Little Black Dress...

I told Trent that all I wanted for Christmas this year was a little (relative of course) black dress. He tried, he tried really hard... but in the end he kind of got me a mom dress. Not what I was going for. I wanted one I could feel hot in.



So I took it back and started looking for a dress that would work and that I loved. I went over to J Crew to look at what they had... hoping for a clearance miracle! There was no clearance miracle, but I did find this beauty...






... for $268!!! A little more than I wanted to spend.




Then the clearance miracle happened... I checked out what they had over at Down East and look what I found...




Yes!! The same dress (or you know, extremely similar.) I called my sister in law to see if she could go by the Down East up in Salt Lake (they don't have this nice modest store in this sinful town that I live in...) to see if they had one there. Sure enough, they did for $34!




Ahhhh.... I'm a happy girl!

I love it. You are going to look great. You'll have to wear it on your first 'hot' date with Trent this month.

I've been in love with that JCrew dress for months.They had some really cute colors in the summer. And I don't think it's going on sale anytime soon...bummer. But it's amazing how similar the Down East dress is. Nice purchase!
