let's see.

Today we picked up our dresses for Angie's daughter's wedding in Manila...a formal gown.

I must say the design fits me, as does the color, and it FITS, i.e. taylored.

First time for me.
I did have a bridesmaid gown for my college roommate's wedding, but it was premade and only altered...and my wedding dress? well, Fred kept putting the wedding off, so I didn't buy one until the last minute, and got an "on sale" brocade top with a polyester chiffon skirt, which didn't flatter me but was at least fancy.

This is camel "cafe au lait" in chiffon over satin, fits like a glove (i.e. if I slouch, it pulls and wrinkles)...
Alas, I don't own a strapless bra...will probably use duct tape (just kidding)..
And it makes me look and feel beautiful.

Not bad for an ex tom boy who feels better in jeans and teeshirt...
