Life Went prom dress shopping with my 17 year old ..Royal blue was our mission. - Page 14

Gracie Dean · 11:17 AM

She is actually doing her Jr/Sr year all in the same year so this is her only prom.

We usually do not make a good pair when shopping for her, our tastes are NOT in sync.

Today...we went to one store, didn't like anything there...either of us.

I suggested SEARS...she said oh mom, that is such a low end old lady clothes store, they won't have anything...

I said, well, lets just go see... (mom isn't stupid and was once 17)

We ride up the escalator and right at the top was the most beautiful blue dress with puffs (Imagine the gold ball dress of Belle from Beauty and the Beast only strapless)

she said, well they probably won't have my size, and it will have to be altered...

first dress was the correct size

I said try it on. she said okay

tried it on...FITS like a GLOVE even the length and the bust...we noswad women are blessed with ample cleavage.

she said but it's 169 dollars...(she didn't know dad said we could go to 250)

I said that is okay...

I asked if she liked it...she said yes it was perfect and just what she had in mind.

I said do you want to look anywhere else...she said no, someone might take this one. I said well lets buy it then. She said but it is expensive...I said it was within budget.

Get to the register SALE we got it for 149 after taxes ect...

SO Shoes to go with it.. strappy little silver numbers.

All in all it was a GREAT day
