Just a quick hello on this lovely Sunday afternoon - I hope you are enjoying your weekend!  I wore this outfit for a double dinner date last night, and I can't help but share the story behind this "clearance dress."  I was shopping at Banana Republic last weekend with my boyfriend, and while he was purchasing some new dress shirts I went to peruse the women's side.  I found this dress for $23.97 on the clearance rack, saw that it was a size 00 and almost put it back (I'm usually a size 2 or small, so this should have been way too small).  However, I held it up and it looked about right...so I went to try it on and it fit perfectly!  I think the size is mismarked, but I'm not complaining because I got a fantastic deal and I love getting a good deal!  =)
