Good morning girls!
CJ, I never heard of a prom gift with the exception of the boy giving the girl a corsage or something like that. For graduation we always give cash. It is something that never goes out of style and suits the pickiest graduate.
No worries about missing the "sunburn" and now I am not sure it was that. I think it was just one my weird sun reactions (PMLE, sun allergies, rashes of all sorts yada yada yada) manifesting in a different way because it was gone by the next day. So weird. But I am never going outside without sunblock on my face if I am outside for more than a minute.
Tacori how about a squarish toe and a blocky low heel like this. Seems this might be comfortable compared to the classic heel.
In nude but this was the only photo I could find with them on the feet. I think this type of shoe in beige/nude would look nice with your dress and looks more comfortable than the typical heels.
Or I love the look of something like these with your dress.
Though if you are looking for a sandal these won't work.
2 different sandal options that still look comfortable. Hope I am not being a pain here just trying to help. I know what it is like to be shopping and not liking much of anything in the stores! For comfort when I wore sandals I always went with Easy Spirit and Naturalizer. 2 old lady brands haha so I am not really on the pulse of style with shoes unless they are boots or ballet flats my 2 mainstays. Hope you find something suitable soon.
Marcy me too. I don't want to spend lots of money on a dress I might not wear or only wear once. You wouldn't believe how many things I have in my wardrobe that I never wore. No thanks. We just finished the season finale of Big Little Lies last night. You are a naughty girl and that is all I will say about that LOL.
I hope Marty gets lots of clients soon and makes his business a huge success.
Thanks for asking about my "sunburn" and now I think it wasn't that but a weird sun reaction that didn't manifest till a few hours after we were outside and didn't last more than the night. Weird but I am very very thankful and have learned my lesson. Sorry about your work craziness and I feel ya. I am so not looking forward to my workweek starting today. Fingers crossed for all of us that work goes OK this week.
Junie thanks for your updates and your good wishes re my silly problems and glad you are having a good week. And I know it is stressful dealing with all the estate business but you are right and one day it will be over. So one day at a time honey. I know it is hard though. As for your kids my fingers and toes and everything is crossed for them and they are super lucky to have you and E as their parents. (((Hugs))).
Scandi hope you are feeling better and thinking of you. Lovely photo.
Have a good day girls!

Thank you for weighing in with your thoughts re which dress I should choose. I hear what you are saying and know logically you are right. I might not know which dress till the last minute. LOL poor Greg because he has to alter all my potential choices if I don't decide for sure till that day. 
. Hugs all around and see you later.
. We're not trying to help them achieve independence. Plus they don't give you the side-eye or explain condescendingly that you're too old to 'understand fourth wave feminism'. Ahem. How's the baby doing? When will he be allowed to go home? Everyone must be very anxious for that. And bunions - ugh. I had hereditary ones on both feet (grandmother and all her sisters had them, skipped my mother) and finally had to cave in and have them done-- they didn't hurt but they were creating a real issue with terrible pain under my second toes because my gait was off. They did keyhole, so I don't have scars, and I'm thrilled that I did it, but the recovery was... tedious. I hope the estate issues are resolving.
My favorite is the emerald cluster of the 2 but they are both so pretty and romantic. But if I were to keep just one I choose the emerald ring.
If I had to pick, I like the emerald/diamond ring on your hand, it looks good with your skin tones and it has great finger coverage too, right?
I like ALL the dresses you've posted, honestly. There isn't one of them you don't/wouldn't look beautiful in. I'm sorry to read about the work situation above. I'm surprised they don't have a meltdown in the waiting room. It must be really hard to try to give them a quality exam/refraction/treatment plan if they are upset, hungry/thirsty by the time they see you.
