Vloggy vlog vlog

Isn't vlog a funny word? It looks so weird all typed out, too. Let's look at it bigger:

VLOG
Weird, right? Ok, so I did a vlog. Surprisingly, I loved it. And I loved watching it back. I didn't think I would AT ALL. I usually hate myself on camera. In photos? Love. Moving picture? Not so much. But this wasn't bad and I really hope you guys like it. If not, please tell me and I'll never do it again. Also, I did it in black and white. I have no idea why. I think I looked more cute in B&W.

The vlog is about my (terrible) experience with Alfred Angelo. Also, I kind of insult Wal-Mart and talk about being "ghetto." If either of these things offend you...I'm not sorry. Watch and enjoy!

  1. Oh my gosh, I already tweeted this, but I love your voice and mannerisms! They're exactly what I pictured for you. Which is weird. But whatever.

    Post a picture of the dress! I want to see! LOVE that you really will wear it again!

    And can I please fly out east and drink wine and be ghetto with you and Kelly too?! I went over this in my comment on your post about knowing the lyrics to every song, but I'm pretty much an insane rapper. Just sayin.

  2. Haha - you are not selling Vloging (ugh, odd word) with this intro lady!

    Okay, 3rd time Jessica? Did you call your credit card company and ask them to just reverse the funds. Use them for a flight to Aruba and tell your friend/bride that you're way over this.

    O MY GOD JUST SHOW US A PHOTO OF THE DRESS.

    You are dealing with kindergartners. I have had better service with Walmart.

    You've been sassy, I don't understand how you are gehtto. I do not believe this. This is awesome. Do it all the time. ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME. Okay, maybe I have a problem after 3 hours of classwork.

    Maybe I should take nyquill and pass out.

    <3 ya night!

  4. Haha! Can I *like* this post?

    Poor customer service is one of my MAJOR pet peeves. Glad you made it a point to call them out on video! Good job ;)

  5. We used a bridal salon to order our Alfred Angelo dresses and now I'm so glad we did. It seems the bigger the company (WalMart, David's, etc) the worse their customer service is.

    And I'm with Kjpugs-- I totally heard a beep too, and got distracted trying to figure out what kind of message you got. :)

  6. Haha I love this post bc of 1. the vlog (do more!!) and 2. the comments.. especially kjpugs ;)

    I get SO frustrated dealing with incompotent people, especially when customer service IS YOUR DAMN JOB and it's really not that hard. I have to do it every day, and (I'm pretty sure) I don't sound like an idiot. Glad you got all sassy on them!

  7. Love it! I'm actually still laughing over KJ's comments, because apparently I'm ADD too. Oh man. And I'm not even going to bother demanding, because I know you're going to post a picture of the dress now, because the blog world needs to see.

    Seriously, leave them reviews on Google, Yelp!, and Yahoo! It'll make you feel better.

  8. I just saw this! I'm so behind. First of all, you are ADOREABLE! Second of all, I hate Alferd Angelo. Me and my BMs went in and they were rude. Not happy. Third, do another one!!!! I love your vlog!

  9. Not to sound creepy but you have really pretty skin. I'm super jealous. You remind me a lot of my old roommate, the way you talk and tell a story, it cracks me up.

    I got very lucky with both my wedding and bridesmaid dress shops and didn't thankfully have any issues with either.

    Show a pic of the dress!!!

  10. awesome! You're so cute!

    Yes so I actually have to order an Alfred Angelo dress for my friend's wedding in April. Turns out no one in Salt Lake carries them because Alfred Angelo is awful to work with if you aren't one of their "stores"...weird right?! I'm hoping this story has a happy ending...if not maybe I'll vlog it ;)

    High five vlogging blogging circle of friends! Seriously though, what an F'ED up story.

  14. Absolutely adorable Je... I mean Em! lol. I waited esspecially for tonight to check out your vlog (can't do it at work, it blocks it damn media sharing). Good story, hope to hear more and you should come to Indy, or wait until after my baby then me and KJ will RT and visit you!

  15. Ahhh I'm so late on this - apologies!

    1 - I have no idea why, but I totally didn't imagine your voice to sound like it does! I don't know what I was thinking it would sound like, but it was a surprise!

    2 - now you have me scared out of my wits to work with Alfred Angelo for a BM dress I have to get for April. Have you heard the story of how I'm wearing a flower girl dress because their sizing is ridiculous? Yep. Perhaps I should blog about that...

    3 - more vlogs please! Me likey.
