Before buying this dress we hit every thrift shop trying to find something that would fit her. If she had been a bean pole then we would have many choices. Any dress' we found for a girl of her size was down right ugly and frumpy.

I didn't have girls but a co-worker did, soon as prom was over we would go get dresses on clearence for 70 percent off sometimes.One time the exact dress my sons date paid 230 bucks for was marked down to 50 dollars !! She would buy for homecomming, winter formal and prom all for the price of one dress in the spring!Always had good luck at jc pennies,and macy's. Something to think about ;)

We are very lucky here for thrift stores and this year's dress did come from one. Do you have a store called "Deb's" in a mall near you? They have sizes up to 24W and if you hit the after prom sales you can be shocked at some of the prices. One dress we bought cost $20 and another that we bought and altered was only $7.50. We have often bought a dress ahead of time because my daughter's tastes are pretty firm. If she likes it now, she will like it for the next dance.

Who knows? If you keep your eyes open, you two might stumble on something fabulous before the next dance and be able to stretch your "going all out" money and still have left overs.

She's beautiful and her boyfriend is a looker as well. They make a cute couple.

We have a little break in the storm. Here is some pictures of her corsage and his bootineer. I can't spell today. They flowers and decorations on it were real pretty last night.

The bracelet

The roses. The flowers are wilting already.

his bootineer. It had a magnet in the back and a magnet that you put inside the pocket or where ever you want it at so that no pins are used at all.
