Bebe vs. Prada

bebe

Walking back from lunch the other day, I caught sight of a cool-looking dress inside a Bebe store. And while Bebe is certainly not my cup of tea most of the time, I was curious enough to pop in. And I was so glad that I did, because it was love at first sight! Perhaps not the most wedding-appropriate dress I could find, but the Prada resemblance, plus the leather factor sold me on this one. After polling my co-workers on “appropriate vs. not so much”, I got mostly “sure, go ahead-s” from the guys, and I could hardly wait till the end of the workday to run back to the store and try it on! But when I finally did get the faux leather creation on, I realized that the length of the dress really did not leave much to imagination. And while I did think that I could pull off the fabric and the metal adornments at the upcoming nuptials, the length of the dress did ruin it for me. And here I thought that I had it in the bag! I even spotted Carey Mulligan wearing the same Prada dress to the premiere of An Education. If only the Bebe dress had the same perfect length! Damn…So the search continues. Only 2 days to go.
