The Verdict on the Lepore

Last week Garrette informed me that my dress is ugly and that her boyfriend thinks it's ugly too. I promised her that it was just the lighting and my camera, and that the dress is really very beautiful in real life. She wasn't convinced, so I brought the dress to work to prove it to her. She now takes back what she said, and has joined in her voice of support for keeping the purchase.

I showed Paul my dress this weekend as a final stamp of approval. His only response was that it is way too low. Not sure when he turned into the Modesty Nazi, but he said it that it's too low three times. I insisted that I will pin it or wear a camisole under it, but when I said "camisole" he looked like he'd just taken a big wiff of bad fish. That is the face he makes when he is confused about something girly. He doesn't know what a camisole is, and I really shouldn't expect him to.

I'm keeping the dress. Thank you everyone for reminding me why it's nice to not share a bank account.
