How about some for 25 bucks? That's not bad...

Clover's b-day is the 29th and you are sooo sweet!

Now for the tights. I'm loving the plaid too btw! What color is the dress and what color tights do you want?

Here are some options:
- these $28 free people ones are my favorite.
- UO has these for $14 in two colors.
- these are only $8.

Good luck! Can't wait to see what you come up with :D

I'll be on the look-out for some plaid tights for you though I haven't really seen any around. I tried one of those D&G dresses the other day and it was AMAZING but it cost more than my share of the rent...couldn't really justify the purchase :-)

Target had some plaid tights last year and they are super affordable. Good luck finding some!
P.S. Sir Fleet is a brilliant name for a toy horse.
