So the story behind this dress…
I definitely wanted something vintage, some gorgeous and breathtaking and unlike anything I’ve ever seen. AND, I wanted to avoid that dreaded, most horrifying prom experience.. when you see another girl IN THE SAME EXACT DRESS AS YOU. shudder
I feel like the best things in my wardrobe are the things that I never was seeking out directly — the items I cherish the most are the items that i just happened to come upon while skimming, or not even actually actively searching.
So when I found this dress on Nasty Gal Vintage, it was literally love at first sight. All I can (vaguely) remember is a slight panic-attack-ridden, hyperventilating, screaming… er. Let’s just say, it was meant to be.
My best friend, who was also planning the entire dance, told me that I had somehow matched perfectly to the dance’s color scheme: black and gold.
All in all… perfect, right? And the beautiful corsages were made by a local florist who truly has a gift in flower arrangement.
Needless to say, perfect prom.
Vey classy, love ur hairdo!
