Tonight Hollace went to her first formal dance at school. Acquiring a dress proved to be a bit of a challenge. Before I even knew there was a dance and she wanted to go, she already found a dress at kohls.com that she liked. It was pretty so we went to Kohls to look at it. I think they only had one dress and this wasn’t it. I soon realized it was an online exclusive so I go to order it. Because regular shipping would mean the dress would get here until after the dance I was ready to spring $20 for priority shipping. Only for some reason the site wouldn’t let me do it. I call them and they try, no luck. I go ahead and order it with standard shipping and go look for plan B.<\/p>\n

I found a dress sort of similar at Sears.com and order it. Then we hit the stores to try and find a dress there as well as a shaw and shoes. We were successful with the extras but there wasn’t even a close contender for dress at all.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday the Sears.com dress comes. Hollace tries it on over her clothes and freaks out when she gets stuck. She keeps declaring she hates dresses, she hates dresses.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The next night she tries again with out the extra clothes. She keeps the dress on for most of the night liking the feeling of fancy.<\/p>\n

The next night I buy some black tights and she tries it all on again and wears it most of the night.<\/p>\n

Tonight is the dance and guess what comes? Yes the Kohls dress, the original one gets here. Hollace puts it on and it is a hit.<\/p>\n

We go and pick up her friend Marabell who needs a ride and I drop them off. All in and all she had fun even though her feet hurt from the heels.<\/p>\n
