My dress is better than your dress, Emily.

Emily's post on wedding dresses opened a discussion on this whole prodigal, yet kind-of-fun tradition. Which of course got me looking online at dresses. I was shocked at how beautifully expensive these things are. Emily's dress is gorgeous. Unbelievably gorgeous.

But I found something better...



Marked down from $6000 to $500, this dress is a dream. I challenge you to find something better.

I apologize to the poor woman in this picture I stole from the internet, more specifically a used dress website. I am guessing from the aesthetic quality of the dress her marriage ended horribly. She got everything though. The children are bitter about their situation but they don't mind getting a plethora of presents each Christmas to compensate for the past.
