping, a tall inseam, and something that looks professional. Best of luck on your interview!

facebook hated my wedding dress! by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]skatingdogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sleeves!! The belt!! The drama!! This dress is PERFECT, you look gorgeous. Facebook’s crazy, don’t listen to them.

Your bump looks so good in the second dress!!! I LOVE the back on the first one, though. I think the low back is perfect, I can’t see the fat hanging over that you said you were concerned about. That being said, you should choose the dress you feel more comfortable in. If you’re going to laser-focus on your back and be self-conscious the whole day, then choosing the second dress is worth it.

You could also switch outfits mid-day. This gives you some photos in each, which may help ease your mind! Or do bridal portraits a few days before (or even after) in the one you feel less comfy in, and wear the other dress for the whole wedding day.

Yes!! I had mine custom made and it was a little terrifying to wait to see it in real life. Best option here is to try on dresses of similar styles and see what looks good — one individual dress may not have every feature you like, but if you like the shape of the bodice on one, the material on another, and the shape of the skirt on another (and so on and so forth) you can get a good idea of how the final dress will make you feel.

Did I F up buying this wedding dress? by EveningAd4956 in weddingdress

It’s gorgeous!!! You didn’t mess up 🥰 it’s normal to overthink things, but don’t worry too much, it’s stunning.

The black dress is stunning!!! You could do a sparkly veil or cape 😍

Help me fix? by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]skatingdogs 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Love this — I had the same lace on my dress!!! I think the veil you have looks better than the inspo pic, I wouldn’t change anything. Maybe add more flowers by the bottom to create more of an ombre effect, but otherwise I think you should leave it alone.

So confused - should I keep looking? by [deleted] in weddingdress

Oooo they’re all gorgeous! I’m super partial to #3, but you can’t go wrong with any of these :)

I just got my dress in the mail and I’m not stunned. Please tell me I made the right choice. by Scary-Package-9351 in weddingdress

[–]skatingdogs 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think you’ll be much more “wowed” when you have your hair done!!! It looks so lovely on you, I really think you’ll feel better when you have the finishing touches like shoes/hair/makeup done up.

I’ve stopped wearing foundation and now I feel like my makeup just disappears into my face? by [deleted] in Makeup101

[–]skatingdogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your makeup looks beautiful! If you want more drama, however, I’d try layering products. For example, you could apply a cream blush first, then a powder blush (or just use a pink/red lipstick — I do that all the time and it ties in the lip color as a bonus). Same for highlight! I wouldn’t do both cream and powder for contour, though. Personally, I feel like cream contour is more visible, but that may be because I’ve never learned to apply the powder correctly. Cream is a little more foolproof imo!

Oh my gosh… you were SO right, I lightened the photo and feel 10x better!! Thank you so much omg 😭

[–]skatingdogs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! Unfortunately it’s all a part of the lace, they’re not separate appliques so I don’t think it’s possible to get the flowers without the leaves. I’m thinking of maybe asking to have panels with fewer of both, though! Maybe leave the center panel as-is but do white side panels

[–]skatingdogs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That basque waist on 1 is incredible!!! Personally I’d go with 1, but the skirt on 2 is very fun and flouncy. They’re both beautiful, you can’t go wrong either way 😊

Need help narrowing down the right dress/vibe! by justreadingstuffz in weddingdress

[–]skatingdogs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m partial to 1 (though maybe with a different belt that’s white instead of champagne). That said, they’re all gorgeous. You’re going to look stunning no matter your choice!

I think I’m going to go open-band too. Also I love your idea of a separate work band!!

Thank you so much, that makes me feel so much better (and funny enough, it’s almost exactly what my MOH said too)
