In that lovely box from J.Crew was a dress. Being super excited, I ripped it open and tried on the dress…
Well …the dress looked strikingly similar on me to Lucy’s Jacques Marcel dress. (For those of you who need to brush up on your “I Love Lucy” episodes, it is where she goes to Paris and buys a “designer” dress that is made out of a potato sack.)
I’d have no complaints if I paid the going rate for a sack of potatoes, but I can assure you that this fine sack of potatoes cost me way more then that. I had to go to the mall, return the dress and start from square one. UGH. GREAT.
I eventually did find another dress at Nordstrom’s online, but of course they didn’t have it in the store.
In fact they didn’t have it anywhere on the east coast!
So my little dress is still somewhere out in the midwest hopefully on it’s way to Bethesda soon.
I also found shoes the same day, and they didn’t have in my size either,
but the great news is that they came in the mail today! woohoo. Check out these puppies.
And just in case you were wondering… $3.99 for a sack of potatoes.
