Dress Me!

[britbratjf]

I have a black tie optional fundraising event on April 9th. I have nothing remotely suitable to wear. I kind of want to try rent the runway but my body is so weird right now with the post baby pooch, saggy BFing boobs & extra 10lbs of baby weight that I have no idea what size to order & feel like I'd be throwing away $100+ dollars to rent a dress. So any other suggestions of where to look?!

A simple black cocktail dress always does the trick if you're in a bind. I found a great one at none other than Sears a few years all.... JCPenny near me had some nice dresses recently too

I'd go with rtr. I did a quick search for "black tie" and "bump friendly" (to account for the boobies) and found several nice dresses for under 100 bucks. They have a lot of user reviews to help figure out what size and you can rent a second dress (back up) for like 35 bucks.
Whatever you wear, I'm sure you'll look drop dead gorgeous and have a great time.

JCPenney is always my last resort store but I usually end up finding something I like there. Otherwise Nordstrom, Macy's, Carson Pirie Scott.
Carson's has their Goodwill sale and I've been getting a lot of coupons.
