A few years ago, I bought this long black dress with long sleeves. When my mother saw it, she went berserk. She yelled at me for about ten minutes, saying it was too old-lady-ish for me, and then insisted I get rid of it.
On another note, I have these two evening dresses. They're both sleeveless. One has a halter top with a v-neck. The other has spaghetti straps. They both look good on me. But I always feel uncomfortable wearing them because they're sleeveless. Now some of you might be thinking "Well Lisa, why don't you just get an evening dress with sleeves?" And the answer is, there are none!
