I've been invited to a wedding. Everything was going along fine until I read the fine print of the invitation and it said "Black tie appropriate"- my husband does not even own a suit! I've never been to anything so fancy in my whole life. I've been in a panic about what I will wear. Well yesterday I got off work early went to Nordstroms told them my problem and they fixed me up with the perfect "Little black dress". It has wonderful sheer sleeves so my flabby out of shape arms are perfectly hidden. Never dressing up I'll have to practice walking in the heels I have so that I don't trip and fall. One would think I was the bride the big deal this has become! Although I am looking forward to seeing my husband in a tuxedo, I've not seen him in one since we got married. Which by the way our anniversary was yesterday-15 years!! I will take pictures when the day arrives to document the strange and unusual, Bruce and Lorrie dressing up. Have a nice week-end.
Oooh can't wait!

ReplyDeleteI'm not much for getting dressed up but do have a couple of outfits for art openings...it's the only time I can wear my own jewelry around here, lol! (we're very "coastal casual" dontcha know!)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your anniversary, Lorrie. Your little black dress looks great. I know how you feel about dressing up. I hardly have an occasion to dress up either. You'll both have the "Wow" factor.
ReplyDeleteLove the dress! I know you will be stunning and have a great time.
