If you are a woman, you are familiar with the feeling of seeing a dress in a store and before you even slip it off the hanger, you know that you were made for each other. Honestly, it has only happened twice for me and one of those times was yesterday. It was back in the sales racks (the only place I shop) of Gap and when I held it up, it was love at first sight. Slipping it on, I knew it would be very, very hard to leave without buying this strapless, ruffled beauty. You know how it is: there really is not an occasion in sight where you would ever need such a dress, but you think, "This dress would be perfect for that party I will be invited to, or that wedding I will be going to, or that date I will (someday) be going on, or when jcrew finally calls me and wants me to model for them, etc... " To top it off, I had a gift card!! So, even though I have absolutely no reason (right now, but you never know when jcrew might call...) to buy a strapless dress with ruffles all over it, I walked out of that store as the proud owner of a GREAT dress! This is just one of the many things that make me tick.
