Put the dress down and walk away...

Do you know when being on a budget makes me sad? When I randomly find a vintage 1960's gold dress that fits like a glove and I have to walk away. *sigh* Oh, and did I mention I have a gala coming up so I'd actually have a place to wear it? *double sigh*



I've had to walk away from purchases before, but this one broke my heart.

PS. how much does this crappy blackberry photo make me miss my camera? Soooo so much.

  5. You have the willpower of a thousand women.

    Holy cow. You're my hero for saying no.

    Because THAT is gorgeous on you. Ugh.

    Like Collette said, there's a reason for everything so maybe you'll find a dress that's even MORE perfect for your gala!
