That dress doesn't even look young to me, flea. Pretty though. And anything called Striped Jillian Dress seems like a must to wear.

Sanity check: can a woman who is 40 (i.e. me) wear this dress to her 26 year old half-sister's wedding? It fits like a dream, but, 40.
If it fits like a dream, then wear the hell out of it.
Maybe no fauxhawk, though.

It feels very sweet and scrubbed-cheeks and pink~, in a 15 year old sort of way. I would not hesitate at all if it were navy stripes, oddly.

Because books.
I think that would look very elegantly "summer in the Vineyard" on you, flea. Anything you like that fits like a dream is a good thing.

Why the hell not? Especially if it fits like a dream. But I don't see any reason why it's not age appropriate. Then again, I live in LA so make of that what you will.

Only got redacted, but got the general gist. If it is what I think it is, it would have gotten you automatically suspended and unable to walk at graduation pending a hearing where they'd decide whether to expel you. The only way you walked with an incomplete was if it was for administrivia- like the book fines mentioned.
At Taylor's graduation, the books were blank, but they picked up the actual certificates in a building next door right after. She told me you didn't even get to walk if you weren't eligible for a diploma.

flea, it is your mission to show young lasses that 40 yo's are beautiful women who can rock a dress.
Now, if you were proposing to wear Mary Janes with knee socks and an overall/bibbed skirt, I might protest.

flea, you should wear the dress. I think it will look very elegant on you.
And anything called Striped Jillian Dress seems like a must to wear.
My only quibble with that statement is that a dress called Striped Jillian Dress should be in either black and pink, or black and white.

That is obviously true.
