Well my mom's making me wear my grad dress to this wedding I'm going to but i don't know..i never want to wear my graduation dress ever again or anywhere because somethng embarassing happened and wearing it and seeing it reminds me and haunts me of it.
I can't get a new one because it's wasting money and the weddings is in three days.
I know that there's no way to get out of it but can someone just say something to make the situation better? Im a sucker for sweet talk
peebles7 answered Thursday August 30 2007, 9:42 am: Well in my opinion, you HAVE to wear this dress to get closure on that other incident. You can't let past memories ruin the future, and this is a perfect oppurtunity to show yourself that you've grown up and this dress has the potential to make you beautiful instead of embarrassed. IT's like a clean slate, if you can get through the wedding in this dress, you will no longer think of the dress as related to embarrassment, instead you will think of the wedding, and happy memories [ peebles7's advice column | Ask peebles7 A Question ]

Also could you add some accessories that will change its look slightly? Try wearing a pashmina over it or another pretty shawl, or add a brooch or some flowers. If you had the skills, could you alter it in some way? Also, if the people who made you embarrassed are not going to the wedding then you don't need to think about them. Best of all hold your head up and smile, because if you act happy you will feel happy. Enjoy the wedding. [ Elcee's advice column | Ask Elcee A Question ]
