"the color"

How easy was it to find one dress for five different women? well it was eaiser than it sounded until it got complicated. Four of the five bride's maids for Ann-Marie's wedding went with her to find a dress this past saturday. Within minutes... ok maybe not minutes but it didn't take long to find a dress style that we liked. Amazingly we found two styles that we all could wear. That's where the easy part ended. Neither of them came in the right color. On to the next store. A lot less organized but a lot more choices. After several hours of sorting, looking through, waiting, and trying on... well just Melissa did lots of trying on. A style and material was agreed upon. Now the big question, what colors did it come in? drum roll please... DUSK. There it was "the color". The right color. The perfect color. It's going to look georgous next to Ann-Marie's dress. All the painstaking searching and near famished conditions were worth it. The bride's maid dresses were bought. It only took three and a half hours. Ok and four months until we get them.
