Wow, Laura -- coming from The Gorgeous Dress Siren herself, now I am REALLY excited about getting this dress! Yeah, sometimes it's "you snooze, you lose" and other times it's "good things come to those who wait." Thanks again to Neeva for sharing the info.
Laura, I give you so much credit for holding to your SYC pledge, because I know just how hard it is. I have been trying to spend as little money as possible for financial reasons, but after purging my closet of pre-YLF stuff, I knew I couldn't commit to only SYC. If it's any consolation, I was dying a few months back when you posted your NAS haul: I was only able to get Shimera underwear this year because I had two big college tuition payments due at that time. I feel your pain and in all honesty I should not have spent even this money on the dress. Hopefully after your SYC challenge, this dress will still be available for you and you will be rewarded by getting it at an even more reduced price.
Stay strong.
