I had dreams about dress shopping 3 days in a row last week. I went to 2 boutiques (2 of the only boutiques open during this holiday weekend!), and brought along my mom, 3 aunts, and 2 cousins.
So I'll cut right to the chase and present you with a ton of photos of rejected dresses...
Meh...
Everyone loved this dress, but I insisted it made me look wide in all the wrong places. (The sales lady gave my cousin a tiara, which started a downward spiral into I-can't-wait-to-be-a-flower-girl-dom. It was adorable.)

This was our favorite from the first shop. I was seriously considering it when we left for our second appointment...

This is just bad (you can tell by my face)...
The shape of this one looked really good on me, but it was just a little too average-looking...
This was a finalist (and my older cousin's absolute favorite). It was extremely elegant, and would have flattered anyone, but it was a little too plain...
And lastly, a close contender to the dress...
So did I find the dress? Yes! But more to come on that later...

I enjoyed the day so much.

Now that I see the dress that I really liked in pictures, I agree with you. It's a bit to plain. ~Alaina
I meant too, not to (Alaina again)
I tried on the same Paloma gown and had the same thoughts. Beautiful material, color (champagne), super light, but it didn't wow me. The consensus was that it'd be better for a more mature bride.
