Another late night/early morning journal =p I went dress shopping for a dress for my husband's brother's outdoor wedding on Saturday. I found a dress I really liked pretty quick and picked up a size 10 to try on. The size 10 was too big so I went to look for a size 8... they were out. The next size they had was size 6. So I tried on lots of other dresses and kept coming back to how much I liked this dress and style. Finally I tried on the 6 and was pretty shocked it zipped up. It was a little tight, but not in any way "I'm about to break a seam" too tight. More like, in another 5-10lbs or inch off it'll fit perfect. I tried both dresses on again for my husband and a sales associate and both agreed the size 6 looked good.
The dress is from the same line as this one-
but with gray instead of color (we were asked to wear the bridal party colors of gray or light pink for family pictures and light pink is not a good color for me, lol).
Now I know I'm NOT a size 6. Obviously this dress was sized a little large. I would assume atm I'm an 8 or 10 depending on brand. It was still kinda gratifying that when picking between one size up or one size down from what was probably the appropriate size for the dress that the smaller size was the better fit =)
Anyways- Happy Friday and have a wonderful weekend!
