the nightmare that is buying a REAL prom dress |
Lead | |
|
this is it. youngest miss dmb is a senior. there is a place near midway airport (an hour from my house) that sells prom dresses. this year, EVERYONE that's
anyone (according to her) is getting their prom dresses there, and wewt!! you get a free tshirt that says you got it there to wear to school, which EVERYONE is
doing. i left my house at 2:30. walked into the pandemonium that is the dress shop at 3:30. apparently, you pick one dress, and they give you a number. we got
number 32. they were on number 82. once you begin trying on, the same person stays with you until you pick a dress. they went from 82 to 100, then 1 to 32
before it was our turn, you sit there the whole time, waiting. for the cost of only 432 dollars, i got out of there at 6:30 p fucking m. oh, and she got the
tshirt.

actually, it isn't bad on. there were lots of slutty ass dresses with cut outs. that looks really bad. really bad. very few dresses between
"stripper" and "princess"

Next time have lesbian daughters. We really don't care much about the prom dresses. We just get one that fits and run out. Mom made at least one of mine.
My 10 yo niece can wear my senior prom dress. It is the right length if she has on heels. It is a bit loose in the waist, but beyond that it looks as if it were made for her. I was sooooo tiny when I was 17. |

Goodness, it was totally no big deal shopping for my dress either time. There were a few good places to go, they had a million dresses and the stock tunover
was so quick that the chances of someone else wearing the same thing were tiny. Totally a good shopping experience. Sorry you had a rough time.

I think the blue would look better with silver trim instead of the gold.
Just sayin.... |
