Slim Pickings

My name is Ramona and the title of this post is a lie. Before we get our panties in a twist let me explain. 

We celebrated my beautiful sister’s bachelorette on Saturday. In order for her to stand out like the princess she is, all the girls were asked to wear a little black dress (LBD). 

I have mentioned it before and I will say it again. LBDs are a girl’s best friend. I think they are timeless. Depending on the shoes and accessories, you can re-wear a dress several times without anyone noticing. 

I have several black dresses but I narrowed it down to my top three choices for the big night. I knew that I would wear my satin pink heels with the dress I chose. Slim pickings, but I managed. 

Each of the dresses I chose were selected because of their unique details. 

Here were the top three choices: 

Option A 

 Peplum and Lace: Forever XXI

 Option B

 Lycra Stretch: 5 years old - Random Store from New West 

Option C

 Classic Parassuco: Winners

The Shoes 

Spring 

The Winner: Option B

This dress won mainly because the material is perfect for sucking me in. I also liked the flirty one shoulder detail. I decided to pair my lipstick and accessories to the colour of the night... pink! 

Stay tuned for pics of the gorgeous Bride to Be and all the lovely ladies with their LBDs - that's on the blog tomorrow. 

Unexpected Surprises

I am so giddy with excitement!

I walked into a random one off Korean store at Plaza 88 / New West Station as I was looking for a cover for my phone. To my surprise, the store was a little jewel, full of imported goodies.

I found this FABULOUS dress. It was such a ridiculously good deal that I feel embarrased to even tell you the price - no I don't. They didn't have a change room so I bought it on a whim - I mean it was ONLY $10.00. The material and details are actually pretty amazing.

Score one for the good guys!

PS. I also found a cell phone cover. But who cares about that right?
