The Perfect Birthday Party Dress...

So my FABULOUS husband has decided that I deserve a party. Why? Well I am going to be the big... the dreaded 3 0 !!! and on top of that... Well, I finally graduated from College!!! Whoo Hoo!

So the guestlist has been made, a very small group of my closest friends, and the evite has been sent (most have responded except a few... I won't mention any names but you know who you are!) and I have the perfect vision of what the house is going to look like. Lots of pink! I feel like a child again but who cares! It's so fun! I have been to the party store, I know exactly what I am going to buy. We have been to Costco and we know exactly what food we are going to serve... So now what?

All that is left is..... the dress......... easy right?

Ok Seriously, How hard can it be to find a 30th birthday party dress??? Right? WRONG!!! Either I am getting really old or my taste is just sooooo far off from the rest of the world because all the dresses are either too mom-ish (sorry moms...) or too slutty or just too funky... I mean seriously... who wears socks with a dress and heels?? So I finally find the perfect dress. I have searched a million websites, I have spent hours upon hours at the local malls and finally online at a store called Dillards, yes, a department store hmmm I never thought I could find a fabulous dress at a department store called Dillards but I did! YAY! I'm willing to buy it online and pay for shipping only because it has been a LOONG difficult journey. So I click on the color "Sangria" see why the dress is perfect? Sangria... yum! ... then the size... SERIOUSLY! 10?! That's all that you have? A size 10!!! Come on! I have agonized for days... (I hate to pay shipping for a dress that I have not tried on and if it doesn't fit then I have to pay for return shipping and then I am back to square one of no dress) So I have agnoized for days... buy it? or keep looking? I finally decide BUY IT ALREADY! And all they have is a size 10...

The search is back on for that perfect, fabulous birthday party dress... Any suggestions???
