so i keep falling in love with dresses from last year or older...and i cant find anyone thats selling them. and i cant find ones in newer collections that have the elements i like the most in the old dresses. i have an appt at a dress shop next weekend (maggie sottero trunk show) but i dont think ill be getting anything...im prob gonna have to order a replica from china. every1 is like dont do that! thats dangerous, why dont you buy from a reputable person? umm becaus NO1 IS SELLING IT! I could probably convince my grandmother (who's paying for my dress) to raise her budget for a dress I love if i could FIND the dress i love...my wedding is in feb...im cutting it close buying a dress as it is and my dream dress is nowhere to be found boo!!!

ok im done, thats been building up for a few days.

:/ well damn. I hope the appointment works out for you! What are you looking for?

Have you tried any of the pre-owned dress sites?

what dress(es) are you looking for?

Do a google search for local seamstresses.  A good one can replicate any dress that you find, (much like the Chinese wholesalers, only here you can go to their shop, etc)

Good luck, it will all come together!
