I made you all wait for this post and i promise you there is a good reason why.
So i told you all i attended a wedding during Labor Day weekend and yes, it was so much fun. After deliberating on what to wear for too long i decided on a knee length textured dress- A foil empire dress by Chaps via Kohl's. The only problem was, they didn't have my size. It was two sizes bigger than my actual size, but i ordered it anyway. I planned to have it adjusted to my size, but i already knew i was so short of time. Well, luckily the dress came just a couple of days before the wedding, but i was so scared of adjusting it. Why?
-I didn't want to take the risk of ruining the original beauty of the dress.
-I didn't want to to take chances and then the dress might end up not being ready in time.
I had a backup dress, but i really wanted to wear this dress. The wedding was a late afternoon wedding with a late night party to follow and i knew it will be a perfect dress from day to night. Anyway, long story short, i wore the dress the way it was to the wedding, but when we came back to Toronto, i had it taken in a little bit and cut short. Love the new length and fit, but looking at the photos side by side, it almost makes me wish i didn't. Eeeek!!
This is what the original dress looked like before adjusting it......
I know it is too late now, but i still like the dress short regardless. You be the judge- Better long or short?
