You are excited to circle all those dates on your social calendar and also to go shopping again for all those party and elegant evening dresses to flaunt yourself and to have those who you share cubicles at work or work in that same department go oooh-ahh when they see you at the party.
Isn't that a nice change to be like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman once in a while; living all those glamourous dreams and luxurious fantasies instead of being Ugly Betty at work; all hidden behind that thick stacks of paper in front of you?
Yeah, that once in a year to make that impression and then it's stuck for the following year with those whispers when you walk by, "Hey, she's HOT"
Snap out of your dream; as you run through the fabric or pieces of clothing hanging in your cupboard and nothing looks good enough for you (or so you think, so that you can have a good excuse to go shopping!)
Well, if you are looking to update your wardrobe which is always a welcome anyway, there are a few pieces that you can probably consider for your evening wear or that fun party that you plan with your friends.
I have done a quick spy on the following brands and their cute and attractive dresses in store which you can splurge on for that much-anticipated event =)
Store: Forever 21
Prices range: USD22-24 (MYR79-159)
