So Bored...

It's getting to that time of year where things are getting stale.

February is gone. Spring Break and Prom are in April.

Prom

Here's My Dress (as you may have suspected, that's not me in it)

Here's a close-up of the wonderful beading (not close enough to really enjoy it though)

And here's the Back

Not the best of quality, but that's what I could get. There will be more pictures (with me in the dress) after Prom.

Having lost almost 22 lbs, this dress looks great on me. We found it in a Pennsylvania formal chain called Head to Toe. We found the place when we were at a bridal expo in Wilkes Barre with my soon-to-be aunt. The company had put on a "fashion show" that really wasn't any good, but I did see some dresses that were just amazing. So, the next weekend (last weekend) we )Mom and I) went to the direct outlet. I saw many of the beautiful dress that I saw in the fashion show, but they were all extremely expensive. So we looked around until we found this one. I tried it on, it fit and looked great. I tried a few others on, but I obviously walked away with this one. The people there were nice and honest. They told me when I didn't look good and usually I agreed. They weren't pestering me and pushing me to buy, they were just there to help me out when I needed them. Once they got my name they acted like I was their only customer (the place was, in fact, packed). We weren't there for long and we scored a beautiful, well-priced dress (under $200). YAY!

Now that I have the dress, I need to design the mask. I was thinking about using the same colors and trying to mimick the beading on the top of the dress at the top of the mask... But that's later. I'll post pics of the mask when it's done.
