Beautiful girl. I may steal the design of the top half of the dress for my bridesmaids. I like the little bow ribbon look but it will have to be at waist level coz they're all very busty girls (36DD, 36D and 36C) But that neck line should work for them. Funnily, one of my bridesmaids introduced me to eating chocolate lipgloss when we did Annie together 9 years ago. Strange parallels.

We found that dress in a local discount store early last summer for $3.We looked at it and knew it was perfect for Tyler. Melissa paid $7 to get a new zipper put in it. Considering that some girls spend in excess of $200 on a prom dress, I think it was a steal.

I love bargains.

Wow, that was lucky. Not sure of values and how they convert in terms of my money but one digit has got to be cheap.

My dad just got me a fake rolex in Kuwait for $1 and it cost me R20 (our currency is called the Rand) to get some links removed from the strap. That's about $4. I thought it was very amusing that it cost four times more to take a bit off it than the total value.

The dress looks brand new. You would never say it wasn't. I love vintage clothes, especially dresses, and my city is the place in South Africa that starts all the trends so we have an entire street (Long Street) that is just snobby clubs, elite clothing boutiques and vintage clothing stores. I live one street away. It's like shopping heaven when they all have a sale.

Wow! That is definitely in the "bargain of the century" category!
And she does look so nice.
