Re: where did..

It's stuffed in a big white trash bag and sitting in our car trunk. I actually thought I lost my dress the other day when I couldn't find it and forgot where I put it. LOL, oops.

Haven't found a place to bring it to yet -- I might go to the local dry cleaners, I think it averages to about $200

we had to pin my bustle up with safety pins.
