Fixer-Uper

You know spring is officially here for me when I start eyeing cute flowy dresses. I have been wanting a dress with a hem that drapes down further in the back than the front for awhile now and lucky for me this one was waiting for me at Ross. I’m guessing its the inner princess in me that likes the idea of being able to wear a semi train causally. An added plus of cuteness are the cut outs in the sleeves.  Sort of makes me feel like I should be vacationing in Greece or something.

I checked the price tag and it was right up my ally!

As long as it fit I was ready to give this dress a nice home inside my closet. Here’s where I ran into a snag.

One of the sleeves was torn. I knew it would only take a simple stitch or two and the dress would be back to new. However I’m never one to pass up the chance to slice some change off the price.  Ross gives 10% off items that are stained or have small tears but this was a big rip so I asked what percentage they could take off.  Ask and ye shall receive! I got an additional 20% off so the grand total came to about $7.50!

Can’t wait to sport this dress with the Fergie Pumps I got a while ago!
