Day of disappointments

It was a day of disappointments but a ray of sunshine did come through at the end.
Now to add onto all of this I am a bit sick the moment and I am extremely busy with work (Christmas, late trade and sales - eww!) my body is exhausted and wanting Christmas to be here. But you see if Christmas arrives too soon then I won't be ready in time! Life is such a catch 22!
So back to my day...I had a few appointments to get through today, one being my dress for the engagement. I recently found a vintage shop that reproduces vintage gowns and I picked out an amazing white one hoping for it to be remade. So I trekked into the store, after speaking on the phone prior with the sales assistant saying that this would be possible to do. When I arrived the seamstress started saying in a very round-about away that she can't remember the dress and that she wouldn't be able to do it. I became very disappointed. I only have 4 weeks until the party and now I had to start from scratch! I think the most annoying part was that at first I was told that this could happen and that was the reason why I went in.
So I decided to leave and dragged my feet behind me in search for a new dress! Walking around Brick Lane in the rain I went into a few of the vintage stores, but nothing was nice....until I came across House of Vintage.
Shopping for me has to be a whole package. A beautiful store, lovely garments and amazing staff. I love when someone who works there offers thier help and opinions and gives you ideas. I was very impressed by this store, there were so many dresses that I LOVED! But finally I got it down to two.
Two gorgeous dresses in vivid colours, but that two had to become one.
And this one, I love!
