Yep.
Is this young woman known to be a bit of a flake?
She isn’t not a flake…usually very reliable. DD says she has had some family stuff going on…but not returning ANY emails to the MOH? For two months or more? And they were also college friends.
I’ll let you all know.
It’s the last RSVP.
I hope she’s OK and hasn’t disappeared from the scene for bad reasons.
I know!
Soooo. What am I doing today? Sitting around waiting for the UPS delivery of the wedding dress…which I have to be here to sign for. Got notice yesterday that it would be here between 12:30 and 4:30. Got an update today which said…it will be delayed but they can’t give me a delivery time or day now. So…I’m sitting here. Because you know…it could get here any time…or not.
But in the meantime fedex dropped off a gift from a cousin who isn’t attending the wedding…very sweet.
While you wait, just watch the news, @thumper1. It will calm you down. :))
Hope the dress arrived, @thumper1 !
Got a new update…it’s coming tomorrow…instead of today. Great. So I went out and got my new glasses.
I think this is the dress. After much ordering and returning and deliberating over long versus short. What do you fashion forward people think?
@TatinG I LOVE it!! I think it is very romantic.
Gorgeous dress!
Thanks. I am more used to wearing tennis or hiking clothes. Haven’t worn a dress in years. I had an education in undergarments for dresses yesterday at Nordstrom. Was anyone else not aware that Spanx shapewear has a slit in the crotch? So it doesn’t have to be removed to pee! I wasn’t aware such things existed.
Or a snap, on some brands. Wonderful.
Very nice dress choice.
Love the dress!
Love that Komarov dress; it’s such a pretty color. I think you’ll be very happy with it.
As a plus, it turns out these dresses are great for travel and hard to destroy. The one I bought last year spent several weeks post-wedding rolled up in a damaged suitcase then left in storage bin for months. Not expecting it to be wearable again, I put it in a mesh lingerie bag and washed it in cold water on the delicate cycle just to see how it would survive. I wrapped hand towels over a pair of large plastic hangers and hung the dress near a dehumidifier. In the morning it was dry and looked as good as new.
Thanks, that’s good to know.
I was surprised to read the care tag on my dress…turn inside out and wash in the machine on gentle cycle. Dry in dryer on low!
Who knew!?
@TatinG, I love the dress.
I tried on some similar Komarov dresses before my daughter’s wedding, and I thought they were great. But on me, there was a problem. The fabrics were so slippery that the jackets would slip over to the side, a look that is not flattering if you are, shall we say, well-endowed (the endowment was also what caused the problem). In everyday life, I never wear a slippery blouse under a jacket or cardigan for just this reason, but there’s no way to change the underlayer of a Komarov jacket dress.
But if the jacket stays in place on you, or if the dress/jacket combination still looks good even if the jacket slips out of place, go for it. Komarov dresses are lovely.
I love the dress and the color
Years ago, when we wore sweater sets we had a chain that attached to each side of the sweater. I wonder if they still sell them
