My 20th High School Reunion Part I: The Search for the Right Outfit

I know what you're thinking. "Shut the front door! There's no way she's been outta school for twenty years!"

Alas, it is true.

It is also true that I was seven when I graduated, which makes me all of twenty-seven now.

Okay … I might have made up that last part.

Maybe.

The truth is that I went to my reunion and I had a great time.

My great time started around 11 a.m with a text from my friend asking if I wanted to shop the mall for a cute top for her to wear to the reunion. I agreed to the top shop extravaganza, but also wanted to find a stunning, clearance rack, $9.99 or less prom dress for myself to wear to the reunion.

Ideally I wanted to wear my own prom dress, but that ain't happening, folks. It shrunk while being boxed up in my basement. It's the darndest thing.

I had a back up plan of khaki capris and a turquoise shirt if needed. I am nothing if not practical in my apparel.

Pin It Now!
