Yep, so, no pictures for days 26-30. I know, it's terrible. Life caught up with me, and the photos just didn't happen. I swear I wore my dress, and I have witnesses.
I am sad to say though, that I'm not sure the dress is wearable after this month. The coming-apart-seam has, well, come apart. All the washing has shrunk it slightly, so the zipper's wonky. And the cotton is not as soft as it once was, and it starting to pill. I'm a little sad that it seems, literally, worn out. If you consider that I probably would have worn it on average, maybe once every other month, I've stuffed 3-5 years worth of wear into one month.
It also means that as I add clothes to my wardrobe (in moderation), I'll be looking for well constructed stuff that won't fall apart soon. That means I'll probably have to pay more up front, which means I'll need to be a more conscience shopper. Its a win win for me, I think, against the culture of stuff.
