from the pictures the last one (pink) seems the best, but irl it was like a X_X decision. im going back tonight to pick one w/ my mom. suggestions?

$32 AND it's Jessica McClintock
It's supposed to be rhinestones and jewels in the front. But when I resized the photo I lost the HQ of it from my camera. Also to begin with, my photos were kind of blurry. Too lazy to retake them. -.-"
Should I get a slit cut in the front? Like I always imagined my prefect prom dress as "orange, halter and slit". Would it ruin the front now?
oh wow!
x3mango, you got a good deal!

i sort of got a good deal too but not as good as yours. haha.
if anyone wants to read my story, here it goes! lol
a few months ago i went to san francisco & visited the macy's there. it was hella early prom shopping but yeah w/e. it was just for fun (: [oh btw, my mom gave me a $50 limit to buy a prom dress.. -__-) mmk, so I saw this nice purpley dress in the back priced at $170

sure, i knew i wouldn't be able to get it, but hey; that doesn't mean i can't try it on right? (;
so i try it on.. and love it.

but yeah. $50 mom? haha funny. -__-
so between w/e month that was & now, i went to a bunch of other places to go prom shopping & found nothing D: when prom gets closer and closer, going prom dress shopping loses its fun-ness :/ anyway, last saturday, my friend invited me to san fran and i thought to myself THIS IS MY LAST CHANCE [f0reveralways]!!! asjdfklas. yeah.
okay lalala i want to Macy's and found ONE of that purpley dress left and it just HAPPENED to be in my size

but oh no. no price tag :/ so i ask the cashier lady to do a price check & it's only $60! yay. haha. but then *dun dun dun* tragedy strikes. there's a hole in the dress

but eh. it's on the side. i figured i could get my mom to sew it up. so i get discounted 15% for the rip & then my friend had some 20% off Macy's thing and i ended up paying only
$44 (with tax) on the once $170 purpley dress. yay. happy ending. haha.

i even managed to fit it under $50 like my mom asked!

i've never been more proud. lol

PS: i'm thinking about asking my mom to turn it into a halter or connecting the two upper parts of the X on the back into one line so it becomes a 3-way thing from the center instead of a 4-way thing. err yeah. sorry i suck at describing stuff

i plan on keeping my hair down for prom though.. so would it be unnecessary? :/
