What a weird old day I've had!
I'll start with the hair trial, from day one I always had a pic in my mind of a gorgeous updo with a mass of like loops at the back. I have a real issue with my ears so know the tops at least would have to be hidden but i was sure I could make it work. So I went today and my hairdresser said ok, we'll start by curling it. As he was curling it every person in the salon started drooling over my hair and saying they wish their hair could curl like that (mine is mega thick and bouncy). I said that i didn't think having my hair down was very wedding-y and i wanted something a bit more 'special'. Anyway, he carried on and did the updo... and I hated it. Like can't stand it. Here it is...
Yuck yuck yuck. Sorry for the picture size by the way, I don't know how to shrink them!
I had pre-arranged to go and try my dress on after the hair appointment to see if it fitted properly as the loops had been fixed. So I went along to the dress shop with a face like a fiddle because I hated my hair. My dress was there and all fixed and cleaned and I put it on and it did up and I felt fabulous again! But still the hair was niggling at me, and I kept thinking about the curls. So I asked my mum to pull it out. I wanted to try veils too and they weren't working with the horrid updo. So, lots of tugging and 5 mins later (and bear with me here, it had been back-combed and all so remember that this is an uber scruffy version of what it will look like....)
I looooove it soooo much!! I never thought i would have it down, but i am so happy! And i have an actual veil! ?
And now for the weight loss before and after..... (sorry if before makes you queasy! ?)
And today.... (i know i still have back fat but hey, nobodys perfect ?)
And yes, that is the actual same dress!!!!! ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
AND!!!!! Its 6 weeks today (technically) until i can walk down the aisle it it!! Yaaay!
