bridesmaid dress party!

oh dear, i have the best pictures from my party this weekend, and it's THURSDAY and i'm just now getting around to posting them, and my mom was in town yesterday and we went to the hillwood museum and restaurant eve and BOTH of us forgot to bring cameras to BOTH PLACES and it's tmi thursday and i am unprepared and work is very busy and gaaaaaaah. so to cumulatively a) sum up, b) show you embarassing pictures, as i always like to do, and c) sorta-kinda count this as tmi thursday, please to be enjoying some pictures from the party i threw last weekend.

it was a bridesmaid dress party. some of you may recall i did this two years ago as well. the idea is that when you're a bridesmaid, you have to buy a very shiny satin dress that you have basically no other use for again, which then sits in your closet for all eternity. or until you give it to goodwill. unless you know me! in which case you're lucky enough to put that dress back on and parade drunkenly around downtown while wearing it.

as you can see, we took things up a notch with the addition of sparkly, plastic, child-sized tiaras this year. a little girl on the metro asked if we were in a beauty pageant. hee.

the shoulder looks good dressed up, don't you think?

just like last time, rumors remains an excellent place to go dancing while dressed in ludicrous outfits. fyi. and next year, the invite is extended to all my blogging ladies as well. i'd best see some bloggery faces in satin this time next year :-)
