To romp or not to romp?


Yoyoyo ESB!
 

I have an unhealthy obsession with your blog. I just love it and all its greatness.
 


I'm getting married on Sept. 1st and I've already got this dress (the photo is shit, sorry).

BUT I just found this beaut (surprisingly @ UO).

Can I wear the dress to the ceremony and then party in the romper?? Or is a half time switch weird/tacky? What is the protocol here?

I would appreciate your straight-shootin advice if you've got the time.

Thank you!!

That is a jumpsuit, not a romper.

And it is FUGLY.

So. Problem solved!!

  2. WOW.
    i saw that jumpsuit and was all *shudders.*

    your dress is beautiful!
    half-time switches are a-ok, just not into something far, far less worthy of your wedding day.

  3. on first glance i didn't like that jumpsuit, but then it grew on me. so, i like it.

    but. your dress is soooo gorgeous!! too beautiful to change out of into that jumpsuit. if you like the jumpsuit, maybe you could buy it and wear it on your honeymoon? or whenevs?!

  7. If it was lined all the way through the legs it could work, but as is it looks cheap/ugs.

  8. Okay the dress is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen! But I understand that you maybe wouldn't want to party in it.. Just don't switch to the romper/jumpsuit. If you really love it, buy it and wear it every other day of your life. Just not on your wedding day.

  9. The jumpsuit is absolutely horrendous.

    The dress is fantastic.

    Do you want to spend your wedding day in something horrendous or fantastic?

    (I cried on the inside when I read the title)

  10. if you actually turned the jumpsuit into a romper (by hacking off the legs just below the liner hem) you might be able to pull it off with cute shoes, but i agree with the chorus here; i would want to party in that gorgeous dress.

  11. This is clearly a case of bridal brain. When you've reached your maximum capacity of decision-making, and you start losing your damn mind. It happened to me! I bought a pair of fugly gold wedding shoes (that I didn't end up wearing), simply because they were on sale. Anyways, you have your dress, and it's a stunner. Call it a day. Wear that gorgeous gown the entire time! Now, switch gears and find a sweet romper for the wedding night romp. Good luck. xo.

  16. Crisis Averted! Thanks for setting me straight everyone. And thanks for making me fall in love with my dress again! What the fuck was I smoking?? Anyways...

    My dress is by Canadian Designer Lundström. I found it by chance in a tiny boutique in my hometown and just snatched it off the rack.

    ...and now im pumped to wear it!

  18. Not surprising that it is from UO. Not surprising at all. The dress is LOVELY and very cool.

    1. Unfortunately, I can't find anything regarding the dress online! I've been trying to find something..anything!
      The design number is 1214340, but I'm not sure about the collection it is from. Good luck, I hope you find it!
