Dress disaster

So I have this perfect go-to dress for weddings, black with this cute kimono sash.  Great length, can wear a normal bra, and has a v in front so I can feed Keane without having to retreat to a bathroom and haul my whole outfit over my head.

And it has disappeared.

It is not to be found in any of our closets, nor in Jordi's parent's house, where we store a lot of our clothing during the off season.

Keane and I are heading to Denver next week for a wedding and I was really counting on this dress to be my outfit of choice...seeing as this was not to be, however, the only other alternative was to go shopping.  Despite trips to three different shopping malls, I did not find one single item that fit the bill.  I managed to purchase something at a Mango store, but upon trying it on at home, I found the length far too short to be appropriate for a family wedding, and this problem was only compounded when I added heels to the ensemble.  Much more appropriate for working the pole, if you know what I mean.

So I reached out to a few teachers at school, and have managed to find a few suitable options for  next week, thank goodness.

With a nice pair of Spanx, I might just manage to look respectable...even while whipping the gals out so that Keane can have his evening meal (though it might actually be his breakfast since I plan to try to keep him on Barcelona time while we are away, since it is just four short days...we'll see how that turns out!).

  1. At least you've found an alternative. That's always good!

    I see you're reading Game of Thrones? Good stuff. It's an excellent series. Have you watched the tv version as well?
