Costcouture





I think my favorite thing to do as a kid was to go to Costco and run around the store pirating food from the food sample carts. Now that I've grown up and matured...I can't even finish that sentence, that's still one of my favorite things to do.

One of the best things about Costco is that it can save you a whole ton of money if you know what you're doing. Yes, there is a science to shopping at Costco.  Something new you'll be seeing at this mega-retailer shortly? dum dum dum dum wedding dresses! Yeah, you read that right, according to the LA Times , Costco is going to sell wedding dresses. 

The designer, Kristie Kelly, formerly the designer for Disney Bridal before Alfred Angelo took it over, is now starting a new line of affordable couture bridal gowns for Costco. Proclaiming her dress line “Costcouture”. Like Alfred Angelo, the dresses she'll be designing will be affordable for almost any budget. The dresses start at $699 and end at $1,399 and will be sold at trunk shows in Costco stores.

Is this the new beginning of Costco bridal chic? Will other mega retailers soon pick up the trend?? Could there be a new line of Walmart wedding dresses in the near future?!?

I'm not sure what to think about this new endeavor, but man would that be convenient! I mean, you can get your 100 pound bag of dog kibble, month supply of paper towels, and hey! Don't forget the wedding gown!
