Glee Fashion: Prom Edition

In Which I Lust After Rachel Berry's Prom Dress

While many people watch Glee for the music—and admittedly, sometimes I do—I watch for the fashion. I love to pick out all of the anthropologie sweaters of Emma Pillsbury's or dresses of Quinn's that currently hang in my closet. But mostly, I love to covet every single thing about Rachel Berry, even down to her horse sweaters and knee socks. 

It's like a fun game for me.

Insead of the game I could be playing: How does a teenager afford this lovely and enviable wardrobe full of many, many pea coats and Kate Spade dresses?

I play this game instead: How can I afford to get this lovely and enviable wardrobe full of many, many pea coats and Kate Spade dresses?

This season, I was excited to see what Rachel Berry was going to wear to the prom, because I knew, undoubtedly that I was going to love it...or I was going to hate it. 

Survey says: LOVE

I thought she looked stunning in her Mignon Layered Organza Strapless Sweetheart Mermaid Dress.

And now, of course, I have to have it. 

I just have to figure out how to explain to my husband that I need a $398 prom dress to work from my home office. Obviously.
