It may be cut so you could wear it with heels, but if it's so long that it won't hang right, you can have it hemmed.
I wish Sonya would have picked that dress. she chose sleeveless (very unflattering for me) in January.
I'm really, really, really glad she didn't pick sleeveless! I don't do sleeveless.
It looks like a very nice early spring dress! I could still prolly use the super underwear, but at least I can zip it. I wasn't sure that'd be the case.
Also this place sizes stuff normal. It's my usual size, which is kinda nice. Not that it really matters since sizes vary so much, but you know what I mean!
Heels...ick. I need to get some and practice with 'em, I think. I don't own shoes I can wear to this.
But heels are evil. I'm clumsy enough as it is!
Get flats and have it hemmed then... no one will see your feet ;~D
If you want to make yourself feel better about the color though, here is a site that could probably do it :

It *is* a pretty dress!
Course there are no shoes made that match it. you could maybe get away with white, or the ones they'll dye to match.
Rosie it's GORGEOUS!! I can't wait to see a picture of you in it!!
Hey, I just made spaghetti with the ground turkey I've been buying lately. Not too bad! Actually, not bad at all! The jedis really didn't notice anything unusual and I could really only tell there was a slight texture difference! I prefer to give the jedis red meat, but right now the 69 cent price tag on the ground turkey was a better idea. I'm so proud! This is the tally...
Ground turkey 1lb .69
Hunt's Spaghetti sauce (in a can) .89
Spaghetti noodles, (39 cents per 32oz box, I used less than half) .19
That's 1.77 for an entire meal WITH LEFTOVERS!
I'll likely go with white.
But I'm gonna attempt to get Ben to ask his fiancee what SHE wants us to wear. We'll see if he can actually remember to do so. ;-)
What about hair? Is there a hair advisory also? I'd get him to try to find that out too ;~D
The kindest thing a friend of mine did when she was having a formal wedding with a tomboy like me for a bridesmaid was to hire a hair and makeup person to come and do it for us ;~D
Eek! I don't have any idea there! I guess I'd HAVE to have someone do my hair and makeup, 'cause I don't even wear makeup and wouldn't have a clue. And I'm not exactly Miss Fashion when it comes to hair, either. That's something I really need to find out...
Margaret and I are thinking that if we drive, we'll probably try to get there a day or two before the air travelers. That might give me time to scope out the local beauty parlors if she doesn't have anything lined up! Or it's possible her sisters could help me, I dunno.
Heh... I'd be happy to help too... I know where most of the makeup is supposed to go, and I own a curling iron ;~D
Hair's hair was really did look nice...and she does have a curling iron, she sat out on the porch and curled her hair with it. I saw her!
I know this > < much about being a girl ;~D
Well, you know how to curl your hair! I never did figure that out, except my bangs and only then because my curling iron had retractable bristles, otherwise my hair would get tangled and start smoking before I could get the thing loose!
Howzat alimony thing workin' out?
~sigh~ I actually was planning to grill pork chops, but we're out of propane.
I'm seriesly thinking of getting a charcoal grill.
Cook what I did! It was quick, easy, and only cost a buck seventy seven!
LOL!
Call the pizza guy :~D
