Wow.
I am one lucky girl.
Not every girl could pull of such a great shade of coral.
Not every girl could rock those puffy sleeves, drop waist, and bow.
The bangs.
The white hose.
The white flats that I am sure came from my mom’s closet.
Not every girl has a step-sister who had such an awesome prom dress. I am so lucky that I had the opportunity to borrow it. That is generosity at it’s finest.: allowing a family member to wear a dress that will surely be the subject of laugher in the future. That way you aren’t the only one with embarrassing pictures. Cindi, I truly hope that you have this dress in a closet somewhere. Do you think this will every come back into style?

**Picture from Kaleidoscope, May 14, 1994. Exactly 15 months after I donned this dress, I went on my first date with Derek. If only I had known that I would soon meet the man I would marry. I would have held onto this beauty and dazzled Derek for sure!**
