uploaded pics to new photobucket account
mostly finished dress but one thing that i need an opinion on


so yay! all i have left is to do laundry!

but sicne i got to work out i feel so much better. I need to work out on weds... that seems good. :)

anyways.... I ahve the pics here http://s104.photobucket.com/albums/m190/costumeslordofhaladin/?sc=1&multi=19&addtype=local&media=image  I hope it works.  the name of the album is costumeslordofhaladin that is for me to remember. ;p  I hope you all can get in this one... if not I'll post some pics of them here...  I hope I can post a pic here too....

okay this is the question.  do you like this neckline better?



the criss cross, or this one



its more of a square, neck. not coss?  I kinda like this one better.. but at the same time.......but anyways.. this is how its standing now. (the first pic)  its ironed so its more smooth and not so bulky.. but I'm not liking the dress on me.  well perhasp it has something to do with the fact taht it was 2 in the morning whe I tried it on.. ;p  but this dress needs me to wear a shaper! ;p

oh here is the idea I got from the stroy fairy, you can't read the writing but its the "battle garb". ;p



and here is the concept for the dress.



and in the folder is some pics of the hope and br gowns. :)  and see, its not lined, justthe underdress and the jumper.... its due to the fact that I plan to wear it out sometime and its never cool enough to have about 4 layers! ;p  anyways  just 'cause..





sorry they are scewed but I got them up! :D

hmmm can't get any of my br dress... its just not lettingme. :(  but they are all here
