The Perfect Dress

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 “It’s going to be at the beach house”, she said.

I told her, I’d mark my calendar. I couldn’t miss her 65th wedding anniversary.

“Now, the invitation is in the mail with all the details and no gifts.”

“What is the dress attire?”

“Casual elegant,” she muttered, as she hung up.

I could tell she was excited and in planning heaven. She loved hosting parties and entertaining.

What luck, I had just picked up a beautifully elegant Vera Wang red silk dress.

I remembered browsing through the dresses and suddenly, it was in my hand.

Oh, now, shoe shopping.

    That story defines the reasons why I shop… there’ll always be an occasion. Nicely done.

    • Unfortunately, I misread the challenge. It was supposed to be a 100 word chellenge with those words but in a humorous venue. That one is perfect for you …
      Oh well …. At least, I have the start for another story. ~~~~ : – )
      Thanks, Lorna ….
