Such a hauntingly beautiful self-portrait. Thank you for creating it, even though it rose from your pain and despair.

I love this photo. It expresses so much, even without reading the story behind the process. This was def one of the pictures that kept me on your blog from the first time i came across the name "A compass rose" ;)

Ohhhh, your photo is gorgeous! Can you bring the dress to a seamstress? Zippers aren’t too costly to fix (usually)!. Paleo will take care of the rest. I am willing to bet that your husband thinks you are more beautiful now than the day you wed, dress or not. Don’t despair…

The internet won’t let me see your picture right now, which is frustrating me! That has to be scary–having the zipper broken and not quite fitting. Angel and I have a tradition so far of getting back into our wedding clothes every year. I think it’s a good thing for the sake of that tradition that my wedding dress was not a fitted style! That would make things a lot harder!

What a shame, but is is salvageable! Try and find a local seamstress (try the post office/village store notice board!) and they can usually do a fix quite quickly (my local seamstress fixed a skirt zip in about an hour! For a tenner!).

That picture is gorgeous Bonnie! I hope the dress gets fixed in time, it really is beautiful but you’ll be beautiful with or without it.
