Okay fashionistas and whatnot...I need help. Sooo on Dec. 6 I'm going to this big work, Christmas party thing and our group is going all in white...and I need a dress. I went to the big-ass mall out here (Metrotown) and found NOTHING. Blah. I'm gonna go downtown soon but if that fails, I'm thinking online. But, since its not that far off, I need somewhere within Canada or the US so it'll get here on time...
Website/store or dress suggestions? HELP. The only one I found online I like so far is this one from BCBG http://www.bcbg.com/product/index.jsp?prod...rentPage=family A bit outta my price range. =p But oh well. But yeh. HELP.

I checked on Delias and these are more ivory than white, but they're also super cheap (less than $50):

Hey guys, thanks for all the help and I promise I didn't disregard your suggestions, I actually quite liked a lot of them...but that godamn BCBG dress hooked me and I got it off eBay for like...$100 cheaper.
 Woohoo! Just got it in and yeah I'll take a pic with it because I need suggestions on shoes from my shoe collection. =p Cause I can't afford to spend more money on this night haha.... Love you guys.

OMG the dress looks so good on you!
Personally I like the peeptoes, but I'm partial to peeptoe pumps over any other kind of heel, so take that with a grain of salt. =p |

Peeptoes, definitely. OMG, red shoes would be gorgeous with it, something different from basic black.

they sort of balance it out. you have all that skin showing, why show your toes?

Not in the right colour...  I have gold ones, thats it and they just don't go. Bah I want new shoes so bad, but soo broke. But thanks guys! More opinions please!  Cause yeah those were the only shoes that really went with this dress...but you can't really see in that pic, but those peeptoes have red underneath.

Yeah peeptoes > the first pointy ones, but closed toe and rounded > peeptoes. But since you don't have the right ones, peeptoes it is!
Ehh, you're short, you can get away with showing more skin than the average girl. And what's a couple of toes? ;) |

Lol I wish but hey the bottoms of the peeptoes are red... so thats halfway there. =p I'll look around and if I find cheap ones maybe but I doubt it. You guys seriously don't understand how broke I am...should not have bought this dress but I couldn't help it. Hahaha

That dress looks so good on you, though. I like the peeptoe shoes better, too.

I'm also partial to the peeptoes - they look super cute! You could always doe white and plain french tips on your toes
Also I've always thought peeptoes are more visually slimming on the legs than closed-toed pointy shoes - I'm not sure why. It happens to me.Damn, that dress is HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. Especially on you, Steph!

Yes. They're pretty much knock-off's of these Christian Louboutins.

I hate how I love your shoes.

Unfortunately, not really. Well...its messed up. One fits perfect, the other one hurts. But they're the same size. But fit different. I don't know. Whatever, I sacrifice my feet for pretty shoes all the time so whatever. =p Lol |

Haha yea I have some shoes that I cannot wear for a long time but I do anyways, but fortunately I bought some that are comfortable... which I end up wearing everyday lol. Actually, my right foot is slightly bigger than my left. It's a fact, since all the shoes I've tried on have felt tighter on my right when compared to my left! ^^;; But it's not a big difference though.
