My dear, abeg, stalk the aisles of Marshalls' Filenes Basement, TJMaxx, Ross etc. You will definitely find something to your liking

Turums · 06-22-2006, 06:44 PM

thanks ladies. I guess that means I'll be spending time in the mall.

second question

the wedding is at 7 pm, so I guess that means it's a night wedding. what length dress should i get?

I agree.

I got this really nice dress from there for a wedding that I've rocked so many times... I would still be rocking it if I could fit in it

As par the dress length, I think anything if fine... but something around calf-length should be good.

night wedding hmm?

Turums · 06-27-2006, 08:08 PM
