Saturday we had a wedding to go to... the bride's parents have been friends with my husband's family for years. I love going to weddings, because I love having an excuse to get dressed up. For this wedding, I had a few options... I had a blue/green floral chiffon Ann Taylor dress from last year that I could wear with gold sandals, but I wanted to get something new (this is usually the case with me). I first picked up a royal blue Calvin Klein number and found some really "edgy" Nine West silver heels to pair with it. However, at the last minute, on Friday, I felt like the cut of the dress was too boring. So my Mom, Charlotte, and I ran over to the mall. We had to walk through JC Penney's to get to the actual mall, and my Mom suggests to me that I should look there. I've never bought anything from Penney's... well, that's a little lie... I did buy a couple pair of materntiy shorts... but that's it :)
So, anyways, lo and behold they have a TON of dresses.... I grabbed about 5 to try on in 15 minutes, and the last one I tried on was actually really cute! I ended up wearing it.... So, my lesson learned is never to underestimate JC Penney's! Here are a couple pics of the dress.
My 2nd lesson learned is that I need to do something about my hideous pale legs... running... tinted lotion... something!
We have another wedding to go to this Friday night. The couple got married a few weeks ago in Jamaica, and this will be a more casual reception for family & friends now that they're back home. The big question of the week will be do I wear my "new" JC Penney number or do I buy something new??
