So I either need to find a lace camisole to wear underneath it or a brooch I can wear with it.

sj, do you have any sports bras that go straight across? I've used those under shirts that were too cleavagey when I didn't want to wear another layer. There's also this, which you can probably find in your local drug store - [link]

Nora, yikes! Let me know if you want to get together and vent.

Neat!

Yikes indeed, Nora, but apparently a push in the direction of doing what you want to do. So that sounds good.

Smonster, thanks. I ended up getting a bra with a straight across lace overlay in a silver gray color that I think will look nice under the dress. It was from Kohls, so not too pricey.

This is the bra I bought to go under the dress. It's called a cami-bra because it looks like a camisole. I'm too exhausted to try it on with the dress tonight, but hopefully it will work.

There's also this: The Boob Tube.

Sounds pretty, sj. eta xpost. Very pretty!

I just made a *fabulous* pasta sauce using a locally made basic marinara jarred sauce and adding mushrooms, green pepper, cannelini beans, garlic and onions sauteed in olive oil, salt and pepper, and red pepper flakes. Kind of puttanesca-esque. Oh, and added some shredded parmesan. I mashed some of the beans to thicken the texture, the marinara was kind of watery. Anyhoo, pretty delish over whole wheat spirals and washed down with cheap chardonnay. Now I want some dark chocolate, but I do not has. Woe.

Tomorrow is my Friday, kind of. Yay. And friends are coming into town. Double yay.

For those not on FB, I picked up Emmett's tux for Prom today.

He looks very suave.

In this one as he's being fitted he looks a bit more Daniel Craig.

That is a very pretty bra, sj. Very useful with lots of outfits.

Emmett! Very handsome.

Yeah, Hec, he's cute. If I were sixteen, I'd put his photo on my mirror and hope we met at the mall this summer.
