Well ladies, I finally broke down and bought a beautiful dress last night. It is a black velvety long evening gown. I have always loved black velvety dresses. It has a blingy diamond of diamonds on the front right between the breasts. It matches a pair of strappy velvety black shoes I have had for a while now. I'll post some pictures when I get a chance. I had a few minutes before work this morning and I slipped it on along with one of my wigs. I was in heaven - what a way to wake up!

Katrina, Sounds nice. Did you try it on in the store?

Jodi

Yes I did. It was in Hechts which is closing soon due to the Macy's buyout (this was in a mall with both, so Hechts loses). I spent about a half hour in the dress section poking around trying to find the perfect dress(es). Unfortuntely, I only found this one - looking back, its probably better that I didn't find more than one because my wallet would hurt. I picked up this dress and was going to the ladies dressing room when several young :eek: girls walked in. Thinking that I didn't want to cause any "trouble", I went up to the sales lady and said, "I'm going downstairs to try this on in the men's fitting room." She kind of looked at me like that was a strange comment and said, "Why?" I motioned to the fitting rooms and said they looked pretty busy and she said "Oh." I walked down to the men's fitting room and tried it on. I brought it back upstairs and found a 3 for a good price set of panties and bought all four items.

Katrina, Good for you. Nothing worse than getting a sale dress and have it not fit right.

What a great dress! There weren't any girls that looked that good at any of my Prom's. Katrina it's you, you look fabulous. Are you sure your old enough to be out shopping all alone?

Miss Pinchy,

It's always nice when you find a dress you like. It's even more exciting when you try it on.

I give you lots of credit for your honesty telling the sales woman you wanted to try it on.

I don't think I could do that even though I'd like the attention of a young woman helping me find the right dress size. I know my wife certainly wouldn't go for that.

Not much more to add, Katrina--the dress is great, of course, but I think it is just a crown on your whole purchase experience!!

You shopped, tried it on, bought it and modelled it...here's hoping that you will soon be all dressed up with someplace to go!

You look good in the dress Katrina. I am very V shaped and strapless doesn't look as good on me. Congratulations.
