Jackpot!

Ladies, I have found it! I have found THE DRESS. My Dad must be my good luck charm because we went to the mall together today and  the dress just jumped out at me. It is amazing, tight and beautifully seamed in the bodice then it becomes slightly loose right above the hips. To top it off it has my two favorite things, it is royal blue, TJ's favorite color and it has pockets! The only thing I don't like is that it is a thin spaghetti strap, which I am not too fond of, but I may just sew a thicker strap on. OOOO, I am soo enthused!

Okay I need to lay off the posts. I just had to let the world know my excitement!

Much Love,
Delainey

The Perfect Dress?

I don't normally go shopping. In all honesty, I HATE spending money on myself. I am not exactly sure why, but I would much rather buy someone a gift, or a fun adventure with some friends. My mom has to constantly remind me to "Invest in myself" because it is something I never do. Anyhow, today was slightly different. I was excited to go shopping! Why you ask, well, get ready for it....

TJ COMES HOME IN ONE WEEK!!

AHH, I have been so excited (and anxious/nervous). I have been on cloud 9 and yesterday I officially took off of work the days of his homecoming and 96. Needless to say, this homecoming I've been dreaming about for the past 7 months slowly becoming a reality. So today I was exciting to go shopping for the PURRRFECTTT homecoming outfit. Courtney and I went to the Spectrum, I found a few things (2 to be exact, 1 shirt and 1 belt), but NO DRESS!! Nothing!! I'm not sure what is up with the fashion these days, but holy moley, everything is an extremely short, strapless, printed or color blocked, disgusting mess!! Would it kill someone to put a cute dress with straps in their stores? Or maybe something that covers my crotch, which should be easy, I'm only 5'2. What is going on?? I am quite upset. I guess my search will continue for that perfect dress.
