Any style, or colour you really like?" Anya asks.
"Well, for Angela," Vanessa starts, while gesturing to Angela, but is cut off.
"I was thinking we could go for an older look, something flattering but not over the top. And I want a fitted short dress, one that compliments my body. No lace, whatsoever, but I like a bit of sparkle. I want strapless of course and as for the colour, I want it to be dark ruby," Angela says, conceitedly. Demanding much? I mean, it's nice to know exactly what you want, but you don't have to say it in a snarky way.
