I'd gladly do that for you, if I would have anything in those colors that is.

Good luck!

Should we start the gofundme for your bail?
And I wish I could FedEx you something but I don't know if you should rely on that.

lol - I read 'ball' as in event - but bail would be more judicious

it depends on how deeply purple embarrassment looks like ... albeit others might be green with envy

Hey NYers, are there any decent resale stores in Brooklyn like Lakewood's Deja New?

I don't know of any places like deja new here. Though I heard they have something like that in Monsey.
I wish I knew which direction to steer you!

If you have a macys card and coupons, and don't mind wearing a shell, there's a lot you can find there pretty inexpensively.

hadn't noticed there were more replies ... interestingly I tried on one of those dresses that macy's has - this one in eggplant & it's not really properly covered since the top is sheer

http://m.macys.com/shop/produc.....=Navy

so I am not going to spend monies - even their sales are near $80.00 - let alone what I consider an unreasonable amount ... I didn't do it for my own daughter's wedding and even if I regret that one - I will certainly not do it now

we won't talk about the dreaded lakewood - as I have no way to get there deja vu

thanx for trying

okay so went shopping with mama yesterday ...

what has happened to macy's - found the one on fulton street & it looked like it came right out of the 1970's when it was Abraham & Straus ... nothing updated ...

fine if you want a museum - but not so much if you're shopping for a dress

There's a Macy's in Kings Plaza as well as a Sears.

yeah mama went without me that day ... today she wanted to go to fulton street & so I chaperone

I'm better off going back to cleveland - shopping & people are so much easier
