Alas, it fits. :-( May be a winner.<BR/><BR/>please sir - $250 -- while out of my thrifty range -- sounds pretty good??

My friend lent me 7 of her dresses, all top designs and like brand new and none of them fit, two days before and I was in serious trouble. Guess where I went, yep Vinnies looking for something else and got my dress for 5 dollars. plain and simple and cut beautifully it fit me like a glove, not really up to the minute fashion tho but once I was there it was just right. <BR/><BR/>anyway I love that J Crew dress, I'm really digging that style at the moment, I wouldn't even go near silk tho, even without 3 kiddos I am far too sloppy to be wearing something like that<BR/><BR/>oh yeah and can you believe I found those oars, I was so excited..heehee <BR/><BR/>SarahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
