"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Buffistas are the bestest, in case I haven't mentioned it lately.

sj, does it have to be silk?

I would really prefer it, but I would be happy with an natural feeling soft fabric that isn’t polyester or the like.

sj, rest up and hydrate to clear out the overdidits...then relax and try again.

Margaritas don’t count as hydrating do they? TCG took me out for Mexican food, even though I know he really really didn’t want to go out.

sj, did you try J.Crew?

Yes, the 2 I really liked do not come in a large enough size.

sj, how about this for under whatever you find?

I already bought a pretty white crinoline on ebay, that was the easy part.

sj, when you feel up to it, post a link to your ideal dress and size, and I am sure the hivemind can point you in the right direction!

I don’t have a link because I can’t find the ideal dress; as usual it only exists in my head. I wear a 14 in most clothing but I am finding dresses are running smaller.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Most dresses created for the wedding industry run about 2 "sizes" smaller. Assholes.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Buffistas are better than the birds in Cinderella for trimming finding a pretty pretty dress for a pretty pretty sj!

Jilli: What's the recommended method for getting odors like smoke out of something you don't want to wash, like a corset? Cheap vodka in a spray bottle? Do you dilute it with water?

Why the hell would they do that?

To make sure you feel as awful as possible after a day of dress shopping? It's the only think I can think of.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm pretty sure they do it to make you feel like shit so you'll spend more money in a frantic attempt to make it all ok.

And then there's what I like to call the Fat Chick Surcharge. Ordering over a size 18? Oh that'll be a $30-$150 surcharge for all of the extra fabric we'll need to fit your giant ass/hips/belly/thighs/head that you will then pay $50-$175 having altered to fit you properly, thereby cutting away all the fabric you just paid for.

I repeat: Assholes.

I used to dream of opening a bridal store where none of the dresses had sizes in them. Only my employees knew what size anyone needs/wants/buys.

That didn't work on me but combined with some very rude sales people, it did make me sort of homicidal.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Why the hell would they do that?

I kinda wonder if they just didn't go for the sizing fluidity that most clothes have. Not that it makes shopping fun.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

sj, bidding ends in 3 minutes, and it's very cute:

Straps, sleeves, what's your preference?
