I am going to a baby shower on Saturday and I have nothing to wear. I also do not have time to shop, but I browsed some online stores anyway.
My first stop was Anthrolopogie. Everyone I know is raving about their clothes. I never buy clothes for myself. This is the honest truth. Never. I think I have purchased MAYBE 5 items of clothing for myself in the last year (maybe the past 2 years). No time to shop + no $$ = no new clothes. I know that this is shocking to some of you... but... welcome to my life. It CAN be done!
Imagine my surprise when I clicked on "dresses" at anthropologie.com and saw these numbers.
In case you are wondering. Those numbers range from $138 to $348.
Are you choking? Because I certainly was!
After I picked myself up on the floor, I immediately logged on to another website. I mean... for real people... is this how much you ladies are paying for dresses? No way!
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw these prices from Target. Yes, Target.
Um... the most expensive price among these three dresses is... $24.99! Thanks goodness. For a moment there I thought I might never own a new dress again.
For now, I will be wearing my "uniform" to the baby shower tomorrow. Uniform = black pants, black top, black sweater.
I'm thinking of getting something in a bubble gum pink color. Is bubble gum pink ONLY for babies? I'm going to need a little guidance here. You know, some advice... for the day that I do eventually buy a new article of clothing.

You can have any color you want..
And if you really want a dress.. have you considered sewing a skirt? They are real easy and you can use a top you already have...
Or maybe you could find something in your mom's closet???
You can always shop in my closet!!
Min- When I move back to the states I'm coming to Maryland and we are going to have a girls day and I'm taking you shopping and buying you a dress! Everyone woman needs a good dress. Just think of it as a late B-day gift!
Love ya
I am going through this exact same process- except for rain boots. It;s so darn hard!!! I wish you better luck than I'm having :)
Ok, I;m having de ja vu. I thought I commented here, but don't see it, so I'm just gonna send you another holla ok?!
I hear Bubbly gum pink will be the color of Spring. Well, not actually, but I wouldn't mind if it was!! go for it :)
