We’re going to a big family wedding the end of April. As it happened
it’s another gay wedding. My cousin’s son and his boyfriend are ready to tie
the knot. But unlike LJ and Collin’s wedding which was basically a wonderful
party in a bar, this wedding is going to be the wedding of the season with a large
rehearsal dinner, late afternoon wedding, dinner, dancing and an open bar.
If you’ve read here long you should know – I don’t do fancy.
I’ve worn one dress since August of 2003. I didn’t like it. Dresses also
require shoes – other than flip flops or tennis shoes. I don't like shoes. They hurt my feet and if they have any heel I'd probably kill myself. So I’ve been worrying
about what to wear to this upcoming wedding. Monday I headed out in search of a wedding outfit –
pants with a pretty blouse.
Then Cassie decided to stick her nose into my business. As I
was looking for some nice pants, she basically told me that ‘women of our age’
needed a dress or two. But I don’t like dresses I explained in my head. She gave me a look and said no
more.
I ended up with two dresses and two pair of shoes.
Cassie has gotten me half way through her tenth book, but she
is going to have to stick to telling me stories and stay out of my wardrobe.
Hahaha PK...now, if only Tom would meddle a bit more with Tom. ;) Enjoy your new dresses and shoes. Oh and I would suggest, breaking those shoes in well before you have to wear them. :)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings...Cat
It would be great if Tom would get into Nicks head - a tiny bit anyway. Shoes - I hate them.
DeleteOh that is pure gold PK. Good on Cassie for meddling and telling you to buy dresses and shoes. I'm sure you will look wonderful. Enjoy the wedding!

It's a pretty dress, but I'm afraid I'll just look uncomfortable.
DeleteI had never seen my best friend wearing a dress in all the 22 years I've known her, until her son got married recently. She looked fabulous and was showered with compliments. I'm sure it will be the same for you. You'll probably have Cassie on your shoulder saying "I told you so."

She seems smug with me just having bought all that stuff.
DeleteHi Pk, I love love love dresses. Wish I had been there to egg you on. I have two pairs of trousers and a couple of skirts. The rest of my wardrobe is filled with dresses. You will look super I am sure, just enjoy the glamorous day
ReplyDeletelove Jan, xx
Wow, my wardrobe is ONLY pants and shorts. I don't own a skirt and with my purchases Monday I now have exactly 3 dresses.
DeleteI'm like you, don't like dresses and don't wear them very often. Skirts, I have a few but I'm happiest in Jeans. You will look fabulous. Enjoy the wedding and I hope you share a little about it.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Ronnie

Oh I'll tell you all about it since I don't type with my feet. If I did it would probably be months.
DeleteLoL PK, I love that Cassie is meddling and agree with Cat, you need Tom to meddle. I imagine with Cassie being involved the dresses are fabulous and that you will look gorgeous.Hope you do enjoy wearing them.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who I never saw in a skirt, let alone a dress until her wedding day and I haven't seen her in either since. She was originally going to wear a pant suit for her wedding.

She has started popping into my life a little. At school when my boss drove me nuts, I would sometimes channel her when I had to talk to him.
DeletePlease give dear Cassie a hug for me. I would love to have been there with you both, my friend, since I have never had the experience of split personality shopping.
ReplyDeleteBesides dresses have their advantages. Think how often Tom spanks by simply flipping up Cassie's skirt.
Love and Smiles From Ella
I'll tell her hey for you. Hadn't thought about that particular advantage.
DeletePK,
ReplyDeleteWhen fact collides with fiction.......... Hooray for Cassie! She really does live and I am sure you will look beautiful. Nick will also love it as she will have better access.
Meredith
She lives all right! Maybe Cassie will go to the wedding with him and I won't have to!
DeleteI can't wait to see what dresses Cassie picked for you! I am sure you will look beautiful! :-) Hugs
ReplyDeleteIf I'm getting all dressed up, we'll definitely take pictures! I'll try to get one I can put here.
DeleteROFLMAO For crying out loud!! I think Cassie has shown up in my head too since offspring #3 is about to wed ... a dress it is... and I love my shoes however after two broken hips and a broken arm over the past three years I hope this is NOT a recipe for disaster for BOTH of us. Send me pictures!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL! If I were you I'd get a beautiful dress and then go barefoot.
DeleteI know I left a comment yesterday - something to the effect that we want pictures - headless shots, of course.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I'll definitely look better that way!
DeleteHave you tried Easy Spirit shoes? I find them quite comfortable and they have some nice flats.
