Lucky I did, because they mentioned a trip down the street for some t-shirts, belt buckles, and Hunter S. Thompson-esque cigarette holders. I eagerly joined and while everyone was trying on t-shirts, Fortune smiled on me, enough to present to me THE DRESS that I have been looking for since forever--namely, since I saw Krisatomic's version.
It's a floaty, dreamy, white vintage nightgown, perfect with a skinny or a wide belt, alone in summer or layered in winter. I was especially taken by the sweet springlike embroidery at the neckline.
And, priced at $9, I was running to the checkout line and begging for the boys to hold up. I can't wait to wear it out this way:
Never mind my messy room. It's definitely too late to unpack at this point.
Well, I'm about to go and watch The Namesake with my mom--we both loved the book. Oh, and two things:
1. You just read my 100th post!
2. Check out The Iced Coffee Book Club for sure!

Hm. Well, the dress is adorable. Sort of reminds me of Heidi. The girl who runs with goats, and pushes a girl in a wheelchair off a mountain? And 100 posts is cool.
