Anyway, I love traditional "women's dances." I've tried flamenco and belly-dancing too.

Of course, I'm short on sleep. Still, so much going on there, including finding out that my BFF couldn't really have been my BFF after all. Sniff. Well, this was years and years ago. <br /><br />The dress wasn't for the wedding service but for the reception. (I wore something else for the service.) The dress fell to my shapely ankles. I don't have as much as a photo of me in that dress, can you believe it? The only photos that show my sculpted form involve me having my face punched in the ring. The group photo afterwards features my massive adrenaline-fuelled grin and my swollen schnozz. Oh the humanity.

That sucks....Sorry about your friends' divorce. That sucks.<br /><br />It's so awesome that you wore that to their wedding though, because it sounds like a proper formal dress, and I've noticed people do not tend to wear those to weddings much anymore. Is the dress long? Are long dresses allowed at weddings or are they just for the bridal party?<br /><br />JuliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
