September 17, 2014 - Bride.

September 17, 2014 .

Today, I looked myself in the mirror and I saw an honest happiness. A true, sincere, honest happiness. It was a re-discovery night, a night between me and myself.

I said: "I feel extremely comfortable with this one. Because this one is who I am today. But this other one is who I want to be." I bough the latter.

It is gorgeous.

It embodies living in New York as I intended it to be. The type of dress you can only wear in a wedding in New York. It has finesse, tradition, modernity and the perfect balance of a silky-seduction in a bold statement.

It allows me to finally explore my body (and confidently celebrate it) as I'd never done before.

And yet, it is so... damn... chic.
It's the 50s decadent star laying in a couch smoking a cigar. It's a spin of Gloria Swanson's Sunset Boulevard, but played by Julia in New York in 2014 when she's 31 years and a slim body.

I do hope my choice for this dress sets the tone and spirit for my married life.

I now totally understand what fashion and self-reflection really mean.
