About clothes
Would anyone like to get dressed up in fancy clothes and go to a nice restaurant? Or maybe just hang out in fancy clothes? We wouldn't even need to do anything fancy; I just need an excuse to wear more fancy dresses.
Last week, I found a fashion find that I must brag about. Around Prom time, JC Penny started carrying a dress label called Pearl designed by Georgina Chapman, one of ladies behind the designer duo of Marchesa. These dresses were GORGEOUS. They had ruffles, embroidered lace, lace overlays, and fishtail skirts. Clearly, they were meant for prom but I would've been happy to buy one just to wear to the next fancy ball I might happen to go to. However, these dresses were also about a $100+. The most expensive was $180. So, I didn't buy one at the time.
Last week, I decided to pop into a JC Penny because they carry Betseyville and I wanted to see if any of the jewelry was on clearance. Imagine my delight when I found those Pearl/Georgina dresses on clearance! And reduced to just $20! I bought 4 of them AND used a coupon that took $15 off a purchase of $75 or more. And in my size! Well, almost. One dress is a tad too big, but I'd rather have something fit just a little too big than too small.
I was putting them away in my closet today and I just kept admiring all the lovely details. But now I have to problem of too many dresses (as if that's possible). And like, fancy dresses. I need excuses to wear them! I'm so happy Dietrich likes to dress up sometimes AND that he likes going to Lolita meetups AND that he's WILLING to dress up for Lolita meetups ^_^.
I guess I have had clothes on the mind a lot recently. Today, my order of officially licensed BSG double tank tops arrived! I'm SOOOO excited! They are screen accurate and sourced from the same manufacture that made the tank tops for the TV show :D. Also, I recently organized a Bodyline group order.
