It's late. I am getting tired. But I found my dress. I wish I had the words to describe it adequately. I can do nothing but try. The bottom layer is a deep dark cranberry/wine color. The overlay is a small fishnet pattern. On the pattern there are lines that criss cross across the dress; Steph says they "undulate" across the dress. Every where the lines meet there is a shiny circle; like a sparkle drop. It is a 50's style dress that comes just below the knee and is completely strapless. I top it off with a Black Velvet Bolero small black and faux diamond earring and my wonderful Black Strappy heels. I am told the overall look is fabulous. I am nervous to wear this outfit. I have never worn something this formal and attention grabbing. Even my Prom dress, while formal was very plain Black classic style. This dress however is a "look at me" style. I don't like to be the center of people's attention. What if I do something wrong? What if I spill something? On top of it I promised my sisters I would wear this dress to church for Christmas Morning. Not all that abnormal for my family.. I am not sure it would fit in at church though. I might have to go back to the green velvet floor length skirt with a blouse. Plus I can just hear my mothers words. Could you get it to accentuate your breasts any more Rachel. You must have had all the boys staring..If only it were said in a way that meant looking at me was not a horrible thing.

Well I am going to bed. Good night one and all. Hopefully in the morning I will be over the sticker shock from tonight's shopping. Lol!
