A New Day - A new dress?

Hi Everyone,

So according to my last post I was last here three months ago - woosh! Time does fly doesn't it? I sure hope so cause I just moved away from home to finish my bachelor's degree and that means that me and FI are now... long distance :( .How sucky is that?

FI was sweet enough to take a month off from work to come with me and make sure my move went smoothly...gotta love that man :) He left 5 days ago but I swear it feels like a month.I really support those brides out there who have to be away from their fiance's at this time, cause it's really not easy! Even though its hard on both of us he is incredibly encouraging and keeps reminding me that its only for a time. (one year and two months to be exact) Thankfully we have phone services that at least allow unlimitated international texing yea!

On the bright side I do love my school, and my new home and I think things will go well eduacation wise. But there is still so much to do! I still have to get my driver's license though so I'm studying for that as we speak (why do you guys drive on the right? lol!) While FI and my family were here we did manage to finally get around to some dress hunting! Now u may ask why am I dress hunting when I already have a dress? Well we were getting a little stressed out on a trip and I decided we should have some fun. What I didn't expect to happen was that I would find a dress I really love! lol I'm in trouble now aren't I?

The first one was on the $99 and I haven't tried it on yet cause I ordered it a couple sizes small (don't ask). The other one is up in the $700. Now you may say, "if thats the dress you fell in love with why don't u get it since the first one was so cheap" Thing is when u're a college student $700 feels more like $7,000. lol. But my mom loves it so much she's trying to talk me into getting it and selling the first one i bought LOL. The wedding's not till next year I guess we'd have time to save for it, I dunno...what do u think? This is the first dress I bought:

This is the new one I tried on:

Decisions decisions! lol

I love the first dress you showed us,it is really beautiful,congratulations and be happy forever,

The first one is my favorite but you should buy what makes you happy most.

I also like the first dress.

Have to agree with the other ladies. Loving the first one! You did good choosing that one!

i love the part "why do you guys drive on the right?!" i feel the same way about you guys when i see european movies!!! driving on the left looks SOOOO hard! i think i would hit everything if i had to drive on the left side of the road, and in the right side of the car. idk how you do it!!

anyway... that second dress looks absolutly BEAUTIFUL on you! alot of bridal salons can open you up a credit, so you can pay the dress off over time! you should look into that!

hope to see you around the boards more now that you'll have a lil extra time with your FI being long distance :)

Which one do you love?
