Wowza, ita! What size are the shoes? If you don't think you'll wear them again, I'd buy them from you.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I'm wearing black to at least two wedding this month.
They're nine, Aimée -- will that work for you?
I love the dress -- I was grateful for the slimmest of excuses to buy it. My wardrobe is very geometric, and lacking in pretty (although I like pretty -- it just never showed up). That dress is both geometric and pretty (you should see the silk move).
The shoes -- well, if I'm going to integrate delicate shoes into my wardrobe, I need baby steps.
I think I want this in vintage rose.

Yes'm. Specially in Caparros.
Nice, Betsy.
This [link] is what I'm wearing to my upcoming weddings. [ETA except without the freaky hair and facial expression.] Both are afternoonish ceremonies with dinner reception. I'm trying to figure out options for a wrap or coat of some sort - it's supposed to be about 50 this weekend, and god knows what it'll be like on the 29th. Ideas? Shoes for the first one at least will be strappy black sandals, a lot higher (and less delicate) than ita's.
ita you liar, you have loads of pretty dresses in your closet. Still, why not add one more?
I have only one pretty dress, okay two, but only one that fits me at my current boobage. And even so, I have way more dressy dresses than I have opportunity to wear them.
My problem is that I look at those pictures and love the dresses, but I can't see them on me. I completely lack that ability to transfer a dress from a reed thin model to what it might look like on my size 18 bumpy body.
Blarg.

I have going-out dresses that I'd describe as ... well, words that imply less delicacy than pretty. Hot, perhaps, or eye-catching (I don't shop by occasion, but rather because I passed something in a store window), but NSM with the pretty. The dress I wore to the LA F2F is probably the prettiest I had before this, or maybe the blue I wore to last year's weddings.
Let's just say -- this was the first time in 26 years I've needed delicate shoes.
Aimée, they're yours (as of about 11pm Saturday night, I suspect).
Damn, ita. Please take a picture when you're wearing that dress.
ION, the existence of Graeters pumpkin ice cream (back for the season) is proof enough of a benevolent deity. Sweet lord, is that stuff amazing.
