The search is finally over---we found the perfect vest and suit pant combo for Adam to don on our wedding day, and we couldn't be any more stoked about it.
{"stoked" adj.- to be "stoked;" to be completely and intensely enthusiastic, exhilirated, or excited about something.}
So, I must admit--I was a bit discouraged after our fruitless trip to all the hoity-toity men's clothing stores at Northshore Mall and wondered how / when on earth we would find something we both liked and could afford. I still couldn't believe that my dress-hunt was next to effortless and we were struggling to find gray vests and matching suit pants.
But I wasn't about to admit defeat. No-sirree! So I scoured the world wide web, knowing that most stores don't stock all that their websites have to offer and hoping for the men's suits gods to smile down on me as I searched for all the required requisites: perfect shade of gray; a vest that fell on the middle of the vest spectrum (which is orange life vest on one end and super-gay mesh vest with zippers on the other) and I came across this fabulous combo on Express.com. Hallelujah! I showed Adam, he gave the nod of approval, and I yelped a celebratory "Yay!"
We went to Express in the Fox Run Mall yesterday on our way up to Chocorua (where we were scheduled to crash a Jewish-Catholic wedding in order to observe how awesome our venue looks when "in action" and also taste the fabulous dishes that will be served for dinner at our reception), in order to see how well the men's suit pants fit my fiancé's skinny arse. ;o) He popped out of the dressing room wearing the gray striped pants and a white button up shirt (of course, the store didn't have the vests in stock), and I said aloud with the dressing room attendant standing there, "Ooh, Fiend! Those pants look good on you! I'D do ya...." ;o) Ha!
So Express it is---yay! Placed the online order for the "Striped Corded Cotton Producer Suit Pant" and the "Striped 5-button Corded Cotton Suit Vest" and got a sweet $30.00 discount, thanks to an online coupon promo code. Lookin' forward to getting Adam's handsome garb in the mail in 5 - 7 days and getting a private fashion show.... hehe ;o)
