My wedding dress


Today, one of my students and I talked aobut weddings in the Philippines.  She loved to sew so I decided to show her my wedding dress.  She suggested that I take a picture of it while wearing it.  I gladly obliged because I had an excuse to finally wear it again.  I haven't brought my wedding dress to the dry cleaners since I last wore it during my wedding day.  I love my wedding dress because it was simple and easy to wear.  I think I am a very practical woman. I do not like pouffy, heavy dresses so when I told my cousin to design my dress, I wanted one similar to Princess Kate's but in short sleeves since it is hot here in the Philippines.

I noticed after taking pictures, my gown has turned a little bit yellow.  Now, I am worried and determined to make it white again.  I am also thinking of cutting the skirt soon to make it a weekend dress that I can wear to parties and events. I will have to ask my cousin how it should be designed.

By the way, sorry for the poor quality of pictures, lately, I have been using my camera phone instead of my Nikon dSLR.
