I know I said I wasn't posting, but I can't not reply to help. Plus, I have no homework this weekend. ;)

Have you tried any consignment shops? You might want to look in the phone book under "secondhand clothing" or "consignment shops." Or Google "consignment shops" with your city of residence. Or, if you have enough time to wait for shipping, I found some long skirts online.

Thanks guys for all your great suggestions!! At this point I don't want to worry about shipping so I will probably continue to look at these second hand stores. Im also considering asking one of my aunts to see if she can make them since Ive heard its not too difficult to make skirts. :like:

I hope the snow doesn't snow you in! It's so wonderful that you get to enter in four days! (or five?? Can't do math this early!)

Dieu vous benisse!

NOT entering, sadly.

:blush:

But I'll be staying at the Novitiate for about four days.

We have had the occasional SSVM Nun come here to Christ in the Desert for personal silent retreats. Oh, and there are 891 more days until my anticipated Solemn Profession
