i Found my Dress!!!!!!

I had appointments at two salons and had a very strict budget. At the first salon I went to, I was told that I would find nothing in my budget.

I had appointments at two salons and had a very strict budget. At the first salon I went to, I was told that I would find nothing in my budget. She put me in her absolute cheapest (ugliest) dress first to show me that I would need to spend a lot more to find a quality dress that I loved. I thought I fell in love with the next dress I tried on, but it was 50% over my budget! With the sweetest council from my aunt, we decided to leave the dress and keep looking.
We still had plenty of time before our next appointment, and my Aunt (the real hero of the day, obviously) suggested we go to a little dress salon she knew about. The store had already been closed for 45 minutes when we showed up, but the owner let us come in and helped me find a few dresses I might like, all of which were within my budget! I thought I was looking for a sexy sheath, but the minute I tried on this classy ball gown I started tearing up! I knew it was the one!

I said yes yes to the Dress!

(Please excuse my face, my mom was taking pictures and I didn't realize!)

    Such a lovely and elegant dress! I'm so happy you found something you love. I'm so sorry about what the first salon did to you though! That was just so rude of them!
