Here's a picture of me in the dress. On the left is strapless with no slip, and the right is w/the sleeves and a ballgown slip underneath (I'll be wearing my hair down)

    Gorgeous dress. Get a lacey bolero, then you will have the best of both worlds.

    LOVE the sleeves as everyone else has said, but I think if you do them you should have your hair up. Having your hair down with them just doesn't look quite right!

    I like it with and without sleeves! You could do both! Do a bodysuit or convertible top for the ceremony the strapless for the reception.

    I love it both ways! but I do think that no sleeves for a warmer weather wedding is better, since your wedding is in January the sleeves may be a better choice.

    I still love the sleeves. I think you look great in both, but there is something about the sleeves that makes it so elegant and wonderful.

    The sleeves make the dress, especially if you're having a Winter Wedding.

    I went to my alterations appt. and they said they would make them strapless & detachable so I could choose to wear them or not... but that it may not look the same... so I chickened out and called back the next day to cancel it and have them keep the sleeves! Maybe it's a sign that deep down, I really want the sleeves!
