I tried searching other shops at the mall afew days ago for a replacement for my LBD candidate that was longer. Nothing caught my eye whatsoever, not even to try on!

So I took mine to an alterations place yesterday, but they didn't seem very enthused about the idea of the hem, plus they are closing until January 15th. Today I tried a different place, and they were much happier to do it and thought it will look good. I should get it Jan 6th (they close for holidays as well). Fingers crossed!
