So. Just got back from the dress-fitting thing. Getting up to the St. Laurent Centre via OC Transpo on a Sunday was quite the adventure on its own, but it's not really worth going into.

The bridesmaids dresses are really pretty - red, straight cut top with spagetti straps, flows right down to the floor, and has a slit along the wearer's left side that reveals a lovely white panel. I really liked them. Plus we have red creshed velvet little... coats? Shawls? I dunno, but they're very short and they just cover our shoulders and then we get to wear white satin gloves.

So I go to try my dress on (just the dress) and it's like 8 sizes too big for me and way too long, like dragging on the floor. But the lady pinned it up and it looked really good. Like, even as I was watching in the mirror as she finished up with my hem, I couldn't help but think that this dress made me look very good. I mean, I looked like I actually had a decent figure in it. It was great. :)

Oh, and Lili looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding dress. I'm not huge on the whole wedding thing, but I know a well-made and great-fitting dress when I see one. Honestly? It makes her look at least 50lbs lighter. (Which is good, as she hasn't lost all the baby weight, yet.)


Yeah. That's all for now. I have a headache and am cold, so am going to go huddle somewhere for a while.
