For Christmas, I've decide my present to my sister will be her grad dress. Now, I went to Fabricland (I'm Canadian) and picked out some satin and some lace to overlay.
They were having a sale, so the satin cost like 8 bucks for a couple yards, and to my surprise, the freakin' lace was 30 bucks. . .half price! I misread the sign! I was super shocked. I mean, it's still a pretty cheap grad dress altogether (better than paying $100+ for the same thing), but I've just never spent that much on 2 yards of anything before.
I guess the moral of the story is: always double check the prices when you're on a budget. I don't know what she would've done if I'd said "I can't buy that, sorry". I'm just too passive, methinks.
I will try to get a picture of her in the dress in a few weeks.
