#2: NORDSTROM DRESS AND JACKET

This dress was worn for one event—my daughter's wedding. (I paid about $175 for it, new.) I changed after the ceremony/photos, so it was only worn for a very short time.

It is in perfect condition.

I typically wear a size 10; Nordstrom advised to size down, so I bought an 8.

It was professionally tailored: shoulder pads removed, tiny tuck at neckline, lengthened about 1/2".

You are welcome to try it on and then decide if you want it.
asking price: $17.50
