i wasnt supposed to go into town today, but as fate would have it i ended up finding a formal dress in studi baker in wollongong..lol..first we went to a bridal shop in port kembla, but as you would have guessed all the dresses were either wedding dresses or they looked too much like a bridesmaid dress and considering that factor i didnt think it was fitting for me to buy anything as i was neither going to be a bride or a bridesmaid..but the lady who worked in that shop told us about a shop in wollongong so instead of going to shellharbour next we went to wollongong and the place that she said did not tickle my fancy what so ever. we were just about to leave when i saw the shop studi baker and wanted to have a quick squiz before we left. all of a sudden the clouds parted and teh sun shined with the angels singing. there it was; the very first dress i liked, and now they actually had it in my size so i tried it on and loved it!

im so happy now that i have found a dress! i was even twirlling around in the shop..lol..the dress even passed the twirl test, which is even a greater bonus..lol..

next thursday on the 12th i think it is, i have to go in and get the straps altered as they are too long. they must make them to fit a tall model or someone coz every dress i tried on, the straps were too long..unless i just have small shoulders or something..lol..but oh well..it wont cost me anything to get the dress altered coz it is a "minor adjustment" so bonus!
