dressing outfit and a surprise

got na my dressing outfit!!!

in case you're wondering what a dressing outfit is, it's what the bride wears when she's being made-up and poses with the wedding stuff (gown, bouquet, rings, arrhae, etc.). the things that you learn from w@wies...

normally, brides wear the hotel bathrobe as their dressing outfit. eversince i started the wedding preps, i've told myself that i wouldn't wear the hotel bathrobe since i don't want to look like i just stepped out of the shower in our pictures. come on, do you let other people see you in your bathrobe when you just stepped out of the shower at home?

i have to laugh upon reading a co-w@wie's blogsite regarding her thoughts on wearing a bathrobe as her dressing outfit. she was saying something like she'd look like someone who is ready to enter a boxing ring. :-D

i have to admit though, i was contemplating in wearing a bathrobe (but not the one provided in the hotel) since i would find myself looking for one in victoria's secret and crabtree and evelyn. i'd find really nice looking bathrobes but they're just so damn expensive!

anyway, found the perfect dressing outfit at the knot.

now, i'll be looking like i just came from the gym and not the shower...hehehehehehehehe :-)

oh, and i found a surprise waiting for me from rhelynn, my highschool friend in chicago, to whom my dressing outfit was sent (she had to send it to another friend who visited the us to save on shipping cost). it was a gift box from victoria's secret beautifully wrapped complete with a bride and groom bear gift toppers. i won't provide any details anymore on what's inside. ;-)
