I commented later that night, "I guess I'm just not very good at being a girl."
That, or you're the BEST GIRL EVAH!!!1!!
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I spent two hours at the mall last night trying to find something to wear to a wedding. I must be getting old, or something, because I found everything uniformly hideous. The ugly went to eleven. I thought I might be on Candid Camera.
I've been having the same problem. I finally ended up with a grey skirt and sweater, which the salesperson told me is the new summer color. (Frankly, it was the first thing in 15 stores which wasn't ugly, came close to fitting properly, and had long enough sleeves and hem and high enough neckline. But really, just ruling out the ugly stuff was a good half the store.)

Actually, I think there are pictures from the '80s...
...which none of you shall ever see.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What kind of dresses do you like, Hil and shrift? Me, I'm easy. I want a million dresses that I could wear to weddings. I just don't have a million dollars, nor a million weddings.
I'm flipping through bluefly, and I can see where what's out there probably doesn't match either of your dress codes.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ha! Me too -- it's my automatic response to someone online saying they just bought a dress.

I like whiskey AND pink - not mutually exclusive. ex-cigarette and gas (diesel) purchaser. Can't sync up on the comics though.
non-ruffley, pleated or horridly colored 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
but the stuff out there in general is pretty scary - lots of shredded looking hems.

But really, just ruling out the ugly stuff was a good half the store.)
Also, there's a lot of stealth fug out there right now. You know, when you see what looks like a nice black dress hanging and then you pull it off the rack and find that there's bright blue and blaze orange appliqued kittens or some shit all down the front.

What kind of dresses do you like, Hil and shrift?
Mostly, what I was going for was something that was a) not floral, b) not overly ruffly, c) not fluorescent, and d) wouldn't require me to buy feat-of-engineering-underwear.
Am now flipping through Bluefly. But I have the feeling I'll end up buying a suit and just wearing a cleavagey slutbomb shirt to make it festive.
