Her "Vintage" Prom Dress

Ahh.. I am so excited for this post!  A couple months ago, I came across my senior prom photos and was instantly reminded that the dress I wore was by far one of my favorite dresses I've ever owned!  A few weeks later, Alejandro's little sister was looking for a prom dress!! :)  Well, to make a long story short... she fell in love with the dress and ended up wearing it last weekend to her Prom!  And... I think it's safe to say - she rocked it!  So beautiful on her!!!  See Mom... there was a reason I've been making you hold onto a dress that is a few sizes too small for me.... for 11 years! :) :)

This dress will always be one of my favs because it was my first purchase ever from Saks Fifth Avenue... I ordered it the week before prom via phone (that's before online shopping became huge)!! It came in from California a few days before the dance and was just perfect! :)  ...A teenage girl in Ohio with a dress from California -- I have to admit, I thought I was pretty cool! haha, jk (kind of)! xxoo.

Oh don't lie, you knew you were very cool! And that dress is amazing and is a lot similar to what I wore because I obviously wanted to look like Cinderella. No joke, that was my motivation for finding a sparkly blue dress. Unfortunately my mom got rid of all my dresses without my permission!

Adorable story! See, it's true, everything old is new again! Side note, I really like the girl in the front row's yellow dress - it's still right on trend!

First of all has it really been 11 years! I think I have moved that dress at least 4 times I am so glad she was able to wear it. She looked absolute beautiful just as you did when you wore it.

Boy does this bring back memories...
