I’ve been invited – okay I’m a plus one – to a wedding this coming Saturday and I really want to wear my matric dance dress, which just happens to be white. It’s an over-the-knee flowy little number with modest pearl details around the jewel neckline.
I have received some backlash from basically everyone I’ve told about my potential outfit for the wedding.
What’s the big deal?
I tend to be more apathetic than the average person, and that gets me into trouble; with words like “rude” and “selfish” being thrown my way on a daily basis and I’ve now developed a nonchalant response regarding these insults.
I should be able to wear the dress that I want. It’s not like the groom is going to accidentally start reciting the vows to me.
