A smidge upset at Lilly...

I just received all my goodies from Under the Palm Tree and as usual, everything was well wrapped, folded and I receieved it timely. My issue is with Lilly. It seems everything is getting smaller! I take my measurements monthly (obsessive, yes, I know. But weight doesn't always indicate growth and I always need measurements for buying suits and pants) anyway, I have not grown in the shoulder area and yet the Colby dress I just got is so tight over my shoulders! I am a bit confused to say the least! I wear the same size in almost every style (except strapless!) and I just don't get it! Also, I am wearing the Wayles for the first time today, and it seems very short! Has anyone else noticed shorter hems this fall??? Or have any inside information to help me with my plight???
Anyway, sorry for the rant, I just feel Lilly used to be mindful of sizes and hem lengths; we want to look nice but also professional!

More wedding drama!

Just when I thought all the wedding drama was over, ha! Its just beginning. The future DH's sister (who is a bridesmaid in the wedding because she is 'supposed to be') is the same age as me but just graduated from her undergrad about a month ago; well, I haven't asked her to do much at all for the wedding...well, now that I think about it, I haven't asked her to do anything. Any who, we had my bridal shower about 3 weeks ago and everyone was there...except her. She showed up an hour and a half late (without a reason) and then left early without asking the other bridesmaids if they needed any help cleaning up or anything. I was really upset and so were the other 4 bridesmaids that she didn't do anything and nor did she offer. I stuck up for her saying no one asked her to help so she didn't know she should have at least offered. Then tonight, I went to the DH's parent's house to put together the favors and I asked her to help since she was there. Well, she laughed and said "no, I have better things to do"; i.e. she was going to wing night at the bar near her house which started at 9 and I asked her at 7. I was so stunned, I just stood there with my mouth open and then walked away because I was about to say something mean.
I feel stuck between a rock and a hard place; I don't want her in the bridal party anymore but if I do that, the DH's parents would be really mad at me. I ask her to do something so simple, it took his mom and I less than 45 minutes to do it. Yet, she laughed it off and made it clear it wasn't important to her at all. I want so badly to ask her to at least not sit at the head table with us; I can not believe how rude she was and how she hasn't helped at all. Its one thing to not do anything or not offer; some people don't know any better. But to blatantly laugh at someone when they ask you to help is unheard of!
Please let me know if people think I am over reacting; I don't know if I am blowing this out of proportion but I feel like this is a bit warranted. I ask for 30 minutes of her time and she laughs at me. I am so hurt and frustrated and upset. The DH said just to brush it off because "that's just the way she is". I find that hard to believe; are people really that callous and rude?
Ugh, I am so tired of drama; is it June 18 yet?????
