Why am I scared? I like to think of myself as thrifty. I hate to spend a lot of money on something that will only be used once. Case in point, my wedding dress was under $300 and I thought that was a lot of money. I liked how we did it last year. She didn't have any particular style in mind, so we went to a used dress sale, and she was able to find a brand new dress (still had the tags regularly marked at $500) for $30. Then while we were at Goodwill, we found another dress, that I liked more, for $30. So for $60 she was able to get a dress for morp (kind of like prom but for the freshman & sophomores) and a dress for prom.

This year she's decided to more picky about her dress. It has to have shoulder straps (nothing halter top or spaghetti straps. Nothing to low cut in front or back and must be about knee length. These are all her requirements for the prefect dress, so I really can't complain about modesty. And it must be alternative, whatever that means. She showed me one she found online some where, but I've never heard of the site before and was a little leery about buying one online because of some of the horror stories I've heard. I'm trying to talk her into a cute vintage inspired cocktail dress from J.C Penney's. If I'm going to spend the money it should be something she could wear again. We'll see how it goes.
