Back in the beginning of my blogging days, when I was newly engaged, I was searching for the perfect engagement party dress. I was getting opinions from readers about which dress, and as you can see times haven’t changed seeing as I did that up until the day of my wedding.

I picked this as my fave dress for the Engagement Party.  (read a little more about that here, here, and here)

This favorite dress of mine is back in action at Nordstrom! It was out of commission for about a year, but as I was pursuing the racks, I came across it again. I hope that you bridal shower peeps take note because this is the perfect little dress. I wish I had another occasion to wear this.  :(

Enjoy!

I ordered all of this last night (along with a few other “necessary” but not engagement party related items) from Nordstrom last night.  Free shipping and I can return anything in the store (which is walking distance from my house). I haven’t tried on the dress yet, but I am really hoping it looks fantastic! If not, but to square one with the dress shopping!

In terms of shoes, I can’t decide. I LOVE the zebra print but there are 2 downsides: 1. I want to incorporate Zebra into my wedding and wedding shoes would be a great way. It’s not decided but it is a possibility so I don’t want to possibly wear them twice. 2. They are $200! eeks. As far as the black shoes, well, the pro is that I own them (by far my favorite pair of shoes I have ever purchased. I still get compliments on those) but the down side is that everyone knows I own them!

So what’s a girl to do?? I am going to keep looking for shoes, but what are the thoughts on the outfit???
