Last Saturday, I went to one of the most important nights of my life – my boyfriend of five years will be introducing me to his family. I prepared for it for quite a while, going to the mall a week before to look for that perfect black dress that I’ll be wearing on that crucial dinner date. I have already picked out the best shoes that would go well with the dress.
That afternoon, as I was preparing for the nerve-wracking evening coming, I was feeling a bit problematic.. I felt that my outfit needed something to boost it up more. Just as I was about to give up, I found an old gift from my mother, a brooch with loose diamonds in the middle. I thought it fit my dress perfectly! The dinner came. I felt great when they complemented me for how I looked, especially my brooch. I immediately felt comfortable with his family and now, I’m looking forward to our next dinner.
