Also if you try on the dress the day that you receive it (and it doesn't work), they will work really hard to find another one for you and overnight it! LOVE the Trina Turk...really gives off the Bollywood vibe.<br /><br />P.S. I always have my dress arrive 2 days before the event, just in case it doesn't work :)<br /><br />Mary Kate<br />http://www.monumentminutes.comMary Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01260633607248153253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4011950575158474831.post-48168415175312871202014-02-27T09:11:51.670-06:002014-02-27T09:11:51.670-06:00I could have voted for three different options if ...I could have voted for three different options if you would have let me! haha This sounds so fun, Shanna!
