Ready for award dinner

 I tried on several dresses at Lord and Taylor and found one I liked, but it was expensive and very long, so would have cost even more to be shortened.  Then I went to Macy's and got this one for under $30.

I got this tiara online, to put in my (planned) updo for a little "frosting"!

And the all-important shoes (cost much more than the dress!), but pretty comfortable - I walked around the store to be sure.
