In spite of letters, fashion shows and in-store queries all pointing to the need for modest dresses, most designers and manufacturers have failed to get the message. You can spend hours in malls and boutiques or online and still come up with zero options. Consequently, many girls, with the help of their mothers, have turned to good old patterns and sewing machines to make their own prom...
The rise in crude oil has reached a record landmark price of 120 bucks a barrel. Even with inflation factored in, this still takes the cake.
