Mindless googling

You'd think that going shopping for prom dresses with your eldest daughter would be fun, but when you walk into most of the stores at the mall, or even nice boutiques, and all you see are dresses that look like doormats...it can get a little frustrating not to mention exhausting!

Luckily we have the internet!

 Sierra's prom is on March 23rd, and we are running out of time in finding her the right dress. She is planning on going stag with some girlfriends, and it doesn't matter to her whether she ends up going or not. I know deep down she would really like to go after all she only has a year and a half of high school left, and would really like to attend and remember both her junior and senior proms.

I really think it's all about the dress. She is really picky when it comes to taste in modesty which is good because she doesn't want to settle for anything that is immodest showing too much skin. Sometimes she doesn't even care to wear a strapless or sleeveless gown even if she wears a bolero jacket. She says you're basically still wearing a strapless or sleeveless dress...you're just covering it up.

No... she is not being a snob about it because I have to agree with her. Although there are pretty dresses out there that are long length, but still a little too revealing, we don't judge anyone for wearing them. She has a choice, and the choice she has made is to find one that is comfortable, and FULLY modest.

I was googling all night, and half of today trying to find her the perfect dress. She is like a size 0, and most of these cute dresses are sizes 4-9!!! After endless googling I found a few that caught my eye, and showed them to her. 

The prices are not too bad either. They are all under $150.00. I'm lucky because she can pass them on down to her sisters when it's their turn to go prom or homecoming! 

Sierra loves color, and is debating on wearing a knee length dress, or a long dress. I think all of these are lovely, and these are the ones she liked:

This dress is darling! We love the baby blue beadwork, and ribbon accents on the dress. 

Capped sleeves= modesty...

 The ruffles on this blue dress are so cute...especially the collar. 

She loves the chiffon, and cream colors of these dresses. She loves the A line draped neckline dress.  The one on the right shows a little skin on the shoulders, but we can always add cream material underneath.

If she can quickly decide on which one she'd like to get...hopefully it will shipped here in time, possibly have it altered (if it needs to be), and ready before next month. We will see what happens. Wish us luck!
