Wedding!

My cousin is getting married this weekend and the dress I bought for the occasion is perfect…except for the sleeve. It is a one-shoulder dress, but the one shoulder is wide and unflattering. I took apart the entire arm-hole and made it larger for my super buff arms ;]

SO. WIDE. UGH. You can actually see where my shoulder attaches to my body!

As for the back of the dress…

 

Woop woop! Now the dress has space for my arm to actually move! Can’t wait for the wedding :)

EDIT: Pic with one of my cousins at the wedding reception.


You can’t see the rest of the dress, but trust me, it was gorgeous :]
