The younger version of

me would have been all over

this, ordering

several garments and waiting with eager anticipation for them to arrive. Now, I know better. I once ordered an awesome (or so I thought) red dress from a discount

catalog. The dress was like $10, so I was thrilled and couldn't wait to put it on for date night. It came in the mail and when I tried it on, to say I was disappointed was the understatement of the year. Because it was so cheaply made, the fit was bad. It was just … wrong. In every way. The hem wasn't quite even and the dress just kind of clung to my curves in a

way that wasn't quite right. I paired it up with a cute bolero jacket and tried to make it work anyway. And after just one washing, you can guess what happened. Yup, it started falling apart; literally unraveling the next time I had it on. That was when I learned the difference between cheap and inexpensive. I also learned about keeping an emergency outfit around because when your dress is literally unraveling while you are still in it, you need a back-up plan pretty quick.
