I am having a minor panic attack right now because I have never in my life spent so much money on one item of clothing (panicpanicpanicpanic), but I have an incredible gift certificate to Shopbop and this dress is absolutely wonderful. Please note the pleating, the yellow underslip, the cute little vesty thing, and the wonderful looking crepe fabric. Wrong decision? Bad mistake? Perhaps $500 is a bit too much to spend on a dress, but guys. Lookit. And whatever--I can always return it?
