The Search For THE ONE continues….

posted by on 2012.05.17, under Wedding

I think it just hit me now that my wedding is in 2.5 months and that I DONT have a dress yet! It’s a bit unsettling that I have pretty much EVERYTHING done except for finding THE dress. Here a couple of shots that the amazing Jana Williams shot of me at my GENLUX  magazine bridal cover shoot. (HERE’S a peak at the cover shot)  I’ve tried on possibly every type of dress that you can imagine…but why oh why is it so hard for me to pick out THE ONE?

So maybe YOU can be my stylist this time around. What style should my Wedding Dress be?

1.Soft & Romantic (1st  & last look)

dress by Monique Lhuillier//Sash- Temperley London//Shoes- Christian Louboutin

2.Classic & Vintage ( 2nd & 3rd look)

dress by Monique Lhuillier //Sash- Temperley London

3. Glam & a bit of Drama (4th look)

dress by Tadashi Shoji/ headpiece by Twigs & Honey//Shoes- Christian Louboutin

Let me know your thoughts!!!

2.Classic & Vintage ( 2nd & 3rd look)

zyra ( May 17, 2012 at 2:11 PM )

Classic & Vintage :D !

Anna ( May 17, 2012 at 2:10 PM )

Classic & Vintage. I love the lace detailing!

Jessica Zhang ( May 17, 2012 at 2:10 PM )

Vintage. You’re very thin and your chest/collarbone and shoulder area does not look good bare (like in the first dress.)

Sara ( May 17, 2012 at 2:09 PM )

first and last! beautiful dress!

Megan ( May 17, 2012 at 2:08 PM )

Soft and romantic deffos :)

Nadia ( May 17, 2012 at 2:03 PM )

I’d go for classic and vintage! The laces add that extra elegant glow! :)

Victoria ( May 17, 2012 at 2:03 PM )

Classic & Vintage ( 2nd & 3rd look) rock them all!!!!
Good luck chriselle and congratulations from Israel!

meital ( May 17, 2012 at 2:03 PM )

Classic & Vintage is my choice. Everything else is nice but the Classic Vintage is simple and classy.

Uyuu ( May 17, 2012 at 1:59 PM )

#2 & #3 Classic and Vintage. It just looks so gorgeous on you, reminiscent of Kate Middleton’s dress. The lace is so chic and gorgeous.

Stephanie ( May 17, 2012 at 1:57 PM )

The first one suits you the best!

Sandi Jones ( May 17, 2012 at 1:54 PM )

The Classic & Vintage. Tout simplement MAGNIfIQUE =)

LadyN ( May 17, 2012 at 1:54 PM )

2nd and 3rd :) <3 all the best~!

Criss ( May 17, 2012 at 1:53 PM )

Classic and Vintage. Simply effortless, elegant and timeless.

Justina ( May 17, 2012 at 1:51 PM )

the soft and romantic one is beautiful, but i gotta say you look absolutely stunning in the classic and vintage one. of course, the glam one looks cool too, but would you really wanna look super fashionable on your wedding day? haha i’d stick with stunning ♥

Lilly ( May 17, 2012 at 1:50 PM )

Classic & Vintage is my favourite of the bunch. It channels Douches of Cambridge Kathrine and I loved her dress so much. I think it flatters your shape the most but I know that you will look gorgeous in whatever dress you choose. xo

Sydnee ( May 17, 2012 at 1:50 PM )

soft and romantic!

Jessica Wu ( May 17, 2012 at 1:49 PM )

I’d deffinitely go for the second dress, the one with lace like top part. Suits you very well.

Jane Candy ( May 17, 2012 at 1:48 PM )

Soft and romantic ! <3

Clémence ( May 17, 2012 at 1:48 PM )

All 3 look great on you, but I like Soft and Romantic the most! =D

Wendy ( May 17, 2012 at 1:48 PM )

CLASSIC VINTAGE! Though they all look great, its by far the most flattering on you

Audrey ( May 17, 2012 at 1:47 PM )

It’s hard to say. You look virginal in the ‘soft & romantic’, especially in that last photo but I think you would be best suited for the lace in the ‘classic & vintage’.

♥ Whatever you finally choose we’ll still love you in it. ♥

Cait ( May 17, 2012 at 1:47 PM )

Classic and Vintage look is the best. Although a bit of drama is nice, but I think for a wedding you should be all white. As for the first dress, perhaps the top is not very well fit. It’s too wide around the chest, and doesn’t give you enough support.
<3

So Lala ( May 17, 2012 at 1:47 PM )

Defiantly the vintage one, its sooooo stunning!! <3 I would love that dress for my wedding~! xx

Elora ( May 17, 2012 at 1:46 PM )

You’re stunning in all of the dresses but Classic and Vintage stood out the most!

Kristy ( May 17, 2012 at 1:45 PM )

Please, do not wear the third one. I don’t like it very much and it’s not a classic wedding dress. You should wear the first dress because it is totally gorgeous and it fits perfectly to you! :-)

Mia Van ( May 17, 2012 at 1:45 PM )

The Second one! I like the lace on you!

Julie ( May 17, 2012 at 1:42 PM )

Glam & a bit of Drama

Ven ( May 17, 2012 at 1:42 PM )

Classic. Vintage. Amazingly beautiful. You look amazing in the romantic style as well, but the vintage look suits you best. Such lovely dresses! ^-^

Natalya K ( May 17, 2012 at 1:42 PM )

hi chriselle! i would pick soft and romantic… but that would be because I have that kind of personality and it’s the theme for my wedding too ;) . your theme is french villa inspired (am i right? hehe i read it from your other entry)…… i think it’s more vintage inspired…. so i guess vintage dresses would be better ….. but i say pick the one you like the most and you think fits you best and looks best on you. actually all of them look good on you… it’ll really be up to you! :) good luck!!!

Marianne Cayco ( May 17, 2012 at 1:41 PM )

The one with the lace is so awesome!!!

Sabine ( May 17, 2012 at 1:41 PM )

I think Soft & Romantic look suits you the best.
Maybe I have old taste but I like more voluminous dress, with lace and lots of soft but refined details.
I wonder what the groom will be wearing. I’ve always thought the two outfits should match, like a pair. Sometimes they don’t accord and it’s simply a style fail^^;
Maybe you can start by choosing your shoes or accessories you want to wear for the wedding. Then the image of the perfect dress going with those will come to your mind. I often have ideas for outfit this way.
I imagine vintage veil would look absolutely great on you. Vintage dress then?
Good luck!!

PS: btw gorgeous pics^^

lazuli ( May 17, 2012 at 1:41 PM )

Classic and vintage!! That one is gorgeous!!

Kitt ( May 17, 2012 at 1:40 PM )

Classic & Vintage

Jen ( May 17, 2012 at 1:38 PM )

I really don’t like either of the other ones but #1, the lace is too granny like, and the other one is just not wedding like :s
I adore the first one though, it’s absolutely gorgeous and perfect!

Jennifer ( May 17, 2012 at 1:38 PM )

Second one!

Kaman ( May 17, 2012 at 1:38 PM )

I totaly fell in love with the Classic & Vintage dress, so timeless and beautiful!

Rebecca ( May 17, 2012 at 1:37 PM )

*Soft and romantic* dress is absolutely gorgeous on you.

Kim ( May 17, 2012 at 1:36 PM )

2.Classic & Vintage <3

Michael ( May 17, 2012 at 1:36 PM )

Soft and Romantic for sure!
The Classic and Vintage is slightly too white and an off-white looks more expensive and pretty while white-white can look cheap. Classic and Vintage also doesn’t look too comfortable even though it’s gorgeous. The Soft and Romantic look is very “you” and beautiful! Your wedding day is supposed to be romantic and that dress just does it for you!

Jenny ( May 17, 2012 at 1:36 PM )

The first photo is goddess-like. If I had to choose your dress it would definitely be the one in the first and last photo. Gorgeous.

Diana ( May 17, 2012 at 1:35 PM )

First one ;)

n ( May 17, 2012 at 1:35 PM )

VINTAGE!!!!!! <3333333

Marija Proshina ( May 17, 2012 at 1:34 PM )

vote for vintage & classic!!! totally timeless look!!

Aileen ( May 17, 2012 at 1:34 PM )

FIRST ONE….it looks nice on you and it will probably be more comfortable since it will be hot in the later months :)

Tharshi Siva ( May 17, 2012 at 1:33 PM )

Soft and romantic! I would like to see a better shot of glamour tho.

Diana Dang ( May 17, 2012 at 1:33 PM )

Classic and Vintage! :3

Sheri ( May 17, 2012 at 1:32 PM )

I pick Classic and vintage, it looks gorgeous on you.

Stevanie ( May 17, 2012 at 1:32 PM )

First and last for SURE!!

Lindsay ( May 17, 2012 at 12:45 PM )

Classic & Vintage

Lois ( May 17, 2012 at 12:35 PM )

The lace dress is beautiful, but I’d say on you the first picture (soft and romantic) was the most stunning!! Whatever you choose you’ll look amazing in though :)

Julia ( May 17, 2012 at 12:32 PM )

Soft & Romantic <3
You look just stunning on that dress!

Karina Sofía ( May 17, 2012 at 12:27 PM )

You make a such a wonderful bride :)

Margaret ( May 17, 2012 at 11:40 AM )

The lace dress looks really good on you. You should have that as your wedding dress

Riani ( May 17, 2012 at 11:17 AM )

2nd and 3rd ones

Thea ( May 17, 2012 at 11:08 AM )

Soft and Romantic…I think it fits you very well, but that’s just my opinion…I’m sure you’ll find a dress that you think is perfect for you….you still have plenty of time….good luck ^__^

IoanaP ( May 17, 2012 at 10:56 AM )

lace dress lace dress lace dress!!!

Grace ( May 17, 2012 at 10:42 AM )

DEFINITELY 2nd and 3rd look!!!!!
They are amazing and you look extraordinary.
I really that dress, because it so delicate and romantic, it reminds of you ;)
Pick that one :)

Kate ( May 17, 2012 at 10:38 AM )

the lace is beautiful! i think that’s the one :)

Monica ( May 17, 2012 at 10:15 AM )

Soft and vintage! It looks magical on you!

Claudia Correia ( May 17, 2012 at 9:54 AM )

The first and second for sure!!You look fab in those two dresses.Xo

Yazmin ( May 17, 2012 at 9:49 AM )

You look absolutely amazing in the classic & vintage dress! Even though I do like the soft and romantic quite much too. You’re so beautiful!

Olivia ( May 17, 2012 at 8:58 AM )

Definitely classic & vintage! The lace is absolutely breathtaking on you!

Elle ( May 17, 2012 at 8:47 AM )

the dress in the third picture is stunning!!

Elisa ( May 17, 2012 at 8:35 AM )

You look stunning in either dresses. I really like the lace number on you. It is a very timeless piece, but I also love the dress in the last photo. It is elegant and breathtaking. I can imagine you now in that dress with the wind blowing and the skirt of the dress flowing as you walk.

THATS GRYT, Aves Gry

Aves Gry ( May 17, 2012 at 8:24 AM )

The last one! Glint and Glam

Juliana ( May 17, 2012 at 8:22 AM )

Chriselle, you look gorgeous in all the dresses but i think, from following your blog and videos, I would say Classic and vintage is the best way to describe your everyday personal style. You could think about following through that way :) Love u!

Yin ( May 17, 2012 at 8:20 AM )

2.Classic & Vintage! I love the back, it’s sexy and elegant, you are gorgeous in it.

Flavie ( May 17, 2012 at 8:16 AM )

Classic & Vintage! The lace dress looks so beautiful on you :) <3

Lottie ( May 17, 2012 at 7:33 AM )

Definitely soft & romantic :)

Gisella ( May 17, 2012 at 6:57 AM )

Beautiful. But get on that dress search!! My dress took 12 weeks to come in.
My best advice is to enjoy the process and don’t be a Bridezilla. The process is fun so don’t stress. Everything will turn out just the way it’s supposed to.

FashionableLena ( May 17, 2012 at 6:51 AM )

Omg I loved the soft and romantic and the classic and vintage! those are so perfect!!
Have a great time planning your wedding and congratulations! =D

Vera Pereira ( May 17, 2012 at 6:50 AM )

You look absolutely stunning with the soft and romantic look!!!

Mira ( May 17, 2012 at 6:40 AM )

soft and romantic.
because your neck and shoulder are beautiful!

elijabeseu ( May 17, 2012 at 6:30 AM )

Love you in your classic and vintage!
But I’d prefer the gorgeous dress in the soft coral colour with full bloom bottom
(the dress with lots of intricate details petals-alike).

Btw, Chriselle, do you mind to tell me where did you got your header type font from? What is it called? Kinda like thee type font you had very much. Glad if you could tell me.

Have a blessed day!

S ( May 17, 2012 at 6:30 AM )

I love the classic & vintage look. You look amazing in it.

Alice ( May 17, 2012 at 6:29 AM )

Chriselle, you would look amazing in pretty much anything but I’d have to say the stunning lace dress is eminently befitting for you!

Stephanie ( May 17, 2012 at 4:50 AM )

definitely number 1! i think it looks SO SO gorgeous on you!

Tanja ( May 17, 2012 at 4:46 AM )

I’m for CLASSIC AND VINTAGE – so gorgeous! You will be stunning bride. I’ve had lace wedding dress, too.. Good luck

Martina V. ( May 17, 2012 at 4:42 AM )

I think the classic and vintage dresses are beautiful, and the soft and romantic style too. I think you should stick to things like that with maybe a little bit of a twist to represent your interest in fashion and your unique personality :)

Abi ( May 17, 2012 at 4:40 AM )

I love the lace dress in the 2nd and 3rd photo! :) So gorgeous!

Julie ( May 17, 2012 at 4:40 AM )

the classic vintage photos are just stunning they are my Favs for sure. Though I’m certain you’d like amazing in anything.

Lisa ( May 17, 2012 at 4:39 AM )

You are so stunning in Classic and vintage. 2nd and 3rd photo. if I were as skinny as you are, i wanted that to be my wedding dress too.

stephanie laysa ( May 17, 2012 at 4:35 AM )
