I recieved an intriging email from my friend Peg this past week regarding a dress she'd seen in the bridal boutique in Port Perry .She thought it may be suitable for me to wear to my son's wedding.
We made plans to se it in person on Saturday afternoon and then have dinner together in her home that evening.
Upon arival her husband was just finishing off tidying the kitchen , and had made the dinner for the evening ...intriging...something was a foot!
Peg came down she had just finished dressing and was about to dry her hair.
No rush , take your time ,she always looks great , very savy and nicely put together outfit.
My husband drove us to the shop and we first viewed the dress from the window, it was very sheek not alot of bling cocktail length, unusal pewter color.
In we went, were greated by a sweet younge woman and started to rifle thru the racks for dresses that caught our eyes.
Peg has an excellent eye for items that one may not think would look good , due to the way they look on the hanger, she is generally right on.Which amazes me , if I don't like it on the hanger I will not try it on at all, she does give the nudge I need to try them on.
The pewter dress was a no go as there were NO sizes bigger than a 6, that definitely left me out and half the general population of the planet Zolton!
Zolton is a planet were woman sizes 16 and up end up on after they have scoured the known universe for something to wear , a scarf,big girls panties, spanx the final frontier with crotch release .What ever!
We came aupon a stylish swirl of chifon with cross banding at the bust greens and blue swirls, however apparently my misalinged body , the boobies were not ginormous enough to fill the top if the dress , but the ass was too ginoumous to zip up the bottom of the dress and with the added feature of having my pants down around my ankles , ladies and gentleman cord pants they were.Stunned was not a good enough word for it.
The look as I told any one with in ear shot was a fashion risk but I alone was willing to take it and wear it out in the open for all to see, although I was not counting on a large group of women trooping through to the other viewing room, I meant Peg and the 2 sales woman.
What can I say Shit happens.We move on, I tried on the v neck dimonale straped navy
jersy , it actually looked very nice on me, although I guess the filling of the upper cup of the dress left a bit of a gap...note to all woman as we grow older boobies deflate .
This dress we all agreed was a possiable keeper, the second dress had a T shirt top styling with ruffleed edge bottm two tiered and a jacket ina a bronze leaf motif , horriable , suitable for Liz the Queen or Italian grandmothers every where............not up for that role just yet , the clothes part.
Many more followed in similar styles , hated them all, I'M such a bitch, note to self DONOT YELL OUT THAT IS AN UGLY DRESS like a 2 year old and refuse to try it on.
People are only trying to be helpful and after all I'm the duibe with her pants wrapped around her ankles still.
Another dress was a black aline with enough ruffles at the neck that it constrained your bust into a uniboob, truly amazing!
Off with that dress, and what's with my arms , swimming did not sculpt them just made them huge, going have to so dumbbells again, look in back of closet for them.
Went back to blue dress with the diamoles and took two photo's of it , loved it but because it was such an exact fit , I am frighteded if I gain any weight , it will be sausage dress not sexy dress so I'm on the fence about, and want to think it through.
My husband was brought in by Peg to have a look he liked it as well, although the whole cord rolled down pants by the ankle thing threw him.
We went home and promised to contact the store via Peg as to wether I wanted the blue or not ,
We had a drink while dinner was cooking and got to say hi to Mat who was going to hang with his sister and his niece, so sweet.
I shall continue this tommorow as there is a dinner to tell of and so much more ..Look whose on GOOgle !
