A new dress

How many of you have ever bought one of those clothing items that you have no idea where you are going to wear but it was resonably priced and you just had to have it??? I can say it rarely happens to me but today I fell victum to this very event. I was out shopping at a second hand shop where I get lots of my clothes and other things and there was this dress, a formal type dress, totally impractical for much I admit, and yet I had to have it. Where will I wear it? I have no idea, oh but I have shoes to match it so it's all ok!!! Mayby I'll wear it on my next cruise vacation formal dinner. I don't know but it's just so different than any dresses I own or have ever owned that I thought it should come home with me. It's navy blue, sleevless, with a narrow waist, 3 tiers of sheer fabric gathered and falling down from the waist, and then a sheer layer, cape of sorts falling over the shoulders. It's floor length, fits me to a T, and was under $10 so how could I leave it at the store for some less deserving patron???? I think I might have to take the fabric rose off from by the neck though and maybe figure out a way to make it into a hair peice or something because it might be just a big much! As if the dress isn't. Oh well hopefully someday I get a chance to wear it.

Now back to my homework...

I think you should get a picture taken in this new dress and post it on this blog--I need a visual (can't picture exactly what you mean by the "three tiers..."

Sounds very nice Crystal! I'd always say go for it, if you have a chance like that to get a beautiful dress, even if you're not going to wear it very often. At that price, who can resist. :-)

Or we could get dressed up and go out for dinner sometime Kristi! Yes I'll see what I can do about getting a photo posted some time soon.

Oh yes! I have so many formal/nice attire that I hardly ever get to wear anymore (it's always scrubs scrubs scrubs!) We must make a point of getting dressed up and going to a fancy place for dessert or something!
