Big Week Coming Up!

I am super excited because this week I have a job interview on Wednesday and my mom will be flying in on Friday. Friday we are going to A'Lamour in Barrington IL and Vanessa's Modern Bride in Arlington Heights IL. I have an appointment at Macy's on State Street for Sunday but may cancel since I am really not looking to spend 2,000 bones on a dress.

I am hoping to find the dress, not that I am running out of time by any means but I would just love to have that decision made. Dress shopping hasn't been my favorite so far, it is just such a bummer the dresses are so teeny and there is still too much poof and too much bead/sparkles/lace for my taste. So if anyone has any good Chicago (or surrounding area) experiences to share please let me know since it will be on to round 3 if this weekend doesn't produce a winner.

SO FAR this is the dress I like (BTW this is not me in the dress, I found the pictures on the knot, she is trying to sell her dress, never worn, but in size 4, so if any of you teeny brides need a dress you can buy this one here)


I really like the v-neck style but haven't seen a whole lot out there, it is all strapless, strapless, strapless which I like too but feel the v-neck is more flattering and maybe more unique.
