Presented with nothing to do, nowhere to go, and a day off last Saturday, i decided to go look at prom dresses. And i do mean look. Prom is April 26. Its months away. I had no intention whatsoever of buying a dress. I really just wanted to get an idea of what i wanted, because it usually takes twenty stores and ten thousand dresses before i make up my mind...
The first place i went was A Special Occasion in West Frankfort and i have never bought a dress there before. I never really find anything i like, but i thought i would look. I looked around, picked out a few dresses and tried them on. I wasnt real happy with any of them and i was about to say "lets leave" when my mom was like "what about this one?" On the rack, i didnt really like the color and i didnt really like the shape and i was like "blah" but i tried it on anyway and i was like "OMG. This is the dress"...So i bought it...
Its kind of like an tealy-aquamarine color and pretty poofy with like blue and green netting and a little bit of beading on the bottom. The top has a lot of silvery beading all over it, and its strapless and laces down in the back. Its absolutely gorgeous.
Its basically like a miracle that i found a dress so soon and at the first place i went. The problem is that i cant gain any weight between now and prom. Looks like i better start doing sit ups.
So...has anyone else got their dress yet?
