An update from Friday...

We found a white dress! Bless you Nordstoms (store and online). Through the help of a wonderful lady at Nordstrom's in Charlotte, Miss Brooke was able to be fitted for a dress then it was ordered online and shipped overnight. (Funny thing now is that even though they were told sundresses and the like, they have to wear sweaters to cover their shoulders so they can wear their quill).

And she went ahead and ordered her winter semi-formal dress. The them is Winter Wonderland and the sorority suggested colors like white and blue and one other color which escapes me at the moment. She choose this following one. She wanted one in the blue family and a little grecian style to it. So this is what she picked:

first the back...


and the front....


Now I feel a little better.

Thanks Michelle and Joann!

Both of those dresses were bought online without her trying them on from Nordstom's. The white dress fit like a glove. My mom could not believe that she had not tried it on before buying. Due to her injury and being on crutches, she ended up wearing her Keds and white socks. The white dress would have worked perfectly as Winter Wonderland Semiformal, it is actually dressier than it looks in the picture. The blue dress is wonderful, only the straps need to be shortened. And makes her eyes even more blue!
