Insecure about arms in wedding dress

Miranda, on April 9, 2017 at 9:38 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 8

I just had my final fitting two nights ago. I feel great in my dress but I'm insecure about my arms. I really am insecure about them in regular life anyway. But I feel like my wedding dress is really flattering except then there are my fat arms hanging out. Anyone else feel this way? Any suggestions? My dress is strapless. I also have redness on my arms (always have, my mom does too). Anyone else insecure about there arms? And what (if anything) did you do to cover them or tone them?

    I do, well I am very worried about my back fat too. But I got a longer veil so it kinda covers it .

    Pinterest arm workouts there are different ones to do based on equipment available to you. You would be surprised the toning definition you can get in one month if you do it consistently

    Here is a picture of me in my dress and veil at my fitting

    ETA: the bottom is shaped a little weird because they have it all pinned in the back to add a bustle

    Thanks! I know I am getting nervous because it's getting so close. I am going to start some exercises today.

    Girl you look BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! You don't have fat arms at all. You rock that dress... I have some redness on my arms too and I try to use hydrating body washes and lotions.

    @kristine C thank you so much! I know no one else will probably notice or care that day. Im just insecure about my arms.

    I hate the redness! I've always had it. Have you used anything in particular that helped it? My doctor told me to exfoliate frequently.

    I'll probably tell my photographer I'm worried about it so she can make sure to pose me in arm flattering poses when we do formal pics lol.

    St. Ives brand lotion. I've also been using Dove body wash. Spending some time in the sun usually helps even out the color, usually a nice little tan blends well.
