#thehunt: Wedding shopping.

We have a family friend's wedding in about two weeks so I went out this weekend in search of a dress with my sister. These were the three front runners.  It was disheartening to realize that 4 is snug but I made the best of it 😭😩

Option 1: Grecian Godess. 
$40 USD, Ross
This is sexy yet flattering. There were just a few things that annoyed me. 
-the shoulder strap was a little loose (curse my shoulder to boob ratio 😭)
- The ruching in my butt made it look that much bigger. 
- there's no way I can get away with not getting this dress altered. 

Option 2: Red Carpet
$15 USD, Ross
This dress was super flattering, appropriate for my 27 years and evening enough to not upstage bridesmaids but look nice enough not to be in danger of being voted "most casual". Two enthusiastic thumbs up. 

Option 3: traditional homecoming
$25 USD, Ross
This dress wasn't too terrible. Just picked it up as a third option. Wasn't too impressed. It reminds me of the dime a dozen homecoming dresses. I cannot see one homecoming without visualizing someone with no imagination wearing this. Meh. It looks alright but I wouldn't be able to do this without  a faja. 

Verdict: I bought dress two. Not only will it fit me at any size but has class like no other.
