I am still so stressed about prom :/ we went to the Lloyd Center yesterday because it's way bigger and has more stuff than WS, and I ended up getting two dresses + a pair of shoes. I love what I got, but I still don't feel like I have a prom dress.

so first we went to Ann Taylor and I found this really cute dress that I liked a lot, but we were like, "well, let's look around some more, this is only the first place we've been."

so then we went to this store called Alley Kat (...yeah) and I found a dress that was really cute and fit pretty well and everything, but...it wasn't a prom dress. I told my mom as much, and she was like, "well, let's see if they can put it on hold, just in case we can't find anything else," but then as we were going up to the register, she was like, "you know, this is only $30, and you still have graduation and your grad party to think about, so we might as well get it." so we got that, but I was thinking it would be for one of those events.

after that we went to a few other stores (there was this one dress at some random store that was perfect except for how the zipper was built really weirdly and I could only get it halfway up ;__;) but didn't find anything and eventually ended up at Marshall's, where I got an adorable dress (that I am going to wear to graduation because it is just awesome but wouldn't work for prom).

once we left Marshall's, I mentioned something to my mom about the Ann Taylor dress and she was like, "no, you've gotten two dresses already, that's plenty," and I just thought to myself, '...but I don't have a prom dress.' I just figured that I'd wear the first one and it'd be fine, but after I got home I started freaking out because I really don't think it's an appropriate dress. it's cotton and above the knee and just...not formal, even though I'm wearing it with a wrap (which I am a bit ://// about but my mom is pretty much insisting on it) and heels and tights and etc. (I started freaking out about my heels too because I love them but a) they are not that formal b) they're a little bit too big (but I'm stuffing the toes so that's okay) and c) I'm really worried that they're a lot tackier than I think they are, because they are really tacky but like awesomely so but...idk.)


...okay I just went and tried everything on again and...yeah. I still love my graduation dress but the prom dress I got is just...not so much. the problem is that I don't want to talk to my mom about it because she'll freak out and have that quiet, disappointed,"you are such a hassle, why are you wasting my time" attitude because LC is way the fuck out there and why didn't I mention this yesterday and this is her time and money we are talking about and etc. so it's probably easier to just go to prom in a dress that I don't like (and that doesn't really look that great on me) wearing ridiculous shoes and feeling like an absolute fool.

not looking forward to this.
