Tabitha Wearing "Tabitha" by Maggie Sottero

I think it was like 4 months ago when I was looking through the new Maggie Sottero vendor catalogue and saw a dress...wait...I have to back up and give you more info first.



Ok, FIRST of all Maggie Sottero names all of their gowns which is charming and also makes life easier because you can say to your gown specialist, "I saw "Clarice" on line and am really interested in her!" And we know exactly who you're talking about.  It also gets funny because we talk about the dresses like they are ACTUALLY girls..."Have you tried Bernadette?"  or "She LOVES Tracey!"  and "I pulled  Madison, I think you'll like her." It's awesome :)

Anyway, four months ago I was looking through the new Maggie Sottero vendor catalogue and saw a dress named...TABITHA!! JUST LIKE ME!!!! I love it!!  So I (of course) FUUUHREEEEK'D out and was like "YOU GUYS YOU GUYS YOU GUYS!! THERE'S A DRESS WITH MY NAME!!!!"

Normal people have names like Ashley, Jennifer, Jessica, Kristen, Nicole, Christine, and Sarah.  These people are totally accustomed to sharing their names so they don't FREAK OUT about things with their name. Yeah. (All of the kids in my family have good friends named Tabitha.  We attract Tabithas. Shout out to Tabitha A.!!)

Back to me FREAKING OUT: The rest of the store was mildly impressed and said, "Oh, hhhmm...yes...it's a pretty dress." And carried on. Sigh.

Fast forward 4 months, to where I FUUUUHREEEK'D out again because THE DRESS IS HERE!! IT CAME IN!! TABITHA'S HERE!! TABITHA'S HERE!!!

This time more people got excited with me and I immediately tried on Tabitha!! (And by immediately I mean took my clothes off in the back room)

So allow me to introduce:

Tabitha by Maggie Sottero 

 "Tabitha" is ultimate femininity!  Lace, delicate beading, extreme mermaid silhouette, and a matching lace veil combine forces to create a superhero of gowns.
 Here is the matching cathedral length veil that goes with "Tabitha"!  The lace edge is called "eyelash" lace because of the fine pieces that you can see flaring from the lace. 
Check out this extreme mermaid!  It's fitted tightly through the thigh and the petticoat underneath this gown is ENORMOUS!!  You can't tell by looking at it, but the flared skirt is extremely full and "thick" with layers of "fluff" to make it stand out beautifully!
 How beautiful is this veil?!?  We are in LOVE with this look!!


 "Tabitha" has the signature Maggie Sottero corset back that is uber figure flattering.
 











  




















This is the optional flower that comes with "Tabitha"! It's such a great accessory especially to add to the gown on the way to the reception!



I hate writing about dresses when I wear them because it makes me feel weird so I am asking the girls what they think...here we go!!

Nichole: "I love the top.  It's soft, very feminine.  I love the eyelash lace, too. I actually really love where the sash is.  It breaks up the torso, espeically for someone like you, you look proportioned."

Jazmyn: "What do I like about "Tabitha"?  I think that in terms of fit the structure of the dress though is a mermaid but it a woman's curves nicely without making her look "hip-y".  I agree with Nichole, it makes you look really long and lean."

Shelley: "I like it.  It's unique, unusual.  It's fitted but it's empire waisted, which you don't see a lot.  It's a TRUE mermaid and there are a lot of dresses that aren't. "

Claire: "I think Tabitha is pretty amazing, she's friendly, has a great a...OH THE DRESS? My feelings towards the gown: I think it's sparkly, glittery, and looks like a pretty doily.  I love the eyelash lace.  I love that it's called eyelash lace.  I like the simple elegance."




You're welcome for the amazing over the top bridal pose.
































So come see, "Tabitha"! If you're interested in a mermaid, she's your girl!  When you put her on you instantly feel the quality in the structure of this Maggie Sottero gown.  You MUST check her out!!



Love, Tabitha. (me, not the dress)

PS: THANK YOU CLAIRE FOR BEING AN AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER!!  Seriously.  She's baller. She photographs weddings. Just saying. :)
