Prom Shoes.

Before:
(please excuse my room.. it's clean now:)
After:
Dress: thrifted $6, Skirt(worn under dress): thrifted $3, Tights: forever 21 $3.80, Shoes: Macy's

See those cute shoes up there?
I wore those babies to my Senior Prom.
Wanna see my dress?
Good; because I want to show you ;)
I felt beautiful that night.
My dress was perfect.
But I actually had the worst prom experience ever.
I cried at prom people, three times actually...
I just had a horrible date and my group left after being at prom for 30 minutes.
I was home by midnight. On prom night. The night that every girl dreams of and plans her whole high school career. Sitting on my couch. Like a big loser.
But wanna hear the sweetest thing ever?
My dad stayed up until 2am and watched Juno with me.
Love this guy.
He wears socks and sandals, which I absolutely HATE.
But I let it slide, just because I love him that much.

There's a lot more to it, but I'll spare you the story.

    Your sewing skills are just... wow, I am so amazed! You did such a great job refashioning it!

    And omg, I had the worst prom night, too. :'( But I loved my dress! My cousin made it and I was totally in love with it (and my shoes, haha). :) So yay for that! And your dad is super sweet. :)

    Hey! My name is mad, and I just spent the last hour looking at your blog. It's so cute!!! Your hair is similar to mine and I am definitely trying your tutorial tomorrow for work. Also, I go to rexburg too! I'm on fall spring and love it there.

    And now that I have completely freaked you out, your dress is beautiful!
