So I didn’t purchase the Randy Ortiz dress. Just bought something a little bit simpler, and much less expensive for tomorrow’s wedding. I still want Randy’s dress though. I’d definitely go back to GB5 when an event calls for me to totally glam up.

I have veered away from Greenbelt 5 for the past few days in an effort to prevent myself from purchasing an outfit for this Sunday’s wedding. I thought that I’d just wear that Debbie Co top I purchased a month back, and pair it with black skinny pants. Problem is, I still have to purchase the pants since I don’t have the black skinny ones. So I looked. And looked. Fit. Then fit some more. By yesterday, I was still unsuccessful. This was when I decided to surrender to the calling of that all-Filipino strip of boutiques at GB5. I knew without a doubt that I would see something of my liking there. I knew it will be from Myth. And I knew it would be from Randy Ortiz. And right I am.

It was a red taffeta dress with a ruched reckline (very similar to the Randy Ortiz dress featured on page 132 of the December 2007 issue of Preview). The SA thought it looked “cute” on me. I thought so too. So to the SA I said, “I’ll sleep over it. If I still want it tomorrow, I’ll be back”. So to make this short story shorter, I didn’t buy it. But I still desire it. Anyhoo, if I do decide to get it, I will let you know.

I know you’ll strangle me already since I didn’t give you any visual clues as to what the dress looked like, so I am leaving you now with the photos that didn’t make it while I was writing this post:
